    No problem. :)

  2. That sounds very interesting!
  3. I'll get started now! Edit- Well, a bit later.
  4. I always dip into peoples blogs, I find other peoples opinions of books interesting. I'm 15, so maybe I'm just the right age!
  5. Don't even get her started. Read her review, you'll see how much she likes it.
  6. Lol, I'd much prefer to get stuck-in to my complete collection of every James Bond film. I got a box-set with them in for Christmas, it includes Casino Royale. It was
  7. Ha, I've read Nic's review, and I read your general one in the early hours of this morning. Mixed opinions, but I'll be certainly seeing how it goes. As for that repetition comment, I've heard a lot about that. Is it a major flaw to the story-line?
  8. Afternoon Roxi! Mine isn't either really.
  9. Stumbled onto Inkheart and I've heard some good things and some bad. I'll give it a read and see what I think. Anyone else read it that wants to comment?
  10. :D even.* Drat those typos.
  11. Still new to reviews, this is only me second, bare with me guys! Comments on it would be appreciated. The Magicians Guild - Trudi Canavan. ISBN: 978-1-905654-10-9. The brief synopsis from back. After five hundred years of order, the magicians' guild's worst fear had been released - An untrained magician is lose on the streets.. Review Well, after hearing good things about this book, I was very eager to give it a go. I'm happy to say it didn't disappoint! The story is centred around a young slum girl, Sonea who is hunted by the magicians guild, for her rogue magic. What makes this book stand out is that it is packed with action. You feel like you are on your own journey with Sonea, and you will her on in her race through the slums away from the magicians that hunt her. The characters and plot are very well written; from the myseterious group that call themselves the Thieves, that know everything and anything that is happening, to Harrin and Cery and the gang of youths that make it there business to stand up and make themselves noticed. Twist and turns are ripe through this book, and this what makes you keep turning the pages to the very end. Be prepared from some very interesting shocks and surprises. I would recommend this book to fantasy lovers out there, that maybe take an interest in magic and deception. I will be looking forward to reading the sequel, entitled The Novice as soon as I can get hold of it. 10/10 from me, a thrilling read!
  12. Evil. My love for pringles is dwindling.

  14. Uh-oh!
  15. Well.. It, um.. never happened! Hm, Sunday dinner for me tonight!
  16. I'm certainly not going to be making a big effort to watch this then.
  17. I think we should just generally say that all pringles are amazing. (Y)

    I'd love to learn piano/keyboard, it's common knowledge in my music class that I'm shockingly bad. My guitar skills make up for everything tho!

    Fair enough, I was lucky enough to learn how to read music so that's helped me a lot while playing.

    Well I guess I should have said that I play both, just my acoustic more.
  24. Well into Magicians Guild now (pg330 or thereabouts.) Was hoping to have finished it by now, but not been having the best of days so haven't had much chance. Enjoying it a lot though, got me turning the pages! I will right a review when I've finished.
