Anther movie that should have had a different title because it was almost nothing like the book was The Seeker. I saw the movie first (it was good as a movie) then I read the book and I couldn't believe they were supposed to be the same thing.


oh joy, Tamora Pierce= one of the best authors ever! Completely agree with that.

I just reread Ender's Game. What an excellent book. I read it like 9 years ago and forgot EVERYTHING except the war simulator.

And did you know Eoin Colfer came out with yet another Artemis Fowl book? I read it, it was alright, but not great. Good think I got it from the library instead of buying it.
