Well that was a given. Most adaptations are faster paced than the book that they're based off of.

Yeah. I just don't know for sure yet how to compare them. I'm not far enough along yet apparently. Thinking I will finish it within an hour and a half, though.
Cool! It's a book that sucks you in. If I had owned a copy in 6th grade when my teacher was reading it to us, I probably would have been done in about a week.
Right! LOL. I thought I would be done with it yesterday, but the computer kept me distracted haha. I will be finished today, though. Reading it right now.
Hahaha, I need to finish Ella Enchanted today. I have books out from the library (including EE) so that i can catch up with my goal.
Oh, definatly the books. I haven't read them all, but from what my sister has told me.. And the show is so, so, unrealistic. And they aren't keeping anything the same that's in the books.
Well, if it was movies, then they would be fairly true, but they need to deviate a bit for a TV Show
yes! i loved it! I had seen the movie, and the book just made it so much better for me :D i definitely recommend it!
Still reading The Kingdom Keepers.

I loved it! Even with the months of space between my reading (super-busy and never had time to read it), I still really enjoyed it! It taught me a lot for sure. It's a really good read. 5 stars from me.

Not even from the library? I would die! That's half the yea! (Although it's ironic that taking books away is a parent's way of punishing a child. Most want them to read more.)
@Emmaredfern: That's a great book. I love Eba Ibbotson. I'm so sad she died.
I almost want to find some way of sneaking Danna books, just because I fundamentally disagree of taking away books as a way of punishment.
On topic: still reading The Kingdom Keepers; been having a rough time of it lately and not much energy to do much but sleep.

Wpw...Harsh punishment much? My parents worst punishment is taking books from my shelf. Never the one that Im reading.
that does suck. I remember growing up, when my mom wanted to punish me, she'd take away my beanie babies and hide them in her closet. :SJust finished QUEEN OF ATTOLIA and currently not sure what to read next:
The Girl in the Steel Corset, The Name of the Star, Carrier of the Mark, Variant or Prophecy of the Sisters
Reading Atlas Shrugged again.
