  1. Thank you :D It's so cute!!

  2. Thanks so much :). I look forward to reading it!

  3. Hey :) Just thought I'd thank you because I saw your review for A Certain Slant of Light and it sounds really good so I added it to my wishlist! I saw that Noughts and Crosses was on your most wanted too - Very good choice, I love that series!

  4. Hey :) Noticed you're reading The Notebook. What do you think to it?

  5. Haha, I know. After finding your favourite book/series, nothing compares to it!

  6. Hehe, true, how are you? :)

  7. Yes, I think I read it at some point last year. I thought it was really good too :). I like the film as well. Have you read A Walk To Remember by him?

  8. Thank you. :) I'm doing good. It's snowing again though and I'm not a fan! Reading wise, I'm about halfway through a collection of short stories by F. Scott Fitzgerald. How about you?

  9. The film made me cry as well! It's so sad. I actually thought the film was better than the book but it's definitely worth reading if you enjoyed the film. :)

  10. Ooh, I was talking about that the other day with my sister. That's one I would like to read too. *Adds to wishlist* :) I've not seen the film but I've heard about it. It sounds like a lovely idea!

  11. Hello! :) I take it that you've read Slumdog Millionaire too then? How did you find it? I'm over halfway through but I just don't have much time to read it at the moment. There's several things that I really love about it but others that I'm not so keen on!

  12. I'm going to have to go with Noughts & Crosses by Malorie Blackman. I just love it too much. Yours is The Time Traveler's Wife, right? I'm reading that next :)

  13. I'm loving the insight into India and the variety of the culture, it's really fascinating, if not very harrowing at times. I also really like Swarup's style, he's a great story teller, I think! I love the idea of the book, how events from his life has led to him knowing the answers but I think due to the nature of that, it reads a little like numerous short stories linked together. So starting each chapter kinda feels like reading a different book for a few pages. I'm also not completely hooked on it at the moment and am not that attached to it.

     

    I'm off to read your review now! :)

  14. I am looking forward to reading The Time Traveler's Wife. When I see that people love it so much, I know it must be something special. Yeah, I went through an obsessive Jodi Picoult phase, hehe. I loved The Pact and Nineteen Minutes, have you read those ones? I did like My Sister's Keeper too but didn't think it was anything too special. Maybe I should read it again, it was a few years ago!

  15. No, I haven't seen the movie yet but I plan to at some point. And yeah, exactly, I think he could have written it in a way that would make the book more of a whole rather than lots of separate parts. I just read your review and it must be amazing to have knowledge from your own life when reading the book, having visited the exact places he was describing! :)

  16. I'm finding the Fitzgerald stories very tedious. I can't wait to finish the book. I'm tempted to give up as I've read four out of the seven.

     

    Ooh, wow :). The 7th HP book. I really hope you enjoy it! I want to re-read it just because I feel like I've forgotten most of it. Happy reading!

  17. Hi Lexie. Saw you're reading the Vampire Diaries. How are you finding them? I've only read the first one. :)

  18. Hi Gyre :) Glad you liked the pictures, hehe. I thought you might ;)

  19. I can only imagine what a novel by Fitzgerald would be like! His writing style not to my taste at all. Hehe, I'm glad I've not got an exam on it! I had exams on Of Mice And Men in school. I always find that if you have to read a book for a class, then you can never enjoy it the same way.

     

    Yeah, I always tried to re-read the previous ones before starting a new HP book or I would've forgotten! :) Good luck with it

  20. I'm good thanks, how are you? To be honest with you, I wasn't impressed at all. The only good thing for me was that it was very easy to read. I don't think I'll read the rest. I hope you enjoy it though! :)

  21. Thanks Beth :) I got all of my data back so I'm so relieved! Hope you're doing well x

  22. Hey. A friend of mine is great with computers and he thinks he's able to save all of my documents, I just hope he manages to do it! My family bought me a new laptop for my birthday but I'll be so gutted if I've lost everything from my old one :( Thanks for asking.

  23. Hey. I'm going to assume you like Twilight? :) Come and join the Twilight group if you like? Welcome to the forum!

  24. Sorry I didn't get around to replying to your message! :) You mentioned your TBR pile, how many do you have? Mine just keeps growing, it'll never shrink! Which books are you looking forward to the most?

  25. Hello! :) I'm good thanks, how are you? I know! I don't want to delete any Rob love (:lol:) so I've been saving it all in there. I'll have to go through it all. I've read the first three books! x
