I too commented on the "narrator voice"; couldn't get it out of my head. I'm a bit skeptical of this as a YA book too. I'm not sure as many teens would enjoy it as would adults. Great review Kristen!Terri B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12215878121282668358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-754919688510890076.post-19820774974594485182010-09-18T11:47:43.618-07:002010-09-18T11:47:43.618-07:00Overflowing - These covers are just amazing (and w...Overflowing - These covers are just amazing (and what's inside isn't too shabby either)!<br /><br />Erin - I want to listen to the audio version too but I'm not very good with paying attention.

It's just as good but totally different. :)<br /><br />Sleepless - Yes, it's the same sort of humor as Good Omens too. And I definitely love these covers!<br /><br />Diane - I am so totally in love with this challenge. I have two more books waiting to be reviewed!<br /><br />Jenners - Completely different tone and everything. I'm kind of in awe of Connolly right now!<br /><br />Kailana - I hope you do get it again!
