I'm still reading Outcast Of Redwall, but I'm almost done with it. Then I'll be reading Mariel Of Redwall.

Allot of people seem to be reading Watership Down...why is it so popular?

It's one of the most influential xenofiction (fiction from an animal's POV) novels of all time.  Not the first - I mean, there's Aesop's Fables and such from hundreds if not thousands of years ago - but it was influential because it was one of the earliest modern ones and groundbreaking in its day.  Kinda like how Lord of the Rings is for high fantasy.  Series like Redwall might not have existed without Watership Down.

Is Watershipp Down the one about rabbits? Or am I thinking of something else.

Yes, it's about rabbits.

Yeah I am thinking about the right book. 

[Kera Thorn Bladewind]

I'm reading The Unwanteds, and feeling that if I lived in Quill...I'd be Unwanted from birth. I don't go a day without at the very least singing something. O_O I am doomed...

Re-reading Wind in the Willows. Plan to re-read The Count of Monte Christo. Read that one thirty years ago, so it deserves a re-read. Its really great stuff, as I recall.

[Kera Thorn Bladewind]

Now...I go to read Warriors: New Prophecy: Sunset. Very much reluctant to read this...my sister told me they killed one of my favorite characters...(I don't care if he's evil, I like him!)

[rachel25]

Hind's Feet On High Places. Not something I'd instantly go for, but my sister insists its a good book. So I'll check it out.

I had a friend whose mom was working on a screenplay for that book
