Well, it's done. I rarely stick with series, but this is totally one of the good ones. Occasionally the writing is clunky, but these characters and this world are amazing. I felt good about the resolutions to all the characters and I'm actually glad things extended as long as they did. True to the series, there are some really haunting, awful, graphic images that may get under sensitive skins. This series is killer, and totally worth the trip.

Yes, another Pratchett. I'm on a re-reading kick at the moment. Which is probably a mistake since my stack of books to be read next to my bed is currently in the region of 67. But Pratchett is one of my comfort reads, so I don't feel like apologising to myself too much. Carpe Jugulum is one of my favourites of the series. The writing and the dialogue are as sharp as ever; the characterisation of the witches is spot on; and the humour is just the right mix of wryly witty and really, really bad puns. (The vampires, for instance, live in Don'tgonearthe Castle.) The thing that really made the book for me, as is the case with all of the really good examples of the series, is Pratchett's understanding of human nature, and the pervading morality of the series. It's never something he beats you over the head with, but you come away from the book, not just entertained, but also provoked to think about things like religion and faith and modernity and what makes a person who they are. I always have to re-read the scene where Granny Weatherwax decides about twice, because, yes. Even if I don't always agree with the way Pratchett sees the world, he always delineates his views with such clarity and such precision, that I really love it. The Nac Mac Feegle are also the best thing ever. 'Snafflin' coobeasties!' I have love.

Gosh, I can't heap any more praise on to Tolkien or this trilogy! It's a fantastic book, and that's all there is to it.

The Folklore of Devon is organised into chapters and sections that are each devoted to a specific area of legend and myth. The Devil seems to have a special place in Devon folklore, and many of the stories collected in this book involve someone who either makes or tries to get out of a deal with Old Scratch. One particular instance of the Devil's appearance in Devon involves the Great Thunderstorm of Widecombe-in-the-Moor in 1638, when a blast of ball lightning struck the church of St Pancras during the middle of the afternoon service, killing four people, injuring more than 50 others, and severely damaging the church. (The Devil had apparently made a pact with a local man, who claimed that Satan could come for his soul if he ever fell asleep during a church service -- and presumably, events transpired in just that way.) Sir Francis Drake is another strong source of Devon legend, particularly in places like Plymouth, and Whitlock mentions the well-known story of Drake's drum and the lasting belief that great naval heros of later years (like Nelson) were reincarnations of good Sir Francis, brought back to life to serve England in her greatest need. There are tales of witches and fairies (both good and evil) and their relationships with humans, as well as a group of legends and variations that centre on the ghosts and spirits that are said to haunt the wilds of Dartmoor. The book closes with chapters on legend and lore as a part of daily life in Devon and folklore that was incorporated into the calendar year. Whitlock writes well, and I note from the endpapers of the book that he also wrote the volume in this series on folklore of the British Isles that deals with the folklore of Wiltshire. I believe that Whitlock grew up in Wiltshire and collected legends and stories from there that were most likely the source material for that particular volume. I may have to go looking for it, if only to flip through it and see what he has to say about his native soil.

In my opinion, this book deserves no stars what so ever. Excuse my chinese but, this book is trash on a stick. The author proves the reader with so much imagery, that the plot becomes as insipid as watching paint dry on a wall. I have had more fun when I look out the window. Maybe it is because I am young and this old fart that is considered "literature" is old... But that's just my opinion.

Thoughts on the whole series: It made me think, it made me laugh, it made me cry. One of the best stories ever written could wrap up my opinion on this comic book. Simply amazing, I highly recommend it, cause really, how far is this fiction? what would happen if all the men died? Even the sci fi stuff here doesn't seem that far fetched, to me at least. I just want to see a movie adptation of this.

This was an entertaining and witty book, right up through the first 2/3 of the book, but as the older characters get older, they get Much less convincing and the final scenes are flat and cliche'd and it just falls flat on its face.

In Interrupting Chicken, the 2011 Caldecott Honor book by David Ezra Stein, a chicken and her Papa sit down to read a series of classic fairy tales before it's time to go sleep. Chicken promises not to interrupt the stories, but then proceeds to do so time and again, unable to help herself. When she finally settles down, Papa reverses the roles by falling asleep and interrupting the last story with his snoring. When I was reading this, I focused mostly on the art, since that's what won the award, and once I started looking carefully at the illustrations, I realized how truly brilliant they are. The title page draws us into the story with a spread showing a quiet and empty house, with low lamps burning, and various items left lying around, illustrating how Chicken and Papa must have spent their day. This picture is warm and homey and felt very realistic to me. Especially impressive is the way Stein uses light to indicate that night has fallen, and that the house is dark and quiet. On the verso side of that first page, there is one full page of gorgeous green wallpaper, followed on the recto side by a field of white with one circle in the center. Inside that circle, Papa helps Chicken into her pajamas. Over the next few pages, the reader is drawn in closer and closer to the bed - the white space surrounding the images slowly disappears with each page turn, until the entire page is filled with color, and it feels like the reader is all tucked in along with Chicken. From here, we zoom in even further and settle on the pages of the book as Papa starts to read. The pages themselves have lots of neat details, including food particles and other objects left behind in the crevices. Papa begins reading the standard fairy tale texts, but each time, Chicken explodes onto the pages with warnings for the stories' characters. When this happens, the old fashioned looking illustrations within the fairy tales react to Chicken with annoyance, and rearrange themselves on the page to accommodate her outbursts. She keeps promising not to interrupt, but keeps it up anyway as they attempt to read Hansel and Gretel, Red Riding Hood, and Chicken Little. In the end, Chicken ends up writing her own story, with amazingly child-like crayon illustrations, and truly realistic misspellings, such as "Chikn." In addition to being visually appealing, this book fills the need for more picture books featuring fathers and daughters, and especially fathers reading to their kids. It would make a nice father's day read for families, and maybe even a nice gift for fathers, since the humor here will appeal easily to adults as well as children. David Ezra Stein's other picture books include: Pouch, Leaves, Monster Hug!, The Nice Book, Cowboy Ned and Andy, and Ned's New Friend. His website can be found at davidezra.com. Read for #nerdcott.

Read this book moving from Cincinnati to Utah. I was in the moving truck and we drove across those states. He must've been lonely as I read, but we were really estranged by that point. I remember briefly talking to him about the book with the notion that he wouldn't/couldn't understand. Couldn't understand why I liked the book or really understand me. Was that a product of my age at the time or a real component of my relationship with my Dad? We've never really gained a relationship since then and I don't know why. Anyway, the book was pretty good. I don't really remember the fouth novella (the first 3 have become movies) but I hear it's the best one.
