I had no idea what it was about. I thought it was well-written, but it just didn't sit right with me. I only read it once, then I gave it away because I knew I wouldn't read it again (very rare for me). It's not that it was a *bad* book, on the contrary it was well done, but not for me. I probably won't see the movie (at least not in theaters), but I love Stanley Tucci and I'm glad he got nominated for a Golden Globe for this role!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13397176667036107115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3215068383325969977.post-60752490752156778972009-12-30T11:22:30.662-08:002009-12-30T11:22:30.662-08:00I started this book once and the subject matter wa...I started this book once and the subject matter was so difficult for me to take that I had to put it down.

I love the readers voice in the audio book.<br /><br />Jill, I agree that the violence bothers me a lot, for that reason alone I may not read any more of her books. <br /><br />Thanks for the comments!Lauren {Geeb}https://www.blogger.com/profile/12127992084400995650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3215068383325969977.post-705403819365687092009-12-28T06:23:02.664-08:002009-12-28T06:23:02.664-08:00I read this one a few years ago and enjoyed it, ev...I read this one a few years ago and enjoyed it, even though I was a bit unsure based on the violent events that happen at the beginning. A friend recommended I try reading Lucky by Alice Sebold but the synopsis seemed a bit too violent for me.Jill Buckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18296890779922143900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3215068383325969977.post-27784540535592675222009-12-27T22:54:30.759-08:002009-12-27T22:54:30.759-08:00My expectations on the movie is pretty low (but bo...My expectations on the movie is pretty low (but boosted by Peter Jackson, i guess) but I thoroughly enjoyed the book. <br />And I noticed you're listening to The BOok Thief right now, isn't it fantanstic? :PAudrey (holes In My brain)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02092399404120477032noreply@blogger.com
