How many books are planned for the series? This is one I have on my to-read list, but don't want to start until it is complete! |

Well, I am one of her biggest fans so I can only answer with a resounding YES. I could be biased, though. I don't think she's ever written a bad back, or even a mediocre book. |

I've got Dust and Light! I'm so excited! After I finish, I am going to have to go back and re-read the Lighhouse series so I remember it. This will be a set of two duologies set in the same world, ... |

I might have to get the Hale book! I liked some of her earlier YA work, but some of it was not that great.
I just finished reading Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell. Not fantasy, but reminded me of fanta ... |

I think we are up for it, esp if it is East Coast. Our summer plans this year have been completely torpedoed with Mike's torn Achilles tendon, so I'm not sure if Mike is going to want to plan a trip ... |

Hello Freaks,

Hey hey Freaky-freaks,

I liked the potential of what this book could be, and some of the scenes were wonderful. The atmosphere is just how I like my fairy tales. But, obviously, the pacing had a lot of problems. I didn't ... |
