About meMy name is Mindy and I am the youngest of six children. I am a junior in high school and I love to read whenever I can. I also love to hang out with friends/family and play on the computer.

I'm offended! You were at Purdue and didn't come say hi??
It all sounds lovely. Come whenever you wish! :)
I liked The Ruby Key. Not a new favorite or anything, but a good read.

Bummer about the book sale. :( Are you and Megan coming this weekend?
Fine:)

lol -- you left me a message at about the exact same time I sent Bib a message. I thought I had accidentally posted the message to myself instead of to Bib.

Good that there are several chargers in the house! Handy, that!
So I have your book and your phone charger. I should be there Tuesday for the NY trip. I'll bring it with me then, unless Mike comes in which case I'll send it with him. :)
Yup, yup! Come on over! I'll be here all day Wednesday and then I'm coming to you guys on Thursday at some point. So come whenever! Miles and I get up around 6.
I meant to call you! Do you know your schedule so you can come meet the pup?
Hey goober, did you even notice your birthday thread in HE? :P~~
ok i sure will. If u want a really funny book to read its called bored of the rings. its fun as heck and i think u will love it. i know i sure did. its written by National Lampoon.
I really like your selection of books. I absolutely love Harry Potter. But im also a big fan of Lord of the Rings. if u want a some suggestions on some good books to read let me know.
Hiya,

Sorry for not being here in ages..;)

Wow! Cool! No, I'm on a beginners level-about level 3. I've been skating since october 2008.

I got a new book! The secret garden. Well, got it ages ago but just began to read it. Its good so far!! :)

Not much today-just school. Got ice skating Thursday. Do you ice skate? :)

Jen

Oh cool!

I see your reading Matilda...that book is great!

So what you been up to lately?

Jen

Hiya,

I'm ok. You looks really pretty in that pic!

Got out a new book from the Library today-The diamond of Drury lane bu Julia Golding-Have you read it?

Jen
x
Hiya,

How are you??:)

And is that you in your librarything pic?

I live in the UK. And We have snow at the moment!

Yeah, it is good. I'm on page 36 or 37, I think...You must give it a read.

Jen

Ah cool. Do you live in the UK or USA?

And what book are you reading at the moment? I'm reading the diary of Anne Frank.

Jen

The star of Kazan by Eva Ibbotson most definitely. Have you read it? If not, I do recommend it!

Jen
xp.s: How old are you, I'm 14 :)
HP3 by far!! Its such a good story.

Whats your overall fave book?

Jen

Hiya,

Thank you for accepting my invite! I see you like Harry Potter-which is your fave in the series??

Jen

Haha, I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought "Silence" was really really bad =P
You know, Paperbackswap.com has a TBR list feature. You can search for books like normal and then under "more" there's one that says "TBR." It goes into a list like your wish list, but separate, so you can keep them straight. I use that as my permanent (and ongoing) TBR list. Then, when you've read a book, you can switch it from the TBR list to the BIR (Books I've Read) list! It's great!
I can bring them both! See you tomorrow!
Thank you soo soo soo much for my blanket. As soon as I opened it my Husband took it from me and wrapped himself up in it and said "OH WOW this is a WINNER!" he is hard to please when it comes to blankets. Then he got up to give it too me and the our puppy sat on it and snuggled in it. So she likes it too. Although she's easier to please. Now I finally got it for myself and am snuggled up tight in it. IT IS WONDERFUL!! Did you really make it yourself? how long did that take? It absolutely perfect. Thank you a million times over.

I did get Inkdeath! :D I haven't gotten very far yet, so I don't have anything about how good it is yet.

And I did get another ER book! It's called Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World. I'm glad you got one too!
Thanks for letting me know! I'm not sure yet whether I'll be able to come that weekend.
Hooray! I didn't think it sounded like something I would like much, so I didn't request that one. I hope you like it!
I did! I must be the luckiest ERer ever! I got Guilty by Reason of Stupidity. It's a bunch of the dumbest/funniest court cases. Like the woman who said there was a finger in her Wendy's chili. And the woman who sued McDonald's for serving too-hot coffee when she burned herself on it. I'm about halfway done and it's pretty funny so far.
Hey, I noticed that Melissa and I are on the top of your list of people who have the same books as you--we all have such great taste! ;)
Might have been the Twilight books. I think there was a preview for the movie that's coming out in December over the first book. They are more romance-type than I usually like, but there's quite a bit of action in there too, so they're enjoyable.
Glad you decided to join! Browse around some groups -- there are loads of fun ones. :)
