Yay, I'm happy that you've decided to resume the Circle series! With Dekker, it is always fun, IMO!

Well I have to continue. Like I said before, it's not that it was a bad book, but since it was basically fantasy, I had a hard time with it. But it was a big enough motivator for me to continue the series.

message 843: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 73 comments Sale at my favourite UBS! I picked up hardcover first editions of Gerald's Game, Four Past Midnight, Heart-Shaped Box by Joe Hill, and Watchers by Koontz. I also picked up a perfect hardcover copy of The Stand (revised), and a PB copy of The Cellar by Laymon.

I already have PBs of Gerald's Game and The Stand, but my copy of The Stand is almost toast. I don't think it could handle another reading.
