  1. to be fair my isn't normally to bad - however when he's on holiday we have post delayed for days! However book is now here - yay
  2. I've spent the last couple of days really busy with re-arranging the caravans and also catching up on all the office work that I keep putting off for the two businesses! Wish I had a bit more time to read but my free time seems to go so quickly at the minute!
  3. My copy should be here tomorrow - missed the delivery Friday - oops!
  4. Wow they are beautiful shelves
  5. I'm popping to town tomorrow so i'll pick up a copy then
  6. I haven't been reading as much as I would like - I've been binge watching Orange is the New Black with the hubby in the evenings! Its rare to find a programme that ill watch for hours and that he will too so thats been nice. He is on a night shift tonight though and I'm very much looking forward to an evening of reading hehe!
  7. I'd be up for it too
  8. Congratulations on your new job sounds brilliant
  9. Ooops no I meant if you did another read like that id like to join! Was trying to read the topic and do a couple of other things yesterday so didnt quite make it clear hehe
  10. Popped into The Works yesterday and came out with these three - love the 3 for £5 offer. Unspeakable - Abbie Rushton With a Friend Like You - Fanny Blake The Lake of Dreams - Kim Edwards
  11. ooh this sounds quite fun - can I join hehe! I loved the Malory Towers series when I was younger.
  12. Hehe that is true - gutted I didnt read anything last night - little one was refusing to sleep yesterday and was up until late so by the time he nodded off I followed hehe! Fingers crossed he goes to sleep tonight early so I can read
  13. That's a good idea - I'll probably do a spoiler review of the series once I've read Mockingjay although I'm probably one of the last people to read the series
  14. 4) The Hunger Games: Catching Fire - Suzanne Collins Synopsis -After winning the brutal Hunger Games, Katniss Everdeen returns to her district, hoping for a peaceful future. But Katniss starts to hear rumours of a deadly rebellion against the Capitol. A rebellion that she and Peeta have helped to create. As Katniss and Peeta are forced to visit the districts on the Capitol's cruel Victory Tour, the stakes are higher than ever. Unless Katniss and Peeta can convince the world that they are still lost in their love for each other, the consequences will be horrifying\. The terrifying sequel to The Hunger Games. ​My Thoughts - I am really getting into this book series and I wish that it had loads more books as it is so good. Its quite hard to write my thoughts without spoiling the plot but its just as good as the first. I've already started the third and can't wait to read more. Rating - 5/5
  15. They were brilliant and so pretty! Just need to find a place to keep them now! Wow that would be a great car journey - would have to be a nice long one!
  16. Well I finished Hunger Games - Catching Fire last night and have already started Mockingjay! That series is so good!
  17. 3) Quidditch Through The Ages - J. K. Rowling Synopsis -The most checked-out book in the Hogwarts Library, and a volume no Quidditch player or Harry Potter fan should be without! If you have ever asked yourself where the Golden Snitch came from, how the Bludgers came into existence, or why the Wigtown Wanderers have pictures of meat cleavers on their robes, you need QUIDDITCH THROUGH THE AGES. This invaluable volume is consulted by young Quidditch fans on an almost daily basis. Proceeds from the sale of this book will go to Comic Relief, who will use your money to continue improving and changing lives -- work that is even more important and astonishing than the three-and-a-half-second capture of the Golden Snitch by Roderick Plumpton in 1921. My Thoughts - This was the final book for me in the Hogwarts Library set that I was given for Christmas. I really enjoyed this book and it was really fascinating reading about the history of Quidditch. I'd love to spend a few moments in JK Rowlings head as it must be a fantastic imagination. Rating - 4/5
  18. Oh you have to read it - I've just started the second book in the series and thats hooked me in too. Thank you same to you I'd already seen the first one in the series but am going to have to re-watch now I understand whats going on!
  19. I finished Quidditch Through the Ages and I've started on Hunger Games: Catching Fire.
  20. Hiya Good to 'see' you again How have you been?
  21. Thank you - I think I'm going to read the second book once I've finished my current read - I loved it that much hehe!
  22. thank you I'm hoping the other two are as good as the first - I'll be gutted if not!
  23. 2) The Hunger Games - Suzanne Collins Synopsis -Sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen regards it as a death sentence when she is forced to represent her district in the annual Hunger Games, a fight to the death on live TV. But Katniss has been close to death before-and survival, for her, is second nature. The Hunger Games is a searing novel set in a future with unsettling parallels to our present. Welcome to the deadliest reality TV show ever... My Thoughts - I've had this on my shelf for ever but have been put off reading it due to all the hype surrounding it. Well I wish I hadn't waited so long as it was absolutely brilliant and its been a long time since a book has got me so hooked. I just couldn't put it down and read the last half in one sitting. I'm also really pleased that I have the other two books in the series too so I can read these too before long. Rating - 5/5 (if I could have given it more I would have!)
  24. I really love it - its so pretty too will have to take a picture Thank you Happy reading too you too
  25. I finished The Hunger Games last night - wow amazing! I can't believe I left it this long to read it but thankfully I already have the other two books in the series. I started Quidditch Through the Ages this morning too.
