I loved to read when I was younger and now that I am in college I am slowly easing my way back into the world of books. I am discovering both good and bad books, but it is a wonderful journey. I am glad to be in a completely different realm. When I find a new gem it always pleases me. Reading is something I hope remains a big part in my life.... more »

    Actually, I really haven't read any manga......ever. I'm trying to get into it though. Thanks for the recommendations, I'll be sure to check them out.

    I loved Sabriel, Lirael, and Abhorsen but I didn't care for the Mister Monday, etc. series. Which Patricia McKillip do you recommend starting with? I am craving a book like The Hero and The Crown, The Blue Sword or Deerskin--
    Thanks!

    I read your note about Deerskin, by Robin McKinley and share your opinion of the book. I loved it too, and thought it was so much more than about the literal aspects of incest and rape, but about self-acceptance, survival, growing up and love (so much more than that too). I am hoping that you can make a recommendation of another novel along those lyrical storytelling lines.

    Thanks,
    Beth
