It's... nice. I think there's a lot more you could do with it, though. You could expand, talk about Anna's past before she became an old lady and perhaps find her younger voice. It sounds more like a prologue, to me. As a thing on its own it is quite dull though. That's why I say is nice...

I'd like to start Crime and Punishment again... I started reading it when I was 15 but got utterlyconfused who was who with all the damn russian names!!! I got confused, there was I thinking that there was one extra strange character and I got quite confuzled over him only to find he wasn't...

I think the Jamie and Claire series is a very good set of books to gain knowledge from -not so much from history I think, as although it follows some key points in history it is not enough to learn anything you might already know anyway. I think you can learn a lot more about the social life and...

- Silly Wabbit Ditto. That is one of the reasons I like buying. However now that I'm a student I must be sensible and I mUST LOOK AT THE LIBRARY. I have a library book out now but it's overdue ad I keep forgetting to take it back which is a bit of a bum. That is my problem with libraries -...

Erm... maybe Endyth Blyton or Ronald Dahl. I tried to gt through The Boy in year four but foud it a bit hard going. But the first book that I remember that I LOVED was Dogsbody by Diana Wynne Jones when I was in nine, year four.

Hello! I'm alsoo very new and am rather tipsy at the moment so I'll try not to go on a spree of tipsynesss. If Billy Oblivion read this... sorry I am a student. Not my idea to go out but hey... now I am a wasted student and lost a few brain cells. Welcome to the forums... this is an...

No I think Dogsbody was a one off. I'd like to read some more books by her as I think she's a fantastic children's author. I'd reccomend you the Dalemark series as I was totally enthralled when I read them.

This is hard... I'll try and put these in order but I think I love these all equally. 1. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban 2. The Bronze Horseman - Paulina Tully 3. Drums of Autumn - Diana Gabaldon 4.Daugher of the Forest - Juliet Marriller 5. Memoirs of Geisha - Aurthur Golden

Maybe all her hints for Hermoine and Ron are just too obvious? Maybe Ron is just immatre about girls? Although I do hope they get together. I think Harry and Hermoine will always be great friends and probably very close, but as far as chemistry goes, I don't think there's anything. An Harry's...

Has any one read this author? I first picked opne of her books up when I was about 10 years old. I've read the following books by her: Dogsbody The Dalemark Quartet - Card and Cwidder, Drowned Ammet, Spellcoats The Crown of Dalemark I first picked up The Crown of Dalemark in...

Yes... I've been there. It is quite interesting but personally I prefer the books. There's a good 11 of them with a companion. Besides, they use the old Brayburn edition from Project Gutenburg and I want to read the more recent translation.

I didn't find them that hard to get through, but I haven't read the last one - The Fiery Cross yet. It's bigger then a brick, it is boulder sized. I read the first four within two months... probably just over a month, instead of doing my revision. :)

Has anyone heard of this guy? I'm reading his biography and I have read a short collection of his diary entries and I really want to get my hands on Mathews and Lanthem's complete translation at some point. They don't have the complete set in the library and they cost a bit to buy. Anyway...

It took me absolutely ages to read this book. For about a year I picked it up and put it down but finally I picked it up permently but it still took me three months to get through. Phew. I really enjoyed it although the bit with Ferdinand and whathisface... Albert did tire me somewhat in...
