Thanks Chris, I am sure I will like it. And it helps when it is engrossing. I am really not sure when I will get around to reading it. I was actually surprised to see it at our UBS, and it was also on the sale shelf! That is always nice!

Chris (cbrunner11) | 674 comments I love finds like that. I get so excited when I find a book like that as a Kindle Daily deal for really cheap.

Thank you, Janie. I'm looking forward to your thoughts on it. There's a film adaptation, starring Samuel L. Jackson, which I have not seen but received positive reviews, if I remember correctly. I'd be interested in seeing how the novel and film differ/stay the same.

Sorry it disappointed you Kathryn. I hate when that happens.

Ok so yea I got more books today *sigh* (it is a sickness) But we ended up with the first of The Hunger Games, The Ruins, Partials, the series sounds great, we also got the Anthony Horowitz, Alex Rider series. Hub saw them and thought they might be good. So we got all the books they had in the Series, which ended up being 7. We figured that they would all be gone the next time, so why risk that.

That's a nice haul, I loved The Ruins and Hunger Games books ( still have the 3d to read) so enjoy :) I snagged an unabridged Signer Classic copy of Les Miserables by Hugo this week so I'm reading it now, fascinating to say the least.

That is such a great deal Janie- hope you enjoy them :)

the kite runner is one of my all time favorite books but it's heartbreaking.

Thanks guys! Rachel yea, I heard that Kite Runner was very good but rather sad. I could not believe it was on the sales rack and I got it for $2. I could not pass that one up.

I read The Kite Runner for school once. It was indeed a very good book and yes also very sad. (:
