It is freaking freezing here!

[Tati]

I'd rather freeze than cook alive (which will happen in a week)

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I'm not sure which I'd prefer. That tends to be what we get in the uk, either freezing cold or boiling hot with no inbetween.

[Tati]

My reasoning is that when it's cold, you can always add a layer of clothes. However, when it's hot, there comes a point where removing a layer of clothes becomes impossible. Unless, of course, you have AC in your home.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

True. There's only so many clothes you can wear though, and heating costs a lot in the winter. A lot of old people die over here simply because they can't afford to heat their homes.

[Tati]

Well, here (Europe/UK) does get colder than in Brazil, but we don't have any heating in our homes, so it's cold both inside and outside. As for the cost of heating, I hadn't taken that into account, as I don't have any experience of that (my rent includes all the bills).

I have 4 layers on and i'm still cold. :(

[Tati]

where in the UK are you?

[Abi]

I'm in Birmingham. :)

[Tati]

Oh, I'm up north, in York, until Friday, that is. :)

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I'm in Leicester. There's a really cold wind today.

[Tati]

well, I haven't been outside today, as I'm sorting through my stuff, to decide what goes and what stays, but tomorrow I'll be going for some shopping

which reminds me I most definitely need to go shopping. It's been way too long since I last shopped for some clothes.

[Tati]

I haven't bought any clothes in a year...

[Rachmi]

I'm counting down on the release of BBC Sherlock season 3!

[Mishma]

Thanks Greta and Brooke:)

Anyway,nowadays I am getting addicted to assassins.Can anyone recommend me a good book featuring one?

[Brooke]

I have only read one book that has an assassin in it and that is Poison Study, but the assassin isn't the main character.

One of my favorite authors is stopping close to where I live on her book tour, I was wondering if I could bring my own book for her to sign or if I have to buy one there.

Did anyone see the new GR rules regarding reviews about authors? They're now deleting some shelves and reviews: http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1...

That is freaking disgusting. total censorship, and inappropriate. What happened to freedom of speech?

[Abi]

I can understand them deleting some reviews and shelves, because some i've seen in the past, have just been about the authors activities. (and have been quite rude in the process) and some of the shelves i've seen are really awful. (I seen one once, saying "Author should die brutally")
I just wished they'd see it both ways.
Authors can be really rude to reviewers too, and some have gone beyond rude.
If reviewers are going to get their freedom of speech censored, then authors should get their ability to reply back to reviews censored, too.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Fair enough to deleting reviews that read 'the author is a *****' but anything else just seems unfair. Especially as they are deleting reviews and shelves without prior warning, or giving people a chance to change things.

[Abi]

That's the thing i find really disgusting.
GR are deleting peoples thoughts and words, without warning them first, and that's a really disgusting approach.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

there's obviously a question over what counts under this new rule as well. How bad does it have to be to get it deleted?

[Mishma]

I just came across Jennifer L.Armentrout's post about GR's new policy.Even an author seems against this.
