I'm doing a buddy on Gone with the Wind by Margaret Mitchell starting April 25th, and we've decided to take it slow because the book is really long. You're more than welcome to join :) It'll probably take us at least 1 month to get through it

Jora Jordan | 260 comments So, why is it that no matter how far apart your book requests from the library are put in. They still all come in at the same time. I have 3 books now requested more than a month apart and there all in within just 1 week.

Maybe they're like buses? You wait ages for one and then 3 turn up?

I have the same problem. And my mom has over 1500 books in the living room so self space is kind of limited. Still haven't read most of them and just had a birthday, got over ten new books. There still coming in. It's a great present but will take forever to read through them all.

Omg yes!! This is so true. I sometimes go on a requesting spree and then I don't hear anything for 2 months and then suddenly I get all 40 books at once >.<

yeah, shelf space is a nightmare! My eldest aunt has kind of an eidetic memory about books (she never reads one book twice, but still remembers everything), so I inherit all her books. and I still go and buy new ones! :'(

I've watched it already, it came out yesterday for me, and I thought it was pretty blah, to be honest


message 5588: by Victoria (new)

Victoria Scott | 2367 comments Oh really? I haven't seen either of them (I know, I will!), I'm just taking their word for it :)


message 5589: by Tati (new)

Samia Ruponti (snoebell92) | 451 comments Anyone from Nepal here? or do you know somebody who's there? I just want to know that everybody is alright. There was a huge earthquake today, and 876 people are already dead in there. We felt the tremors too and we are two countries away!

I just want to know all my friends are safe! :( :(

Rachael (classycupcakezz) | 5933 comments After being a nook user for 5 years I have officially made the switch.. My charging port stopped working and I was tired of buying new nooks! So I got the kindle paperwhite today.. I'm so excited about it!


message 5598: by Rachael (new)

Rachael (classycupcakezz) | 5933 comments @Tati I've never heard of it, what is it?


message 5599: by Tati (new)

Tati It's like Kindle Unlimited, but some of the Big Five (biggest publishing houses) have books there.

It's not Kindle compatible, however.


message 5600: by Rachael (new)

Rachael (classycupcakezz) | 5933 comments I see.. Is it a website? Do you download the books to your computer or what?
