My new place is nice, but it's 2 hours away from my family so it's a big change. I'll get used to it though :)

kittyh21 on Jul 18, 2012:

I moved in June so all my books are back home, I only have my kindle with me, and as I have no money I am going through the free classics on kindle :) There are so many books I want to read! I haven't jumped on the '50 shades' bandwagon yet. the only people that seem to be reading it (and enjoying it) are people who don't usually read...so I'm going to wait until a person who regularly reads recommends it to me! haha

kittyh21 on Jul 18, 2012:

School holidays start this week right? hope you all have fun :) I'm glad you enjoyed them all, I didn't realise the film was out in September, I can't wait now! What are reading at the moment? :) I'm about half way through The Picture of Dorian Grey. It's good so far but a little slow.

kittyh21 on Jul 18, 2012:

I hope you enjoyed the Hunger Games! Did you read the full triology or just the first book? what did you think? :) I am well thanks, I hope you are too.

kittyh21 on Jun 5, 2012:

That's awesome, I hope you do read the Hunger games and enjoy. Th film has nothing on the books! (as with most!!) I have just read my way through all the Sherlock Holmes books, novels and short story collections! How did you enjoy the double bank holiday being in London and all? I'm from a small town in the Northeast, but I;ve just moved in with my boyfriend to a flat in manchester! I hope your enjoying swapbot :)
