Wow, it feels like I haven't posted in FOREVER! Okay, maybe it hasn't been THAT long but still! I think it's about time highlight some new book (or rather OLD book)
We've ALL heard of Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine. May I just say that this book is, if not EXTREMELY close, to being #1 on my favorite book list.
I just loved the development of the characters, the setup of the story, Ella herself, and let's not forget about Char.
Seriously, I think the development of all the characters is exquisite, almost like you're growing up along with them. The setup of the whole story was expertly done and Ella is possibly one of my all time favorite characters. And than there's Prince Char...
I believe every man should try to be like him. The first word that comes to mind when I think of him is simply gentleman. In all the fairy tales, Prince Charming is made out to be almost unimportant or just another part of the story. But not in this...
This is a fun, adventurous, absolutely fantastic book that I suggest everyone read. It's, well, just my kind of writing I guess ;)

I just finished reading your blog archives and I've really enjoyed reading it. You have found a perfect balance of how long posts should be. When you started all the posts were very short but you have found a great length which means its not a big deal to write a post but it still has great content.
ReplyDeleteHaha, yeah after a while you just forget about trying to keep it short. There are just so many great writers out there and their books all deserve more than just one or two sentences.
