The Earthsea book reminds me that I still have Mrs Ditchfield's copy of The Weirdstone of Brisingamen from school. I hope she doesn't want it back. 😳

I had reason to revisit this thread today. One of the most talked about books we’ve had. It certainly split opinions.

Nearly finished TSLOAJF - it's been a very quick read!

I picked up The Storied Life… as I saw it on the shelves of my local bookshop. It’s a good job I didn’t read the blurb first or I would’ve put it straight back.

I finished AJ, posted on the review thread.

Now reading The Book of Love by Kelly Link, which is much, much better.

Having picked up the Storied Life from the library, I am reluctantly shelving Our Mutual Friend (which I am only half-way through) in order to read the month's book before the month ends.

Got something to say?
