Maybe it depends on the mood I'm in - I think my 2 year old was a one month old when I tried Inkspell and I was rather sleep deprived anyway :) I really like your blog. I think I may stop by again :)Corinnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15741365928762676938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32315311.post-84168175774368228622008-04-03T23:39:00.000-07:002008-04-03T23:39:00.000-07:00I skipped over most of the review simply because i...I skipped over most of the review simply because it looks like you wrote a great one and this is a book I plan to read.

Gore doesn't bother me and I like stories that use the older fairy tales rather than the Disney versions (but of course I do love Disney!).

I usually think of myself as somewhat of a lightweight when it comes to horror, but I didn't feel that way about this book. For me, I think it's because I went into it knowing that it was a 'fairy tale' and not based in this world. I have a much harder time with fiction that deals with crimes like child abduction because it hits too close to home.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00795619401977840939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32315311.post-10825602017505310402008-04-02T05:46:00.000-07:002008-04-02T05:46:00.000-07:00Your review is excellent.

I'm only able to read a few stories at a time because they're so disturbing. He is quite an original author. I love his quote about reading too, and agree wholeheartedly.Cathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06371069000185280668noreply@blogger.com
