I'll have a think then.

Agreed!

I have a thing about that as well, and if it ruins any of the cover I get so annoyed!

Lol, I've got one going in the reading challenges thread. Although it's not a challenge. I was thinking about setting up a blog, for reviews and things on books and just to generally have a good rant. What do you think?

Everyone's having something chicken related tonight!

Haha.

Glad you are enjoying your reads. By the way, you can keep a list updated on one post by using the 'edit' button. I feel this helps me keep it in one list rather than make separate ones. Just and idea.

Ooer, of course King's of Leon have got some brilliant songs out at the moment!

Hey Kookie, my names Ben. What type of genre of books are you into? Or what's your current preference? Anyway, welcome to the forum, feel free to drop me a pm if you want to talk about anything with me, or just make a new friend.

Well I think I'll be getting on to more than that amount this year, we're only 16 days into the new year and I'm just starting my seventh of the year!

Always check how many pages there are before reading as well.

The Magicians Guild by Trudi Canavan. - I've decided to read the first in The Black Magician Trilogy, after hearing some good things about it. (I do think we have a thread on here, although I can't seem to find it ) Anyway, I'm getting that under way now, it's the week-end so should be getting very stuck into it. 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.. Looking forward to this one, let me know what you guys thought! I'll write a brief review when I've finished.

I'm still not taking a pic of mine, far to cluttered.

Argh, it seems my comment came out all wrong. I meant I wouldn't bother to count the books on my bookshelves that I haven't read or indeed make a list like some people have.

15!

That 3D one that's coming out soon looks quite good, My Bloody Valentine or something along those lines.

I was born in Barrow-in-furness, but don't have very pleasant memories of the place. I've lived in Bradford, West Yorkshire, since I was 4!

And I had chicken curry with Naan bread, delicious!

I finished Treasure Island just over 30min ago, so I thought I'd right a little review. Bare in mind its my first, and I'm not to sure if it's ok.. Treasure Island. - Robert Louis Stevenson. Synopsis. Following the demise of a thirsty buccaneer Captain Flint, young Jim Hawkins finds himself with the key to a fortune. For he has discovered a map that will lead him to the fabled Treasure Island. But a host of villains, wild beasts and deadly savages stand between him and the stash of gold. Not to mention the most infamous pirates to ever sail the high seas... Review. I for one thoroughly enjoyed it. It's a real turn-paging classic, that excites the reader from start to finish. At a mere 302 pages, Stevenson manages to fit in more entertaining scenes, and more interesting, cunning characters, than most authors would manage to fit into a trilogy. Robert Louis Stevenson just gets that balance between characters and action, perfect. From the tap-tap-tapping of blind man Pew's stick as he reaches closer to where young Jack Hawkins hides, to the commanding voice of Captain Smollett as he shouts orders at the crew. Packed through with action and sword-swishing buccaneers, I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a fast-paced book, that is rich with twists and turns throughout. 9/10.

Well the world of iTunes is too reliable as a source of music now!

I guess that makes me four!

Twilight Saga is one of my favourites! If you want to talk about it feel free to message me. ~Ben.

Admittedly I don't listen to the radio that much, mostly just because I have such an extensive amount of music on my laptop that I can delve into. When I do listen though, it's probably got to be The Pulse Of West Yorkshire. Not a bad radio station.

I completely agree. It was the first classic I ever read, just under 3 months ago, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
