Look at all the comments.<BR/><BR/>Chris-I haven't read Tamsin but if I like Private Place as much as I liked The Last Unicorn then I'll be working my way through all Beagle's works.<BR/><BR/>Nymeth-I've always wanted to read Dr. Jekyll but this seems like the perfect oppertunity to get it under my belt.<BR/><BR/>Quixotic-Carl's challenges are the best. He has such a motivating way about him.<BR/><BR/>Stephanie-All these big books scare me a bit but I'll give it my best shot. I'm excited!<BR/><BR/>Andi-I've been wanting to read it all year but I saved it especially for this challenge. I loved the movie so I look forward to the book.<BR/><BR/>Nicola-I hope I love it as much as you do.<BR/><BR/>Kailana-thanks for the recommend. I will check if my library has it.<BR/><BR/>Court-me too. Everyone else seems to agree so I look forward to reading them.Petuniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14059145750315789676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31135028.post-67337033726995237812007-08-21T20:47:00.000-07:002007-08-21T20:47:00.000-07:00That's a great list, Petunia!

Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell is a fantastic book, and I'm very tempted to read it again soon...maybe before Christmas if the rest of my reading goes according to plan! Will look forward to seeing what you think of it!<BR/><BR/>I love Peter S. Beagle's work, but like Chris, I haven't read A Fine and Private Place.
