[Anji]

I like threads like this because you can use them to try new things :thumbsup:

I'm reading

David Gemmell - Stormrider

I really like this author,i have read alot of his books and never been dissapointed, he writes fantasy stuff but with enough reality in them not to be sci fi.

[Deb]

I'm reading ..... This thread :lmao: :roll:

[Anji]

oh dear lol trust you to say that :roll:

I doubt you have time for books lol

[Siobhan]

I'm Reading to kill a mockingbird by harper lee for English, this is the second time I'm Reading it and we have to read it a third before November so by then I'll be bored of it

[Anji]

i know its supposed to be a classic but is it any good?? I get bored really quickly if books take too long to get going, i'm kinda like that with films too actually :hmm:

[Siobhan]

yeh it's quite good but I think you really need to study it to get a deeper meaning out of it. The beginning is actually the end of the book so you don't understand it until you read the whole book so I was a bit baffled to begin with but it pretty straight forward after that :-)

[Anji]

ah ok think i will give it a try at some point then, i love reading just before bed, really settles me down :-)

[Siobhan]

Yeah I always seem to fall asleep with the book open and then I lose my page although at the moment I go on my iPod touch before I go asleep and go on here or play this addictive cube games I've got on it. I really should be going now less than 6 & 1/2 hours til I have to get up.

[Kat]

To Kill a Mockinbird is one of the best books ever written...
I'm reading Knut Hamsuns 'Hunger'.

[Deb]

Kat as soon as I saw this thread I knew you'd find your way here Mrs Bookworm brainbox :hehe:

[KOSTAS]

i am reading Debs posts...

[Anji]

[KOSTAS]

i read books Anji..now the next lesson i give is at 17day sempteb..i have time to read other books and visit the forum

[bloodflowerz]

Hey there,

so there are actually other people out there reading real books?!;-)

I am presently reading "Eclipse" by Stephenie Meyer, the third volume of the four volume "Twilight" series, a kind of Vampire/Lovestory/Drama. Unbelievably addictive! It's interesting how I got to start reading these books - almost embarrassing... I absolutely LOVE the actress Kristen Stewart:hearts::hearts::hearts:. And she's going to be the lead star in the Film for the first book "Twilight".... I think the movie is coming out around mid-December. I highly recommend these books to anyone at all - there's something for everyone, a real joy to read and utterly addictive!

Metal!

Hey there Anji,

not so sure about that - book stores are actually reporting steadily rising sales! :-)

I think reading is extremely important, especially for younger people, it trains the imagination. I find it amazing (and sad) to see how some people have so little imagination left... So, maybe a book here and there?

[Anji]

my 2yr old loves her books, sometimes i get fed up of reading so much to her, but i keep doing it, i hope she never loses her excitement at reading books, she constantly goes to her box and brings me books to read :-)

there are a couple of waterstone bookshops near me but other than those i wouldnt know where to go for books to browse thru, if i know which author i want i usually use the net instead.

12 questions about estonia (a booklet about marya's homecountry)

[mellukas]

Right now it doesnt seem like fun. :P Its A4 frmat book, has more than 500 pages.. ive thought already several uses for it. for example, if someone breaks in, i can hit him/her with the book and he/she will be unconscious until the police come. Or I can use it as a coffee table..
