Last year I started properly keeping track. I keep a notebook with the title, author, start and finish dates and the number of pages in the book. Before that I just wrote down what books I'd read. I love my new system and wouldn't give it up!
I don't find this strange, I like to know how...
I had to choose between buying that or Filth (as my bag was already full by this point), I thought Acid House looked a bit better. :)
It's definately a new record for me that's for sure! My previous highest count of books was 11.:p
I went a little crazy book shopping today since I haven't had the chance in a while. Here's what I bought in charity shops:
Cradle and All - James Patterson (£2.00)
The Wind Singer - William Nicholson (£2.00)
Slaves of the Mastery - William Nicholson (£2.00)
Lucky - Alice Sebold (£2.00)...
If it's unreadable, even just a page of it, I don't think I'd read it... but I don't think I'd have the heart to throw a book out!
At the moment I have two rather damaged books that my boyfriend had forgotten to return to school. As he was about to throw them away I snatched them and shouted...
I don't tend to take my books out of my room unless they're going to be with me (i.e school or a trip to the living room) but I also have a problem with bookmarks. My last bookmark was an expired money off card, and as I finished one book and took it to my shelves to put it away, nice and...
When you're looking for a new house your first thoughts are "Where will I put the bookshelves?" and "How close is the nearest library or book store?"
When someone talks about an important part of a book you haven't read, but is on you "to-be-read" list you run out of the room screaming.

In no real order...

Unless his brother, Richard Pelzer, was in on it, I doubt it. I read Dave Pelzer's trilogy about a month ago and Richard Pelzer's 'A Brother's Story' soon after.
Not sure about the games, but there are two different types of Cowboy Bebop mangas, 5 volumes in total. Have a look at this page for more information... http://www.tokyopop.com/dbpage.php?propertycode=CBB&categorycode=BMG
After I finish The Lovely Bones for school I'm hoping to read these:
Shade's Children - Garth Nix
The Long Tea-time of the Soul - Douglas Adams
The Crow Road - Iain Banks
Hide & Seek - Ian Rankin
Along Came A Spider - James Patterson
I don't have a job, and at my school I don't have a computer log-on name so I can't go on there anyway... plus they ban people from looking at most sites... :(
There is also another book to do with the Old Kingdom (It may only be out in America though as I haven't seen it yet) called Across the Wall Tales of the Old Kingdom And Beyond, which is (I think) short stories about the Old Kingdom.
I also found another of Nix's books in a charity shop a...
Warning, may contain spoilers.
I loved the book when I read it earlier this year. I hadn't heard many reviews of it and more or less picked it up blindly from a charity shop shelf.
When I read it I felt like her death trapped her on the verge of her adolescence. Her sister became a mirror...
I first read the book last year and wasn't too impressed with it. I reread it a few weeks back as I'm going to be doing it this term in school. As I read I took notes, and after reading this thread it's helped me understand more about his dream of being the Catcher. I figured it had something to...
