I've been putting some comments on the long list - 7 tonight and more where that came from. Not done this sooner as I've been too busy reading all these books! I wonder if anyone else has read as many as I have? Think I'm up to about 15 so far. I ha…
Graceling is very graceful - it entices you along and before you know it you've finished. It is excellent for a debut and I agree wholeheartedly with Jayden's commentsi - it is easy to get involved with the characters. If you are reluctant to read t…
