Read about 2 or 3 in the series and stopped though. Has a nice tone to it.<br /><br />And I liked "Big Fish." hard to imagine as a book though ... but maybe because it was such a visual film. <br /><br />And I'm so stymied whether I read "I Capture The Castle" or read a book that was very similarly titled. I'll have to find out!Jennershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08044537551139633301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-754919688510890076.post-69760799711553637572009-10-19T12:58:55.321-07:002009-10-19T12:58:55.321-07:00Eva - I have a pretty decent stack of review copie...Eva - I have a pretty decent stack of review copies again but I think they are all fairly easy reading so I should still have plenty of time for my own books. Especially since I need to read these ones sooner than later!<br /><br />Bloomsbury Bell - I'm sure this is one that I should have read years ago!<br /><br />Booklogged - It's hard to get rid of books but I'm trying to reduce clutter in all areas of my life and part of that is being honest about what books I will never pick up again. :) I have Mr. Sebastian on my library list, I think ... I better go check!<br /><br />Diane - I'm excited about The Magicians. I've put it in my "must read in November" stack.<br /><br />Danielle - I hope you do get to re-read it soon!<br /><br />Rose City - Fantastic!<br /><br />Elizabeth - With all of these endorsements, I'm definitely going to read this one soon.<br /><br />J.T. - Thanks! :)Kristen M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02335598194501733541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-754919688510890076.post-15927386982802170712009-10-18T20:21:32.052-07:002009-10-18T20:21:32.052-07:00congrats on winning the gift certificate!congrats on winning the gift certificate!J.T.

I need to take a lesson!<br /><br />I'm looking forward to reading DiCamilio latest. I loved Despereaux. I recently bought The Big Fish because I liked the movie, but also bought Ray In Reverse and Mr. Sebastian and the Negro Magician by Wallace. I'm with you on the need for more bookshelves!Bookloggedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00651016653247142255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-754919688510890076.post-56969427018042970472009-10-18T05:37:21.439-07:002009-10-18T05:37:21.439-07:00I love I capture the castle - it is one of my favo...I love I capture the castle - it is one of my favourite books.
