I...I read The Giver just before I started blogging. I remember not overly liking it, BUT I think I'd appreciate it more if I read it now. The "Matched" series is similar(except more romance than I think you'd prefer). It made me think, though, which I appreciated.<br /><br />I started reading The Secret Garden last year, and never finished it. I need to fix that!Bluerosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00680170638396181756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1903409844961124425.post-90902074844546493732014-02-25T13:17:46.288-05:002014-02-25T13:17:46.288-05:00I'm another who still hasn't read The Boy ...I'm another who still hasn't read The Boy in the Striped Pajamas... must read it I suppose! I'm loving the Incorrigible Children series. Discovered the audio books at the library so my daughter (age 10) is enjoying them now too though I'm not sure she gets some of the humor.

(This week anyway.) I just haven't gotten around to reviewing the ones I read for my own reading pleasure. <br /><br />I'm hoping to finish off The Father Brown series this month.

The Boy in the Striped Pajamas as well - so poignant to view the prison camps through the eyes of a child. Love the Incorrigible books and the Hobbit as well. <br /><br />I'm glad that Kate Morton book was good. I read a different one by her and just loved her writing, but a very bad instance of language and the soap-opera-ishness of one part of the plotline turned me off, so I haven't read her since. I might give this one a try.Barbara H.http://barbarah.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
