Have anyone of you read this book? Its called The Hannibal Trilogy. I just bought it. But I haven't read it yet.  Or are there any other books you guys have read that's interesting? I'm bored at home. |

I can't say I've ever read it. Let me know if it's any good.
Have any of you read Inkheart by Cornelia Funke? It's probably my favorite book. It's amazing. And I'm reading Sign of the Crescent by Debbie Federici now and it's very interesting...

Ooh I love Inkheart. The Theif Lord is also by her. And its good too. Its a trilogy right?? The second book is called Inkspell. Maybe I'll buy it later.

Yeah...the Inkheart/Inkspell books are going to be a trilogy. She also wrote Dragon Rider. I love all her books...Inkspell is a little slow to begin...but it ends up being really good.
And if you like really sweet fantasy books, the book I'm presently reading (ie The Sign of the Cresent) is up there. I'm only a third of the way through and I've "aww'ed" at least twenty times.

It's amazing. I finished it that night. It's a sweet novel with a few twists and turns. It's good and a fast read. I recommend it.

Oh. You're quite welcome. I bought it because I was like, "Eh...it's short-ish and I need something to read..." But I was very pleasantly surprised.

Well.... theres this old fashioned girl, and then kind of a high class guy(tom). It's starts when they are young, 14 actually, when the old fashioned girl (polly) came to visits tom's sister.
About half way through the book it's I think 10 years later, I can't explain it and do it justices, you must read it no joke, it's amazing. It's my favorite book.
