Cassandra | 5832 comments Congratulations, Helen! What was your favorite book of the challenge?


message 821: by Helen (new)

Helen (hpfish13) | 272 comments They're are really different from each other, but I really enjoyed both Pillars of the Earth and As You Wish. I went into Pillars of the Earth having seen the miniseries, which I loved, and it surpassed my expectations. For As You Wish, I listened to the audiobook read by Cary Elwes and a bunch of the cast and crew of The Princess Bride, and that made it a particularly enjoyable book.
