My husband did the same thing... it didn't hold his interest, which is odd as he generally strives to finish whatever books he starts. <br /><br />Talking of 'unexpected' I put two more on my list. You'll be interested in one of them, it's St. Lucy's Home for Bad Bloggers...I mean er... Girls Raised by Wolves. Of course, now I have 13 on my list so will have to find one more...<br /><br />I don't know if you sent an e.mail, Susan? If you did I didn't receive it. Let me know and I'll give you another e.mail address to use.<br /><br />Chrisbookarama: I know the Jasper Fforde series is beloved by many so it's high time I got to it. It's one of several I'm determined to read this year.Cathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06371069000185280668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958492963483272678.post-78825602567284060582011-03-23T11:52:09.538+00:002011-03-23T11:52:09.538+00:00I really enjoyed The Eyre Affair.

You have a wonderful list there, and as you say, there is always room for the unexpected.....<br /><br />I love this challenge too! yaay, it's finally here!<br /><br />PS I'm about to go into our email to answer yours :-)Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09095246748581382752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958492963483272678.post-47932835135550866142011-03-22T11:07:04.102+00:002011-03-22T11:07:04.102+00:00Stephanie: I need to check out the artist's we...Stephanie: I need to check out the artist's website properly, but yes, such beautiful work. Good luck to you too, will check out your post in a minute.<br /><br />Pat: I'm not sure if I'll like Labyrinth or not. I've read conflicting opinions, so we'll see. I really need to give it a try though as it was a Christmas gift from about four years ago. 8-S<br /><br />I haven't read anything by Fforde either but Peter and Wendy have both read the series and love it. So for me that's a pretty good guide that they're good. Peter being about the pickiest person I know with books... lol.<br /><br />Kailana: The Lies of Locke Lamora is about the only book on my pile that I don't feel any guilt over as I've only owned for two months. The rest... well we won't go there...<br /><br />Carl: I'm determined to actually read The Wood Wife this time. Both you and Chris have recced it and I fancy Pat has read it too (?) and liked it. That's recommendation enough for me.<br /><br />Thank you, I've already started my first book and already loving it, so I'm sure this is going to be yet another good OUaT challenge for me.<br /><br />Chris: I'll be sure to read The Wood Wife this time! Also need to properly check out Anne-Julie Aubry's website properly. What I've seen of her artwork looks stunning.<br /><br />Yvonne: Yes, I have a free afternoon this afternoon so, as well as doing another book review, I'll check out that website.<br /><br />LOL! yeah, I'm not great at reading from my tbr pile but, starting as I mean to go on (HO HO), my first book is one off that pile - Beauty by Robin McKinley, and I love it already.Cathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06371069000185280668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958492963483272678.post-81049074395928109582011-03-22T06:50:11.387+00:002011-03-22T06:50:11.387+00:00Hi Cath,
