And if you were worried about finding Tithe and Ironside to match your Valiant, they're
here:
http://www.bookdepository.co.uk/book/9780689860423/Tithe
and here:
http://www.bookdepository.co.uk/book/9781847380630/Ironside
About AU$13 each. Paperback and matches yours.
Seekbooks has them for $15 each.
And just saying again, they're really good books. If there was a series I'd buy that the library already has, it would be that (not counting Twilight of course... or Harry Potter)
PS. I left another message earlier
Yay!! Manga love! Paradise Kiss is the most awesomest! (and guess what... *whispering* i have the third one!)
I'd like to hear your opinion on the 'scary spiral' manga :)
oh jeez "you must get them"! i'll get there i'll get there! lots to buy! Well I know I'll definitely get all of Paradise Kiss. Most likely all of The Dreaming (coz it's only 3 volumes). Most likely the rest of Bizenghast (I think its only 5 and i like it). Model is iffy - I think I'll get volume 2 and see how I like it... see if it just has a slow start. So yeah... lots to buy, not to mention all the other manga series I want to read gahhh! and novels gahhhhh!! and graphic novels gahhhhhhh!!! too... much... to... buy... collapse.
--E (mystery is my middle name! ...oh wait... that would make me 'Emma MYSTERY Wall' :S "I am the MYSTERY wall! Don't hang paintings on me or I'll eat them... and other MYSTERIOUS stuff!")
Ooh look you've been adding books!
:)

By the way Borders has the same vampire knight as your first one (with the dust jacket), so if you want them all like your 2 and 3 you'll probably need to get them online. Maybe. There might be other bookstores with the other version. But really its mostly only the big bookstores that have manga.
>>Lol, Well can it get any worse that 30 days of night?
Probably, but I haven't read 30 days of night yet. But it would have to be pretty bad to contend with books of blood, I'd say.

I agree, so many books!

I think I did see death at a funeral. Is that the one with the freaky dwarf guy?

And you should watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer if such an opportunity arrises (eg. trip to video store, library? (my library has it)). It's BRILLIANT!

--E
Nice!
What about Lenore?
Oh, and let it be known, I've already warned you there's some pretty gross stuff in Books of Blood. So don't blame me.
Oh cool! I wants me some shirts from the old U.S. of A!

Well... GRRR at you!
I can't be bothered making up no comebacks so... yeah.

--E *grr*
Yay! Books!

Stupid paradox! Oh well. So everything go back to norman with the reaper things coz it's all fixed.
But everyone loved R's undies so much that she gets swarmed by a mob of papparazi people who dack her again and take photos and put them on the internet! Then they completely flatten her to a pancake and E laughs at her!!! Ha. Ha. Ha. It's all R's fault for wearing such flashy undies, though!

--E *in danger of quoting doctor who is response to R's "superior being" declaration*
That's cool (about Dead Girls' Dance)
Glad you liked The Blue Girl :)

