I'm really hoping to get to it this time.<BR/><BR/>Nymeth: Delighted that you're reading Here, there be Dragons too. Can't wait to see what you think - I'm expecting to really enjoy it.<BR/><BR/>And yes... time to read Truckers methinks. Had to have some Pratchett in there somewhere. :-)<BR/><BR/>Kerry: I think I'm going to read Larklight first. Partly because it's a library book and will need to go back, but also it should be a fun start to my challenge before I get on to the more serious stuff. I've heard so much about The Black Jewels series that I sent for the book especially for this challenge. Happy Reading!<BR/><BR/>Jeane: yes, I think I'm going to like The Stolen Child too.<BR/><BR/>Maree: good luck with your list. It's not easy choosing but I've been thinking about this for weeks. lol.<BR/><BR/>Deslily: I know you were a bit 'so so' about The Stolen Child so we'll see what I think. The Wood Wife sounds very intriguing.Cathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06371069000185280668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958492963483272678.post-53696693306641503992009-03-21T14:24:00.000+00:002009-03-21T14:24:00.000+00:00Carl: Thanks, I think that's one of the best book ...Carl: Thanks, I think that's one of the best book quotes ever to be honest. <BR/><BR/>Nice to be aboard and thank you for hosting this challenge once more.<BR/><BR/>Susan: I've been torn about the Liveship Traders series for a while. It sits between the Farseer and Tawny Man, as you know, but some people say it isn't necessary to read it, others that it adds a certain something to your enjoyment of the Tawny Man series. So, I'm going to read it first. No way can they be bad books if Robin Hobb has written them so I've nothing to lose as far as I can see.<BR/><BR/>Good to hear that the Gregory Frost is good, the review I saw made it sound so.<BR/><BR/>And thank you for your tip off about the Susan Cooper books. I'll definitely bear that in mind while reading. I like to know these things.<BR/><BR/>Oh yes, this is going to be immense fun. :-)<BR/><BR/>Robin: I'm even more excited about it this year, than last, for some weird reason.<BR/><BR/>Susan: Yes, The Wood Wife. So many people were reading it last year that I felt I was missing out. Then, later in the year, I found a copy in a charity shop... couldn't believe my luck. So now I can read it too! :-)<BR/><BR/>Stephanie: The Stolen Child is one book I really want to get to as I've been reading about it all over the place. Happy reading to you too!<BR/><BR/>Kailana: Thanks! I think there's not much doubt that I'll enjoy the books. :-)<BR/><BR/>R of MTB: I'm fairly new to Charles De Lint, just read two, The Little Country and Dreams Underfoot, both of which I loved. People say how good the 'Jack' books are, but I'm also keen to read much more in the Newford series, so this a really good nudge for me to do that.Cathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06371069000185280668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958492963483272678.post-35653593148941882972009-03-21T09:56:00.000+00:002009-03-21T09:56:00.000+00:00forgot to mention that I read the Stolen Child and...forgot to mention that I read the Stolen Child and the Woodwife too.

I really do recommend it for a fun, light read.<BR/><BR/>Over Sea, Under Stone is the start to a great series and I can't recommend Daughter of the Blood enough.

Same for the Gregory Frost, I'm waiting to read book 2 - I really enjoyed book 1 - ooh, good list, Cath! and it's fun we share some books too! I love all the Charles de Lint on your list too, and just remember that Over Sea,Under Stone has been the least favourite of that series book, from everyone I've heard from since I read it last year. Dark is rising is much, much better. But you have to read Os,US to get to the others....This is so much fun, isn't it?Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09095246748581382752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958492963483272678.post-68386258168682612452009-03-20T15:42:00.000+00:002009-03-20T15:42:00.000+00:00I love your Emily Dickinson quote at the top of yo...I love your Emily Dickinson quote at the top of your blog.
