Well, of course you are :) it's pure awesomeness!
I'm now 400 pages into Graceling and the last 100 pages I was holding my breath and I was shivering with emotion. The cold of Katsa taking Bitterblue through the mountain pass came straight through the pages to me. Incredible!!Oh and I just bought The Book Thief for me and To Kill a Mockingbird for my wife :)
This book
has to be one of the best dystopians I have ever read. Thank you David!! I was so excited to get my paperback yesterday!

I'm only about 20 pages into Cinder. Couldn't keep my eyes open last night, lol. But, I'm already loving it. I really like Cinder's character and what I've seen of the world was pretty cool too. I have a gooood feeling about this book :)

Wow that's great to hear!! I might have to read it and then The Book Thief, tough call...
Cinder was awesome too so either way you are good David. The Book Thief takes some getting into before you are invested IMO so give it time.
Just bought:
I went to Book Warehouse, they had 4 for $15 on hardcovers & the fashion book is amazing so I had to get it.

Shoot! I had a chance to buy The Messenger really cheap at a used bookstore but I passed as I hadn't read anything by him :) Eek I'll have to go back and see if it's still there!!

I Am the Messenger was great (weird ending but great) - excellent on audiobook as well (just as Book Thief was).

Oh good! I'll be able to relate. I'm an 80's child, also. I want to get the adult novel that follows this prequel but I've heard it's a waste of time.
