    Looking for a book. Help!

    Okay, this is a book that I picked up at a flea market to relieve boredom when I was around ten. I believe the title was "Seven Stars to Sunday". I can't remember the characters' names but it was about two foster kids who kept getting presents in their mailbox until their final present was a...

    What other hobbies do you enjoy?

    Lies & Townbear-- Have either of you played a new game called Cranium? It looks interesting to me but I haven't shelled out the thirty dollars yet.

    Difficult books.

    I'm still trying to puzzle out the Silmarillion. It's been beside the bed for about a year now, and I still can't bring my self to start it again. I got about halfway through last time but just forgot about it.

    Patricia Cornwell: Portrait Of A Killer

    I read a bit of it and it sounds as though her logic is solid. There was also a t.v. special on a couple of months ago which advanced this same theory, but I don't remember if Cornwell was associated with the show.

    Spiderman (2002)

    I also thought the film was really good, considering what I was expecting when I went in to see it. Maybe I just remember it as a good movie as compared to Star Bores, which I also saw that weekend.

    You mean like the one in your Clancy post? Sorry, I don't mean this to be mean, but you've got to see the irony.

    Disagree with ending?

    Don't know if anyone else has read it yet, but I was very annoyed with the end of Lamb by Christopher Moore. It just didn't complete the story in my opinion.

    What other hobbies do you enjoy?

    Marie-- I love Monk. I watched it a lot the beginning of the summer, but fell off in the end and am just now catching up on the episodes I missed. I think it's hilarious. I was also a Trading Spaces addict for a while but am rarely home to see the new ones anymore. They did have some of...

    Abarat--Clive Barker

    Dawn-- Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. Sure, I would do a review for it. It wasn't a great book, but was an interesting beginning, because it obviously has a sequel. Anyway, if you set up the page, I'll try to put a review on it sometime this week.--jessica

    Favorite Young adult authors

    Yeah, Little Men is pretty good. Not as good as Little Women, buit not bad either. I only read it once, whereas I've reread Little Women a lot.

    To start things off: Favorite books

    Dafydd-- If you are Welsh you should read the books. Lloyd Alexander based them on Welsh mythology and the terrain of Wales. I read the books as a kid, but didn't realize the Welsh corrolation until I started doing academic Welsh research. By the way, do you speak Welsh? I have tried to...
