I’ve never really know where to start with her (but I’ve read Howl’s Moving Castle) I think I might have to look out for Fire and Hemlock and few others, thanks for this!!

Wow, she must really love glass. That makes three books (maybe more as it’s perfectly possible I’ve forgotten one) with pretty glass in.

I hope you can! She’s wonderful! Let me warn you that I’ve posted the prettiest versions of all of these covers. Some of the covers of her books are, to say the least, less beautiful.

I want to see it! I hope when you review it you will post a picture. I love terrible covers as long as they are not covering books I own. :p

Actually, my reading list and calendar did not, um, work. They made me count wrong. (Really! They did! It wasn’t even slightly my fault). I messed up my count, and then I decided I was going to read my next planned book anyways so that I could post on the Tuesday of DWJ Week. Then an audiobook distracted me, and I decided to finish it, and now I’ll be posting on a Wednesday. Provided I can actually start and finish A TALE OF TIME CITY before I start and finish anything else–and let’s face it, my track record kind of sucks so far.

(Random: the library copy has perhaps the worst cover in the history of covers. It is terrible. Absolutely terrible. I don’t understand how anyone, anywhere was ever moved to read this book, if this was the original cover).
