I really appreciate and enjoy an author who writes a story that's clever and different because so many books have similar stories or start from a similar place and branch off. This book sounds very unique and intriguing. I also love that you get a little something extra reading the paper copy!<br /><br />Thank you for another amazing review, Sandy!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09866342436745173619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4124681312732868654.post-4172408710019284042011-11-16T10:12:33.274-05:002011-11-16T10:12:33.274-05:00Well doesn't that sound cool?!

I had not really wanted to read this book, but after taking an extended look at it at Target the other day, and now hearing what you have to say about it, I think I DO need to read this one.