Damn! It appears you have some sort of speed enhancing ability. OH! I just remembered! I can teleport anywhere in time or space! First I'm going to teleport back in time, dack you, so you're waddling along like a penguin and look really stupid, and then I'll teleport to the present right in front of you, and then I'll go back to when I teleported to the present and keep doing that until there are like 9 copies of myself all standing around you and you will be amazed at my superior special abilites! And then I zap you into the past and let you live to death! ULTIMATE VICTORY IS MINE!!!
Or is it? DUN! DUN! DUNNNNN!!!!!
Tune in next comment to find out how R responds to E's superior skills!!!
--E *holding awkward victory pose*
Hey, you still want me to bring The Dead Girls' Dance?
Mum says we might get down March 1st.
Also, note my confusion below. I have SO thwarted you!
--E *lying incredibly still*
Hehe. I am confused by this 'opening bar'. I meant the kind of bar like on the monkey bars, so you can't really open it and get some chocolate. Either way, I seem to have lost some of my mystery in that embarrassing fall. I shall make that up by lying incredibly still on the ground so you think I have a problem, but I DON'T! MYSTERYYYYY!!!!!! And my butler takes his hat back and gives you a good hard beating for such poor behaviour. You have SO lost your mystery well bad!!!
YAYY! I got it! (book quest)
OK. This little cake thing is invisible and I eat it and you're like "whaaah?" and I ignore you and keep eating it. Mysterious enough? OH! AND I have to sit strange! Hmmm. I hang from a bar all the time, and my butler dude has to carry this bar around with me hanging from it. I also don't wear a skirt/dress :P Or is this becoming more stupid than myserious...
OK!!! Now I'm gonna give you a book to find!
This is a companion book to a series of books both you and I own, but only I have in my LibraryThing library. Neither of us have this particular book in our LibraryThing library. The cover is a primary colour.
--E *bites an invisible little cake thing, while hanging from bar*
Oh, and you can add Ines as a friend if you want - you know, the one you met with the glasses and crazy hair and the parents you couldn't understand? Yeah, her username is estreladomar, which means starfish in portuguese, since she's portuguese. Then you can have MORE friends! yayyy!
No, I haven't seen Ghost Whisperer.
It is Rare Creature!
Ooooh! That's tricky. Just a min...
lol at your hat :P
By the way, I think that's Harry below that said 'hello', 'it's me Emma', 'hello' and 'u smell funny'.
Sorry about that.
OK, is it the Graveyard Book? Seems to fit all the categories...
--E (eats a little cake thing. whoever thought being mysterious could taste so delicious :P I'm so much more mysterious than your big hat!)
u smell funny
hello
it's me Emma
hello
The Blue Girl isn't in your library though.
Oh my god! Their house burnt down??!!! That's TERRIBLE!
The weather sounds horrible. Apparently it got to 46 degrees here :(
You got Dancing Eye Issue One right as the extra. Try again for my mooch :P This is a fun game. Give me something to search for!
Whisper of the heart... looks cute :)
I watched Underworld today. You know, the new film in cinemas, Underworld 3: Something about the Lichens? Yeah, I've got Underworld 1+2 out from the video shop to watch before we see it in cinemas. It's pretty good. Got vampires and werewolves :D A bit too much guns for my liking, but it was still good. The main character Selene has a cool coat.
I've also started watching Buffy from season 1. I really like it :)
Another movie I'm looking forward to is Coraline. Did I tell you about that?
And also Watchmen.
--E (super mysterious, huh?)
Hey, you should really read The Blue Girl, since you've got it. I promise it's really good!
...You haven't lost it have you?
And I've stuffed a box full of books for you guys! Most of them are our old picture books. But there is like no space left so if you want me to bring anything else it had better be thin! no, don't worry, I can bring something else if you want :P
I'm sorry to annoy you. I promise I won't poof on you again! *fingers crossed behind back, cheeky grin*
OOOH! *excitement* A book came in the mail from the UK!!! Did I tell you about BookMooch? Anyway I mooched a book from someone in the UK and it ALREADY arrived! YAY! AND I got a special little extra book thing that's really good.
Here's a challenge for you: figure out what this bookI mooched is just by navigating my tags in my library :) BONUS points for finding the special surprise book!
I CAN HAVE IT??? WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cute possums :P
1 question: do they teach the word f--- in English class?
No, I actually did understand you. You're not going mad. You're just as sane as I am. (get the reference?)

...

...

Oh, right. *unpoof*
OMG a SUPERNATURAL POSTER??!!! EEEEEEK!!!! SOOOOO COOOOOOOL!
They must be BIG projects!
Nice! A French student? That's awesome!
What you're doing in MM sounds great!
Hmmm. I would be wary showing JTHM to anyone! Did you show this Julien guy it?
Yayyyy! HP and PotC!!!!
Yes...you're making complete sense Rachel...

...

...

