I loved The Two Princesses of Bamarre and hope they dont't change it at all. I will let you know if I learn anything more. Gail Carson Levine just wrote a new book, A Tale of Two Castles. I haven't read it yet, but it looks very good. (I think it has a dragon in it...)Elfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14384723142267852828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-18016683582959853802011-05-18T09:16:50.843-04:002011-05-18T09:16:50.843-04:00I had heard rumor about the the Two Princesses mov...I had heard rumor about the the Two Princesses movie but haven't found much info. on it yet. Let me know if you see something, because it would be a great movie! I didn't like how much they changed Ella Enchanted, though, so I'm a little worried . . .<br /><br />I haven't read the Hunger Games, but I have heard SO many good things about them. My younger brother read them and liked them, but I don't remember if he actually REALLY liked them or not. I'll have to ask him again.<br /><br />I definitely recommend "Beauty" by Robin McKinley. Such a beautiful, fun, and interesting fairy tale novel!Anne Elisabeth Stenglhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09462605949792523331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-87913444734338680502011-05-17T17:05:13.463-04:002011-05-17T17:05:13.463-04:00I have read The Hero and the crown, but that is al...I have read The Hero and the crown, but that is all. I have heard that they are going to make a movie out of The Two Princesses of Bamarre. Do you know anything about that? Also, have you read the Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins or know anything about them?Elfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14384723142267852828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-20386141707368313782011-05-15T16:48:40.744-04:002011-05-15T16:48:40.744-04:00I like a lot of Robin McKinley's books, but no...I like a lot of Robin McKinley's books, but not all of them. I REALLY love her first novel, "Beauty" which is a Beauty and the Beast retelling. Her other Beauty and the Beast story, "Rose Daughter" is also wonderful, though very different. "Spindle's End" was interesting, but a little odd, same with "Chalice." As for "Pegasus," it looks really interesting, but from what I hear, it ends on a cliff-hanger, so I'm going to wait until the sequel is out to buy it!<br /><br />Have you read any Robin McKinley?Anne Elisabeth Stenglhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09462605949792523331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-38024876719549520162011-05-15T15:00:55.689-04:002011-05-15T15:00:55.689-04:00You have read Robin McKinley's The Hero and th...You have read Robin McKinley's The Hero and the Crown, but what do you think of her other books?

This list looks like another great one to tap for reading ideas. :-)Faith Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17283912862858368153noreply@blogger.com
