Oooh!! Someone else reads the same stuff I read!! I have read about hald of these. Fablehaven is really a great series, isn't it? I think the kids would love it. Slaughterhouse Five was my favorite book for an age of Sundays. I read it when I was about 16 because it looked fascinating -- Hitchhiker is always awesome, Oliver Twist is just amazing, and I debated whether to get the Kitchen God's Wife last time I was at the bookstore. Come to my house and read my books, and we can trade some.

Ok, for some reason I never got this comment. I just stumbled upon it today while replying to someone else's post. Weird.

I'm not surprised to learn that we enjoy the same literature but it still makes me happy! So, are you going to share with me your top ten of 2008? Or your top ten of all time? I must know!

Someone recommended Slaughterhouse Five to me when I asked about books along the same vein as Time Traveler's Wife.

If you liked The Time Traveler's Wife, I think you'd really like Slaughterhouse Five. However, there isn't the same sense of deep romance that I enjoyed in Time Traveler's Wife. Still, I liked them both a lot! If you read it, let me know what you think :)