*poof! I disappeared*

PS my macaroni cheese BURNS!
I went back to school on monday. It's pretty good. Physics is better than I expected. I like my teacher, though apparently the other physics teacher is like UNBELEIVABLY SUPERNATURALLY INCREDIBLE! But I haven't had him before, so I wouldn't know the difference :P
How's your school going? Got homework already?
OH GOD! Don't let him anywhere near the computer!!!
Oh, David's book isn't his present. It's a hand-me-down! (Although, it would definitely pass as new.) Same with Kate's. Aren't I a loving cousin? Dad's still working on the Doctor Who game, but I doubt it will be done in time. Actually, all he's done is brainstorm and collect a few pictures! Don't know if mum has a backup plan - if she'll get a cheese or something :P
I MADE the bag! Aren't I so talented? Want to know how?
Step 1: Take a Borders plastic bag
Step 2: Write 'TO GO TO BENDIGO' in permanent marker in the tiny white area
Step 3: Stuff your crap in it that's going to go to Bendigo
I think I'm going to get a paid account coz I *really* like this site. When its convenient for mum, since I'll be using her mastercardy thing or something (but I'll pay her back). It's pretty cheap, anyhow, even for a life membership. I hope it isn't just PayPal, coz mum doesn't like that.

Oh dear. Are you dying?
Hello. Wondering, which website did you end up using for the books?

Also, I've got some surprises for David and Kate.
DON'T TELL THEM!
David is getting my Doctor Who 2009 Annual, since I've finished with it. I thought he'd get some joy out of that.
For Kate I've got a fairy diary with a little lock on it. Never used. Probably never opened. I guess she can't really write yet, can she? Anyway, I didn't want it, and mum said Kate'd like it.
I've got a bag saying 'TO GO TO BENDIGO' now!
:D
I *heart* organising! Just not my room. Except for my bookcase, which I've obsessively organised. I seriously just stare at my bookcase for half an hour each day, so I'm bound to notice if something's not in place. And every now and again I'll reorganise my book into a better configuration. Books are nice to look at, yes?

Oh, and I really liked the manga Paradise Kiss. You can see my review here: http://www.librarything.com/work/63053/reviews/40819869
Don't worry about the other review. I don't really understand what they're going on about. Anyways, he's a guy, and the manga's aimed at girls, so its no wonder he rated it so low :P

Oh my, this is a long comment. I wonder if you can be bothered reading it all.

--Emma

:)

*likes wasting comments*
Ok. I'll bring $11 next time I see you! Should have enough by then! AND Books of Blood and Lenore 1-3.
Gotta keep reminding myself!

$11
Blood
Lenore
Ahhh. Silly internet payments.
ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!
So what's a fifth of the postage?
Did you mean www.seekbooks.com.au because there is no www.seedbooks.com.au ?
So how much will I owe you? I'll pay half of postage if Midnight Alley is all you're getting.
I'm not sure. I guess use the cheaper one. It can't go too wrong, can it? I guess you're like desperate to get this book, right?
But I LIKE having all of them! Besides, I have given them different ratings (any excuse).
Maybe I'll upgrade to a paid account. May have to use some of my bank money which I oh-so-hate to do.

Well, I do have the first two, so I'd like to complete my collection. Plus, it's cheap.
Awww. Thanks best cousin in the world!
Dammit! I have no room left in my library. I can only fit 2 more book :O
Remember, it's african for BEAUTIFUL!
They both seem to have good prices. If you have the money, could you possibly get a second copy of Midnight Alley? It would probably make postage better value. Of course, I'd pay you back. Or possibly pay you in advance, if I manage to cut back my spending in the near future. I already owe money :P

Tell me how you go, anyway.

Mmm. Manga can get expensive. WHY?! WHY so many volumes???

Note to self: Bring 'Books of Blood' and 'Lenore 1-3' to Bendigo. Nothing else?
OMG the baseball scene was my FAVOURITE!! I love how Carlisle like swung up towards the camera, and Jasper did that cool flippy thing with the bat! It was all soooo cool! And the running and the jumping and the hitting - it gave you a real sense of their superior speed, strength etc. And of course, the music was amazing!! Everyone seems to like that Paramore song...what was it? Decode! It's pretty cool too.

