Odd, vile characters and happenings yet you can't stop reading! <br /><br />This one is on my list!Ilianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07026669671843769219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4124681312732868654.post-56526245063177458292010-10-22T13:42:27.013-04:002010-10-22T13:42:27.013-04:00I didn't read this one but my dad did.

I wonder if the paper book would be as good as the audio which sounds like it really brought the characters to light.

My imagination tends to take over when I'm reading words to myself. And the dark stuff here would probably not effect me by listening or watching - it is when I am left in my head to my own devices that I get into trouble.The Bumbleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08334162339045336577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4124681312732868654.post-72829514492938785912010-10-22T11:06:01.603-04:002010-10-22T11:06:01.603-04:00I picked this up but have not read it yet.
