I think the most I have spent on a ,non text book, book was $40 for a very beautiful book of birds by the Audubon Society and it was half the cover price. I buy everything used or on sale too, If I absolutely can't wait I check it out from the library :)

Hello & welcome :)

I could never get rid of my books, I have many old, beautiful books that belonged to my grandparents. I moved around 1000 books to Germany, around Germany, and then back to the USA, one of the first German phrases I heard roughly translated to "shit, that's a lot of books" :) I just could never...

The Redshirts is the only one on the list I have read. I liked it quite a bit but I loved Star trek, I am glad it won too :)

I hardly ever get around to writing reviews anymore, I keep a notebook but even it just gets a quick jot :) Gone Girl, I must admit I only read due to the hype. Every podcast, forum and book club was on about it and I caved under the pressure of my own curiosity. It was a quick read it pulled...

I just bookmarked your blog and look forward to reading through it tomorrow :)

What did you think of Gone Girl? When I first finished I wasn't sure if I liked it but now after a few weeks it has grown on me.

I will have to look for this next library run, I have read Grapes of Wrath, Of Mice and Men, East of Eden. East of Eden , I loved it was my favorite by him so far, definitely a close look a morality or the lack of, it has one of the most evil characters I can remember ever reading about :)

Hi & welcome :)

I can get stuck watching dubstep videos all day :) Crave You - Adventure Club

I have a couple I like, the first that came to mind is the 'Books, so many books' page :) I will look and see what the others are.

I love Downton Abbey and am anxiously waiting for season 4, meeanwhile Goodreads has a list of books for Downton fans and I have been reading through it :) So far I have enjoyed most of them. http://www.goodreads.com/list/show/20942.Read_in_place_of_watching_Downton_Abbey

I still listen to Pandora to try and find new songs but get frustrated with it for the same reasons you mentioned SFG. I find myself using Spotify more often these days, it is not good super good for finding new music but you can make a playlist and actually listen to the songs you added :)

I am not sure if there has ever been an abundance of young readers but for now, I think it may have something to do with all the other competing media. When I was younger I don't know if we all loved reading but on a rainy, boring day it was all you had to do, we didn't have cable, Internet or...

I read that Kobo was Toronto based, it is still hard to find down here in North Carolina, so I would have to order one most likely. I am very fond of tablets as well, but (this is embarrassing to admit) I tend to get distracted by the games. I will spend hours on Pocket Frogs and get no reading...

I am leaning towards a Kobo, for my first e-reader :) mainly because I have heard you can register your account with an independent bookstore of your choice, then your store gets credit for books bought by you. Does anyone with a kobo have any info on how easy this is to do? And I heard you can...

I don't think anyone was proposing ICE be forced to let us join or any changes to your policies. I was just curious, there's not really any information about it on the bar side and honestly the above that you posted is the only post I have seen on a BAR thread from an ICE member. So, I take it...

I do the same Ell, I have an IPod that was one of the first, it's like a brick compared to the new ones but I love it and it still works :)

Well I would think it would be weird for them as well, to know this other forum can read all that they post but not contribute anything. I still don't know if they can do the same here. Maybe we are the ghostso_O

Just recently I was scared about this possibility all over again, when I was at the Smithsonian there was an exhibit of meteorites that had landed in people's homes :eek: One came crashing through while they were watching television and another the woman woke up one morning and saw it lodged in...
