Ooh, ooh, ooh! What did you think of the Gaean stuff? They're three of my all-time favourite books and I re-read them over and over.

REALLY?! Daniel lent them to me, they were so brilliant :D Lovelovelove!

An epic - and remarkably wtf? - film just begging to be made :D

[thebarkside.livejournal.com]

YES! This would be brilliant. It'd be so long. It'd have to be a trilogy of course. Haha. I love the fact that not much happens in the first book but then just kicks off.

hehe there are two of my favourite books on that list :D

Did you like Revolutionary Road? I might take a look at it, LOVED the movie.

[thebarkside.livejournal.com]

I did! I read the book first (I picked it up in a bargain bin somewhere) and thought it was brilliant great - so dark. Film was exactly like the book, I found. :D

Edited, because I used the word 'brilliant' far too much.
