I've only been reading on breaks at work so it's been taking me a while since that's only about 15 minutes 3-4 times a week. Hopefully now that all the wedding stuff is starting to die down I'll be able to read more again, but I almost doubt it since I'm getting ready to embark on two scrapbooking adventures.

Anyway, I loved this book. I loved the theme, the imagery, the characters, the conflict... It was a good classic adventure. Don't expect it to be just like the most recent movie they made on it though. It has a lot in commom, but the movie leaves out a lot and gets a little overly dramatic with some scenes and miss the concepts from the book completely. I really recommend this one.
