She played with the concept of the book gutter there as well.GatheringBookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04477710897574769648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2202949130902554989.post-5902569005193268362014-10-13T23:24:02.632-04:002014-10-13T23:24:02.632-04:00Charles and Emma had me wondering the same thing t...Charles and Emma had me wondering the same thing though I did enjoy it. ;) I loved Winger and am eagerly anticipating the sequel.

Overall, I found it to be a very peaceful read, but I hate to tell you that I don't remember the ending being much different. I liked the interdisciplinary aspect of it the most. I hope you enjoy the rest of the book!Ricki Ginsberg at Unleashing Readershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06086548238873957327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2202949130902554989.post-88638740805801706832014-10-13T16:48:06.952-04:002014-10-13T16:48:06.952-04:00I just saw A Perfectly Messed-Up Story on another ...I just saw A Perfectly Messed-Up Story on another blog so I requested it already.

I...I'm reading Winger right now--well, sort of. I started it, loved it, got distracted by a bunch of other things, and now it's been about 6 weeks since I've read even a page. SIGH. Got to get back to it before I forget what was happening. I really want to read the picture books you feature this week. I enjoy dark humor in a PB, but I've read several reviews of Flat Rabbit that make it sound like something just doesn't work about that book. I really enjoyed Charles & Emma--what a great book about marriage. And what a weird topic for a YA book! I'm not quite sure why it was marketed YA either. It's one I'd like to reread and think more about at some point, but I still have many Printz books to read for the first time, so a reread of that one is definitely on the back burner. Maybe I'll reread it on audio.Elisabeth Ellingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00747914394861199796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2202949130902554989.post-47508718818468594792014-10-13T09:55:13.280-04:002014-10-13T09:55:13.280-04:00Interesting about The Flat Rabbit.
