The Sandman Companion by Hy Bender. A very interesting read for anyone who is a fan of the series.

The Walking by Bentley Little. Although I do enjoy Little's work, this novel brought to light some problems I have with it. He is a brilliant stylist, and his narrative flows very well, but he seems to have a problem with ending his books. The finale seemed a little flat and sort of unrealistically happy, as is typical of his work. The setup is probably the best of any Little book I've read though, so we can say this one was more about the journey than the destination.

In the middle of The Da Vinci Code right now. Before I started reading it, I assumed it was just a summery of facts, myths, ect. But it's a fictional story, and a very interesting one at that. So far, a great book :)

The Code!!-This is my most borrowed book....no.2 is Beauty by Sheri S. Tepper (AND it hasn't been returned yet,now that I think of it!)
I think you would like Beauty,Marroe.It's a spin on the Sleeping Beauty Tale.


Last book I read,I wish I hadn't:The Last Victim by Jason Moss

I should check it out, I like things like that...I'll be starting on "Wicked" soon, which of course isn't a spinoff, but kind of the same deal I think. Thanks for the suggestion.
