While I, on the other hand, couldn't choke my way through the second book.

Recently I read two and a half books of Mercedes Lackey's "500 Kingdoms" books, twists off of old fairy tales. The twist? The progatonistas are all quirky, headstrong and always right! Ho ho! Also they were romance novels! I was TRICKED!

I just finished reading a book called Polgara the Sorceress. It is...OK, I guess. Nothing brilliant. I like the philosophy behind the fiction, though.

*I don't know how that book got into my hands. Aparantly it's 12th in a series.*

Lol oh really? Maybe I'll give it a shot By the way, has anyone read 'Politically Correct Bedtime Stories'? It's a spoof on all the fairytales like Cinderella and Snow White. I think it's hilarious (and so true!).
