It was good, but nothing amazing for me. I had heard of it before, too.<br /><br />And, I still can't believe how different your edition of the book is to the one I am reading considering all the missing stories!Kailanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11136262232046813471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18884029.post-71364020990595216232011-10-24T09:20:11.243+11:002011-10-24T09:20:11.243+11:00I stayed up the whole 24 hours for Dewey's Rea...I stayed up the whole 24 hours for Dewey's Readathon, dozing in my reading-recliner about an hour and a half toward the end (around 4:00 a.m. my time). That means I slept right through the automatic posting on my blog this morning and the reason I'm here now. I'm here to tell you ... TA-DA!<br /><br />I have awarded you the Versatile Blogger Award.

Al...Seriously, that last line! I love it so much.<br /><br />Also, hooray for <em>Stardust</em>! I watched that movie before reading the book and I was surprised at what completely different creatures they are, but I do so enjoy them both.Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14470999393375072607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18884029.post-48225913671583876592011-10-24T02:40:21.811+11:002011-10-24T02:40:21.811+11:00Sorry you missed In the End.

Your description makes it sound great.Emily Bartonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13971084813206845680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18884029.post-4883646943783670442011-10-23T21:14:06.471+11:002011-10-23T21:14:06.471+11:00I've been meaning to watch Stardust again, it&...I've been meaning to watch Stardust again, it's such a lovely film - though I like the book even better.<br /><br />I don't think you missed much not being able to read In the End - it was very short and not Gaiman at his best, I think. I've followed your link to the story you listened to and am dying to hear it as you liked it so much.<br /><br />Pages was definitely better than Strange Little Girls - I ended up quite liking it, and the other two were great.Jodie Robsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02442935205880334932noreply@blogger.com
