It is easily changed, but only seen on feed readers, not the blog. <BR/><BR/>wendy - it was slow starting, I think I've started it several times and never got past the first few pages, but once I persevered, it was worth it.<BR/><BR/>marg - I felt the same way. It's a school library book, and I've taken it home the past two summers and just finally read it. It's so short (184 pages) that it was easy to pass over. I was also concerned it was one of those <I>long</I> short classic books.<BR/><BR/>lezlie - I am now on the lookout for the next books. I don't think my library has them though, so it will be a longer term project.<BR/><BR/>lezlieraidergirl3https://www.blogger.com/profile/03629915042716259349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9088702729460953718.post-74640695220217912472008-07-28T09:47:00.000-04:002008-07-28T09:47:00.000-04:00I read this trilogy straight through, because I li...I read this trilogy straight through, because I liked Things Fall Apart so much.
