Gosh, you NEVER do what I want! ;)

I liked the idea of reading both...

I also like the idea of both books. It gives a choice.

GO GRAVEYARD!

A number of people, like myself, have changed our votes from our originals to one of the front runners.

The problem seems that we are also split down the middle.

But this is cool.

I say do it Fiona...end it now and we have two books to read this month...Also this could help with the YA challenge. Just my 2 cents.

I'll add mine too. Now you have FOUR cents.

This is great. Now I can read The Graveyard Book for 30.1, and Anne for 30.2. :D

Becky, that's what I'm doing as well! :)

Fiona, GR died on me too. I think it was down for everyone... :S

Perfect!

Two fantastic books! Thanks for voting, everyone!

Now I just hope you like Graveyard...

But I know you will!

Yes... I'm sure that I will. :)

How old are your kids, Heather? They might like it too.

Eight might be a little young. I was thinking 10 or 11 would be okay. Does anyone else have any thoughts? I don't have kids, and I think I tend to err on the side of caution.

I was just told that I HAVE to read that by my much-younger cousins. They have good taste, and I know you do too, so I'll have to pick it up soon. I'm going to the beach on vacation in a couple of weeks, and I've been toying with the idea of using that time to catch up on some of these children's/YA books I keep meaning to read. Maybe I'll get to it if I decide to do that.

I just picked up Graveyard yesterday, and there are some great illustrations in there - wasn't really expecting them!

Wow, could it be that everyone is READING their YA book somewhere?

Kinda quiet in here.....

*echoes*

Laura, I have been out at our local theme park with my husband and sons. DD was away with another family she sees once a month.

You ARE allowed to have a life outside GR, Titch! Been reading too, I'm sure, if I know you!

:)

I found a computer desktop from his publisher(?) with one of the illustrations. Here's the link if you're interested. There are a few other desktops from fantasy authors on there.
