[Ellie]

Hey just a quick question.

I am currently reading The Horse and His Boy by C.S. Lewis which is a book in the Chronicle of Narnia series. Would you classify this as a children's book? I looked on Goodreads and it's genre section said Classic, Young Adult, Children, Fantasy...

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

I would say it's covered under all those headings Ellie :) If you're asking can you read it for this challenge - yes you can :)

I think the weather agrees with you Brenda. The roof just sprung a leak and the backyard has flooded. Which started going into the granny flat, so my poor mother-in-law has been madly sweeping water out for the past couple hours, while we've been trying to build up guttering and retaining walls :(

So I probably wont be able to read much tonight :'(

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Oh no Michelle! That's terrible...good luck with it all! **hugs**

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Just finished another - Murder, Mayhem & Men On Pause by Sandy Curtis - 396 pages

Amazing Michelle!!

[MichelleG]

Thanks Brenda. It's just been non-stop heavy rain for 2 days :(

[Deb]

Finished earlier today = 368 pages.

Have started and I suspect that was a tactical error; I have been looking forward to this one, but the main character is such an unlikable bitch of a train wreck, well, it is neither smooth nor easy to read. Only done 76 pages so far.
