They can give you such different impressions of what the story will be like!<br /><br />Jenny - There's nothing quite like getting lost in a great book. Those are the ones that really stay with you. <br /><br />Becky - I haven't heard anything about the rest of the series.

Part of me wants to see if the rest of the series is any good! <br /><br />There are a couple of good adaptations of this one!!! And I'd actually recommend watching them all.