Would you like me to bring Books of Blood to Bendigo next time (probably David's birthday)? Any other books? I'm almost finished Lenore v.3, so you can have the whole Lenore series if you want. They're very funny, in a cute/stupid/psycho kind of way. Emphasis on the cute. I've been trying to find The Dreaming v.2 EVERYWHERE, but it's all SOLD OUT!! Arghh! I should have bought it when we were in the city together. But I got another manga called Bizenghast, which I'm really liking. I still need to read Paradise Kiss v.1, which is another I bought - looks interesting.

You back at school yet?
One more thing: I don't have Moon Phase anymore :P
I traded it on www.bookmooch.com
I didn't really like it anyway.
Sorry.
Oh, I should warn you, Books of Blood is pretty explicit. But I would reccommend reading the story Dread in it. I also liked Pig Blood Blues. Those two are less explicit, yet more creepy/scary, from my memory. Dread is epic scariness, like in the psychological kind of way.
Yo Rachook!
Go here: http://www1.auspost.com.au/international/
It's my new source of amusement! See what countries prohibit in the mail.
Some of my favourites:
--UK prohibits horror comics
--Many prohibit chain letters
--One country prohibits BINOCULARS
--Papua New Guinea prohibits birds nests. Yeah I'm really gonna send a birds nest to PNG!
Aww really? For an itsy bitsy wittle mousey? Gran is funny.
You're welcome!
:)
One of the arguments FOR getting Zoo was that Gran wouldn't stay anymore :P
Ooh look! You added Little Vampire! Doesn't it look cute? You can read the first few pages here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/reader/1596432330/ref=sib_dp_pt#reader-link
Minotaur has it in stock now, but I have no money :(
hehe. Funny.
Glad you're liking Vampire Knight.
The rat is REAL. She was already named when we got her. She's called Zuri which is african for beautiful, but I call her Zoo. She's white and grey.

When you say you finished Vampire Knight, do you mean just the first volume?

OMG that's so funny. Gran has a Wii?? So when we come up to Terang we can bring along mario kart and have a good old time :)
Happy Australia Day!!
Did you watch Doctor Who last night?
Oh, by the way, did I tell you
I GOT A RAT!!!
:D
Here is The Graveyard Book in the UK amazon store: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Graveyard-Book-Neil-Gaiman/dp/0747569010/ref=sr_1_1?ie=U...
mmmmm. That's a nice, long URL :P

Haha. The Grudge.

I have 'Guess I'll die another day' as my wallpaper :)
Good morning!
ooh! There's a 30 days of night movie? Nice! I think I'll stick with the book for now.
LOOOOVE JTHM!!!!! bahahaahha!
oooh! Vampire Knight is good! But you have to like buy heaps of them, because the story moves pretty slowly, especially the progress in their relationships.
They don't have The Graveyard Book? That's odd. It's quite a popular new book. Sure you're looking in the kids section? I think it could be there rather than YA, but maybe not.
xx
Haha, Did gran hear georgia call him maggot?
Mum found the eye of a witch very funny. She says she can call David an eye of a witch.

By the way, if you like money too much, you can read Vampire Knight for free at either of the following places:
http://www.onemanga.com/Vampire_Knight/
http://www.mangafox.com/page/manga/series/84/vampire_knight/
And if you don't like money, you can always preview the manga for free and then buy it if you like it.
Of course, all this is unnecessary if your library has it.
Weeeeheeeee!!!!!
Squee came in the mail just then along with 2 other books!
:D
And incase you didn't notice the post below, NOTICE IT!
Especially that last link.
Absolutely HILARIOUS!!!
Why, isn't she a clever little duckie!

OMG I found this:

OMG so freakin HOT!!!
And another :)

By the way, you may not want your mum to see it, so be careful.

