I'd say you've sold it to me, but I have a feeling it might be on my list of TBRs not yet acquired already. .-= Fern´s last blog ..This is Not Fern’s Blog =-.

Wow, I've always shied away from this due to the depressing nature of the plot, but your review makes it sound so necessary! Thanks for sharing your thoughts. .-= Rebecca Reid´s last blog ..Reading Journal (30 December): Happy New Year (Briefly) =-.

Blake – I actually do need some lighters. I have exactly three matches in my house and no lighters. Thanks for not eating my puppy.

Wisteria – I think you’ll be glad when you finally get to it.

J.T. – Thanks! I, too, was amazed by the number of reviews. I guess between Oprah and the Pulitzer, it’s on a lot of people’s TBR lists.

Teddy – I’m glad to hear you enjoyed it. I’m not rushing out to see the movie either – even though I really love Viggo Mortensen.

Jenny – The lack of quotation marks, apostrophes, and dialog attribution is a little distracting at first, but then I found it easy to ignore.

Leah – I hope you do enjoy it when you get to it!

I am leery of reading this because it hasn’t got any quotation marks (and oh yeah, because of all the bleakness :P) – but you make it sound well worth the trouble!

I read this book before my blogging days. I really enjoyed it. I saw a trailor for the up coming movie and wasn't too impressed but I'll reserve judgement until I see some reviews. .-= Teddy´s last blog ..Her Mother's Daughter: A Novel of Queen Mary Tudor by Julianne Lee =-.

Like you, I have had this book a long, very long time. Now I need to read it as well. Thanks for your review and reminding me that I need to get busy!

I think we should all start hoarding lighters.

I wouldn’t eat your dog either, Jess.
