I was very excited for it, but then just never got around to it...<br /><br />*Chachic: What I have read by them so far has all been wonderful, so I am looking forward to more. :)<br /><br />*Sharry: I read the Study trilogy back when it came out... Back then I actually FINISHED series... Now I read too many and get lost in them sometimes...<br /><br />*Debi: I know. I need to get around to Monsters of Men and see what I think one of these days!<br /><br />*samantha: Thanks!<br /><br />*Jenny: Normally I refrain, but I got inspired... Mainly because I had to rearrange things in order to find some of these books in the first place!<br /><br />*Darren: Sounds good!<br /><br />*April: Thanks!<br /><br />*Rebecca: When it came out it had really horrid covers. They rereleased it, though, and now it matches.Kailanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11136262232046813471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19926025.post-21153983461771625432011-03-30T00:10:39.893-03:002011-03-30T00:10:39.893-03:00*Memory: lol I am glad that my reading pool makes ...*Memory: lol I am glad that my reading pool makes you so happy!

I am terrible for not following lists, but I enjoy making them...<br /><br />*Susan: Not the only one by far, I would think. :) I really need to get back in touch with Hobb. I own all of her books, but have read so few!<br /><br />*libritouches: As long as they are from my TBR and not from the library. :)<br /><br />*Pat: ha ha, thanks!<br /><br />*Cath: The Fool trilogy is all sorts of awesome. I loved her from the very first book!<br /><br />*jess: Maybe it is that... It sounds better that way. :) I hope you find lots of great selections from my pool, though!<br /><br />*Staci: I know.

But I do have some of those on my potential reads list, too. Like River Secrets--I can't believe I haven't gotten around to reading that yet either. And I'm just like you--I adored The Goose Girl, but didn't love Enna Burning quite as much (still loved it, just not as much).Debihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13999759633682551104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19926025.post-61885561343346045832011-03-25T03:32:01.883-03:002011-03-25T03:32:01.883-03:00I want to start on the Patrick Ness books (I have ...I want to start on the Patrick Ness books (I have <i>The Knife of Never Letting Go</i> sitting somewhere at home ... interesting that you say the first one was good but no so much the others...) Also, I agree with you on the Shannon Hale Books. I really still LOVE Shannon Hale, though. But, yeah, <i>Forest Born</i> and <i>Enna Burning</i> weren't as good as <i>Goose Girl</i>. My favourite is <i>Book of a Thousand Days </i> and I haven't yet read <i>River Secrets</i> but will likely do so. As for Maria Snyder - you know, I really loved <i>Poison Study</i> and was really eager to read more, but somewhere along the line I just kind of got less enthusiastic about it (sad,how that happens). Got to start reading those soon, too.<br /><br />--SharryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19926025.post-42424851335561009562011-03-24T22:49:46.408-03:002011-03-24T22:49:46.408-03:00So many great books in your list!

Anything by Sarah Addison Allen, Robin McKinley, Shannon Hale, Diana Wynne Jones or Sherwood Smith is a good thing because they're my favorite authors. I was trying to decide if the Chaos Walking trilogy can be included in this challenge because I have copies of those books but I haven't gotten around to them yet.<br /><br />I hope you enjoy reading your picks, looks like you have a lot lined up. It's going to be a fun challenge. :)Chachichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10216391673830772231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19926025.post-43131952032195552092011-03-24T20:24:23.359-03:002011-03-24T20:24:23.359-03:00What a wonderful list…and I’m tickled pink to see ...What a wonderful list…and I’m tickled pink to see that one of mine is included in it!

I also fail to review often, but my problem is more avoidance than forgetting:)It sounds like you are just excited for the next book and forget to post a review. What a great quality way to be. <br /><br />Although you may not read from the pool you have done a service to the commons. What a wonderful list of books. I think I will be coming back here often to get inspiration for reads.

It makes me feel better that I am so bad at reviewing books I really like,too, that I am not the only one! lol <br /><br />i loved all the Fool series by HObb, by the way, and cried at the ending. Fabulous fantasy books, both the Assassin series and fool Series. i almost want to start reading them again, they were so good.
