    I'm getting the complete OZ collection this year. I LOVED the books when I was 10 or so & I want to read them to The Peanut.

    Neverwhere - Neil Gaiman

    Thoroughly imaginative and enjoyable. I love how Gaiman's taken what must be ordinary and everyday places for Londoners and, from such mundane familiarity, fashioned the strange world of London Below. When I finally make it too London someday, you'll see me looking in all the hidden and shadowy places around corners and such... trying to find a way into the Underside.

    Wizards First Rule.....Terry Goodkind.

    its....OK. I will keep reading the series but Im not in love with it as I was with Wheel of Time Series. I also read the book and didnt realize his picture was in the back of the book so I was reading and reading and reading and then it came to the back cover and BAM! Picture of author and it startled me.

    Firefly Beach, Luane Rice

    Im not sure why I read it. Its not the first time I read it, it will be years before I read it again.

    Lucy Sullivan's Getting Married, Marian Keyes.