You should also look at this stuff. HILARIOUS!! It's Death Note - kinda parodies.
http://silentreaper.deviantart.com/gallery/#Death-Notes
Awww. That's sooo cute!
She really liked those rides, didn't she :P
If she comes to our house maybe we could set up a boogie board ride down the stairs! I'm sure your mum would be thrilled!
I'm glad you're enjoying JTHM!
:)
I think you should read Uzumaki! It's freaky brilliant!
I just have to find the next 2 volumes...
Curse you voluminous manga! (If that is actually a real word, and if it makes sense in that context.)
Sorry, I just had too much fun messing with you :P
I'm going to the shops :)
Exactly!
yes. confused.
I understand.
haha. I so get what you find funny :P
Here is the manga series of The Ring if you're interested:
http://www.librarything.com/series/The%20Ring%20Manga
Harry might want to sell his DS to gran, coz he doesn't play it much.
Does she want it for like the Brain Training and such?
congrats on the touch.

I just went to a cheap bookstore out in the dodgy suburbs and you could get 20 manga books for $50!!! Pity they all were like no.9 in a series or just weren't interesting.

Oh yeah. About the manga I'm reading.
I really like The Dreaming and Bizenghast, and I'm looking for the next one in both of them. Moon Phase and Mark of the Succubus were 'meh', and I won't be looking for the next ones. I've read 1 chapter of Uzumaki and I'm very much liking it so far. Will probably be getting the next one. It's horror :)
Did you know the story of The Ring was originally Japanese? Pretty cool, huh?
Hah. Hah. Hah.
So what did Gran say she'd get you?
Yay for me and my helper badges! lol.
Oh and I read The Dreaming v.1 and I really like it and I went to the shop and they didn't have v.2 only 1 and 3 :(
But I got me some other manga while I was there. They were called Bizenghast, Mark of the Succubus, Moon Phase, and Uzumaki. I'll let you know how they go, but you can see them all in my library.
Oh, and you left Dead Girls' Dance here. I just found it on my chair :P
I'll keep the bookmark in so you can keep reading when I see you next.
Hi Debbie!
What you doing kicking your daughter off the computer? The computer provides her with essential skills and crap. It's EDUCATIONAL. Mhmm.
:P
You don't need to tell your mum this message btw.
I'm not surprised a guy was staring at you, with your face and all. jk :P
Gotta love the face jokes!
But, yeah, laughing yourself silly from a comic is not the ideal way to become inconspicuous.
You gotta tell me how you go with those books yeah?
Oh, and I forgot to put my name on them, so don't forget they're mine!
-The Blue Girl
-JTHM
-The Dead Girls' Dance
Is that it?
I'm tagging them 'rachel' so I know where they are and don't freak out when I can't find them :P
Not that I'm going to read them anytime soon, but, you know, I do spend a lot of time just gazing at my bookshelf.
I'm gonna miss you, Chookie!
Yup. That's the same book i ordered.
Yeah, you really scared me to pieces there.
LOL...I have an edward shirt, too. *also happy* I got for Xmas. That is so frickin' weird b/c I'm wearing it right now. It says You Are My Life Now on the back. It has edward on the front. I just adore edward. That's so cool that ur reading Glass Houses. I'm still reading that series...it's one of my fave series. I'm reading Lord of misrule, the 5th book. I'm still waiting for Carpe Corpus, the 6th book. Do u like it???

Pixie 0_o
I HAVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT READING ERAGON BUT PEOPLE SAY ITS BAD. DO YOU THINK SO?
hehe. Chookie seems like such a natural nickname for Rachook :P
I found this group:
http://www.librarything.com/groups/doctorwho
Maybe you could check that out.
Chookie! We gots like 44 books in common! Wooh!
"Mmmm. New teeth. That's wierd. So where was I? Oh, that's right. Barcelona! [smiles]"
Congrats on your 2nd page of books, btw! :P
