This is like Ben's reaction to Auntie Angela's box of seeds on Outnumbered, but worse!

Pleased to say I got several books for Christmas to add to my already vast collection! It would be a dull old world without them. _________________ MiS |

Me too. We always acquire books at this time of year. I'm currently reading Stephen Fry's new book which I'm enjoying - it's impossible not to read his words without hearing his distinctive voice speaking them!!! |

My daughter gets books every year (as well as other things) but it's a good thing to have books about. I not the most well read person in the world but I have always got one on the go even if it does take me a while to get though them.
Last Christmas I brought my 13 year nephew the first discworld book The Clour Of Magic by Terry Pratchet I was so excited for him to have this book as it is a great book and not even a very big one, he's still not read it, but I will keep trying.
I did well for books this time too, Warrior of Rome II: King of Kings (Warrior of Rome 2) loved the first one
also I got the Pillars of the Earth books by Ken Follett, I really enjoyed the tv series so requested the books for xmas, these could keep me going for a while.
Me and Daughter are going to read the Chronicles of Narnia this year for bed time, I've not read all of them before so looking forward to that. _________________ You will hear gospel and rhythm and blues and jazz, all those are just labels, we know that music is music. |

I got a Kindle for Christmas and have been busily downloading loads of 'classics' from Amazon, I've got about 20 so far and not had to pay for any of them.
I love books but this Kindle is a brilliant thing. |
