The waiting was torture in our house - but we are almost finished reading The Runaway King (I;m reading it aloud to my ten year olds) and just in time as we have tickets to see Jennifer A. Nilesen in person next week! We are VERY excited. Such intrigue and suspense!Carrie Gelsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08416480940951200461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3031142435142384571.post-50312303096604813582013-04-08T19:19:29.571-07:002013-04-08T19:19:29.571-07:00Hi Gigi, you've made me want to read the rest ...Hi Gigi, you've made me want to read the rest of those haiku books. I have read Won Ton & liked it. And I just can't find enough time to read more of The False Prince, but I will! And I already have the 2nd one ready. I didn't know The City of Ember was out in a graphic novel-interesting. I liked the first, & probably won't get to this one.

I haven't started it yet, though, because I have a feeling I won't be able to put it down until I'm finished: it's going to be my treat when the semester is over and the papers are graded!Elisabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18185908392196878158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3031142435142384571.post-82681808373605560572013-04-08T11:10:47.981-07:002013-04-08T11:10:47.981-07:00Guyku looks interesting...what an author/illustrat...Guyku looks interesting...what an author/illustrator match-up!

I agree with you about that boys need more bike riding with baseball cards in the spikes.<br /><br />So glad you liked The False Prince. I think The Runaway King is just as good.
