She does fairytale retellings, and I love my fairytales like I love my gummy bears.<br /><br />If you're looking for something abstract, I'm reading UnLunDun by China Mieville (I know; finally getting around to it), and it's very good. Kind of like a steampunk Narnia with a dash of Neil Gaiman.XiXihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05364953168828471897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1209535647948718521.post-10394742589888871882009-07-28T14:09:15.904-04:002009-07-28T14:09:15.904-04:00I've heard some great things about the Lightni...I've heard some great things about the Lightning Thief, and I believe that's a trilogy? <br /><br />I also saw some previews for the movie they are composing on those books, so I think I may pick them up myself to see how well they capture it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1209535647948718521.post-17871649421379548882009-07-28T11:34:52.656-04:002009-07-28T11:34:52.656-04:00I'm reading Libyrinth right now--it's unus...I'm reading Libyrinth right now--it's unusual.<br /><br />One of my favs, though, is The Hero and the Crown by McKinleyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11431700962951592287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1209535647948718521.post-42378445537227477382009-07-28T11:11:40.445-04:002009-07-28T11:11:40.445-04:00Well I recommend "Shiver" for sure!!
