  2. When the Harry Potter books first came out I read up to half way through the 4th and lost interest for many years. A year or two ago I saw them in the oxfam shop for £20 and they were sitting on my shelf ever since. Quite a few of the books on my list are not my cup of tea any more, I've had them since I was like 15/16 but I want to read them to melt down my collection x
  3. I am quite a slow reader, and since I am trying to read all my older books first I think I will write a list to be read and then cross them off as I go. I will write a post of what I thought of each book too. I am aiming for 12 books this year. 1. Harry Potter & the Goblet of Fire - J.K Rowling 2. Harry Potter & the Order of the Phoenix - J.K Rowling - Currently reading 3. Harry Potter & the Half-Blood prince - J.K Rowling 4. Harry Potter & the Deathly Hallows - J.K Rowling 5. How to be good - Nick Hornby 6. My Booky Wook - Russell Brand 7. New Moon - Stephanie Meyer 8. Eclipse - Stephanie Meyer 9. Breaking Dawn - stephanie Meyer 10.Being Jordan - Katie Price 11.Whatever Love Means - David Baddiel 12.Memoirs of a Geisha - Arthur Golden
  4. I have one bookshelf (Smallest room and all that ), and my books are over spilling now so I have a pile next to the bed also. I however can part with books - unless I adored them too much, like Dorian Gray & A clockwork orange etc.. Others I give to my mother, whom also gives me crazy amounts of books in return too. She isn't helping my book addiction in the slightest.
  5. Coheed and Cambria - Unsure of which song..
  6. Needs to start reading a bit more!

  7. I have re-read the first 3 Harry Potters, The Kite Runner & To Kill a Mockingbird. I don't see much point in re-reading things usually though.
  8. Clumsy - Fergie Eighty-five - Gym Class Heroes Teeth - Lady GaGa I'll stand by you - Glee The last song - Rihanna This is the new S*** - Marilyn Manson So happy I could die - Lady GaGa Change your mind - All American Rejects don't stand so close to me/young girl - Glee No other place - Hollywood undead Mines quiet embarrassing... I have got better music on there... promise!
  9. I am so happy everyone here seems to like 'To Kill a Mockingbird' - Its my favourite book EVER. However, The book I would make everyone read is - A Clockwork Orange. I think its fabulous.
  10. I always try my hardest to finish at a chapter, however this not always being possible I try to finish at the bottom of the page.

  12. I have quite a few... A black cat one, a hello kitty one I cross-stitched, random card pictures I have cut out... BUT I am terrible to my books, I fold the corner usually, I bend the book right back alas bending the spine, and once I have finished reading a book its usually quite in a sorry state - HOWEVER... Thats how I read, and I tend to buy my books second hand anyways as I prefer reading a battered book to begin with... I wont ramble on how I love the smell of books.. Eeep x
