It was midnight in Ankh-Morpork's Royal Art Museum.
Unseen Academicals - Terry Pratchett
-
Demon was such a nasty word.
Covet - J R Ward

I hope so
although the way I see it, the whole idea of preordering is that you get it before or when it comes out in the shops, otherwise you might as well just get it from a shop... 
!Exactly! According to my little pre-order notebook it's not due out til October 6th or 7th so plenty of time
-
Yay they didn't email me, though !
Oh they will :friends0:Maybe it depends on when you pre-ordered it? I think I placed my order the first day it appeared on Amazon.
Have just bought The Lost Book Of Salem and Kevin McCloud's Grand Tour Of Europe - they're both for my mum but I'll read them before I hand the books over
-
Really? I'm sure your local bookstore can order it, but Amazon have The Lost Book of Salem.
The Book Depository also has this book in stock - I just ordered it from there for my mum
-
Got Ballad by Maggie Stiefvater & Covet by J R Ward in the post this morning and just got a dispatch notice from Amazon saying that the new Pratchett 'Unseen Academicals' is on its way
I'm having a book blast from the past at the moment and reading Pennington's Seventeenth Summer by K M Peyton & I have the two sequels, Beethoven's Medal & Pennington's Heir, to read when I've finished.

If you use the Book Depository they now accept Paypal as payment which means your card/bank details are never seen by anyone except yourself - hope that helps

Hello
Welcome to the forum! -
As for you Lady Scarlett.......pushing and your luck springs to mind right now
Not like I can run fast is it?
I've just spoken to my sister and she says the first record I bought was actually a Toyah single which I then promptly gave to her as a Christmas present one year -
Wasnt Cars by Gary Numan 1979???
OMG I were 16 then
I shan't say I was only 7 then *runs away fast*

I fancied him as well, but my heart belonged to Simon le Bon!

ScarletBella - I loved Duran Duran!
I did as well, I was madly in love with John Taylor
-
I can't remember for definite but I think it was Duran Duran with A View To A Kill - somebody bought it as a present for my birthday
-
I'm reading a querky little book by a Russian author, Boris Akunin about a young detective called Erast Fandorin, in the 1870s. Thoroughly enjoyable and I may seek out the rest in the series as there are quite a few.
I've read all the Akunin books except the latest one and think they're great. He also has another series featuring Sister Pelagia which is fairly good
-
Great review Michelle! I pre-ordered this a while ago and really looking forward to reading it
-
Captain Corelli's Mandolin - I just cannot get into that book, no matter how hard I try and I've given up on it permanently. Strangely enough, my mum also couldn't get into it so we have 2 useless copies of the book between us
-
I watched too and really thought it was good, I was also really shocked because the first ep only aired in America last week, so for once we're not behind! Hurrah!
I know, that shocked me as it's most unusual - looking forward to seeing what sort of character Jack Davenport is going to play.
-
Yep, they do - go their website and look for the OnDemand section, they should have it online there
I watched and absolutely loved it, can't wait for next week!

Hey Lauren, welcome to the forum
-
I was out for dinner tonight and had pasta with aubergine, courgette, onion, garlic, pecorino and mozzarella followed by a delicious caramel mousse
-
I had butternut squash, sage & parmesan risotto
-
Did you not notice Edward's elaborate hair-do? Hair gel doesn't fall from the skies, you know.
Rosalie and Jasper's extremely bad bleach jobs cost a fair penny too
-
Well, I should get my copy tomorrow hopefully. When I've finished the 6 books I seem to have on the go just now I shall start on it and let you know how I get on
-
Worth a try, if you're really not enjoying it just now there's no point forcing yourself to read it
