    You are so kind. I always wonder if anyone is ever reading those reviews! It's good to know someone actually is. Thank you for your kind words.

    you named my tope 2 fave arthur authors. i've read a couple of mz bradley's other books. they were ok, but i agree, not as appealing. and amy brown? cool huh. haven't been on in a few days, but had a birthday in there and, yea family, got some great new books. what could be better than a book for a present, eh?

    I like your book choices. I, too, like M. Atwood. Did you like her last novel?

    hey there. i've read patricia mckilip, but not the one you mentioned. i have a friend who is way into terry pratchett, but i always shy away. i have no idea why. maybe it's time to get over myself and give it a whirl. i've got to say, mists and crystal cave are tied for my favorite arthur novelizations.

    hey there. i loved browsing your shelf. lots of stuff i'm going to have to check out. and definitely give moby a whirl. go ahead and skip the stuff about who to cut up a whale and what to do with it's blubber. it's least read 50 pages in classic literature, i'm sure. dragons? usually i'ts dragons and swords i shy away from. not because there's anything intrinsically bad, but it seems that often it's an excersise in "i'm writing 'fantasy'. see, i have a dragon. and a sword'. i have found many good dragon books (jane yolen, mercedes lackey), but i need to have great characters, or a really cool world where there is a twist on how things work. i could have cited the same problems with vampire books though. some are great and some are just show of writing about them. there are quite a few books of yours i may bug you to know about, but tell me about your favorite arthur stuff (i can see you're a fan of t h white - anything else?)

    Well believe it or not I want to read Last of the Mohicans. I would have picked it to read for 19th cent but I am trying to get my books to fit another challenge I am in and it didn't fit. Plus I need more time to read some of those classic books because they usually do take more time to read. As it is I am suffering through Pere Goriot by Honore de Balzac...why why why did I pick this one I do not know! snoozerama! ;)

    Oh dear. This isn't the first time someone's dropped me a note somewhat like that: I'm afraid I really am campaigning viciously against Bach and Hosseini, and I'm not really sure they deserve that much ripping-apart!

    Thanks for dropping me a note. I sometimes wonder if anyone reads my reviews. It's nice to know they are helpful.
