adele I just finished what I saw - LOVE!
I really liked your vlog. You got some amazing books. I really liked Howl's Moving Castle. I don't think I have ready any of the others. I just got Wintergirls by Laurie Halse Anderson and it will be my second. I did read Speak which I found to be very moving. Happy reading!
I really, really liked the movie Howl's Moving Castle. I also enjoyed the novel What I Saw and How I Lied. Have a great week!
Aloha!!!

Nice! Haven't read any of these, but they look good. Am most curious about Chains, so will take a closer look.
Enjoy!
I've always been curious about Criss Cross. I can't wait for your review! :]
What I Saw and How I Lied was a good book, it raised lots of questions when we used during a book discussion group. Great vlog!
Great vlog! Howl's Moving Castle is my favorite book by Wynne Jones. Enjoy your books
Great books and great vlog! I love anything by Laurie Halse Anderson :)
Loved your Vlog, all the way from Japan. How cool!
The What she saw books sounds great.
Enjoy your reading.
I need to get What I Saw in paperback, I had it in hardcover but I gave it away. Happy reading!!
Outside Beauty seems really interesting, and as you said, the cover does look pretty.
Happy reading. =)
Why are you in Japan??
I was in Tokyo last July!!
I've seen the Howl's Moving Castle movie but not read the book. Looks good :) Can't wait to hear your thoughts!! Happy Reading
You are AH-dorable! Thanks so much for letting me know about Prophecy in Japan. It's totally awesome, and I would never have known without you (especially since I am deep in the writing cave right now).
ON another note, I saw Judy Blundell give the keynote speech at Anderson's incredible YA Conference last September, and she was fantastic. I haven't' had a chance to read What I Saw and How I Lied, but I've hear great things about it. Can't wait to hear your thoughts, too.
