Ah I phrased that badly, I saw it 'on' Waterstones (the website), I get all my books from Amazon ... I think it was like £6.00 or so new and £1 something second-hand, no contest :D
Yeh Devon's not exactly 'happening' lol but it's nice and quiet for reading I suppose , countryside and all...
Ok ...
Thanks for being blunt. It was the only image that would work when I tried (OK only a few times, I'm lazy) but I'll make an effort, just for you :rolleyes:

Does anyone here have an online journal / blog?
I wasn't sure where to post about this but I was curious, I'm presuming people who like to read alot would do this also :rolleyes:
I have one at livejournal, anyone else?
Alice
Hi :)
Where are you from? (Country, state, city...)
I am from Devon in England (the countryside) but I grew up for 10 years in a town called Hay-on-Wye (Y Gelli) on the Welsh border ... it's actually quite famous for its bookshops and the bookfair held in the castle
How old are you...
Lol cheers ... how are you finding Perdido Street Station? I saw it in Waterstones the other day and pondered on buying it but it looks kinda strange ... but then I like 'strange' books :)
Oh and I live in Devon (wooh!) not Manchester so I don't think we live near eachother :rolleyes:
Has anyone read 'Letters to Alice; on First Reading Jane Austen'?
It's by Fay Weldon, and it's about an author (Fay) writing to her neice Alice who isn't impressed with Jane Austen and she is trying to convince her otherwise ...
I've read quite a few of Jane Austens books but in LtA it gives...
I buy *all* my books ... very expensive but I always re-read them again and like you; I don't like other peoples stains etc!
Strange with the amount of books I read I haven't even got a library card
I've just realised I have forgotten to introduce myself, hey everyone!
I would introduce myself properly but Ive just wrote in my profile so meh ... I'm Alice by the way :)
Just wondering, are most people here young / old(er), writers, students, have a career involving literature ... or...
Yeh I'm strange ... I have one for the bus, one before bed, one for the bath ..:rolleyes:
Actually I'm reading The Odyssey at College so I don't really have much choice on that one :)
I'm reading 6 books at the moment :S
The Grim Grotto by Lemony Snicket, Letters to Alice (on first reading Jane Austen) by Fay Weldon, Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov, The Birds and other Short stories by Daphne DuMaurier, Lady Chatterleys Lover by DH Lewis and The Odyssey by Homer
I always have at...
