One word thoughts/reviews always seem to indicate to me that the book is so great that it's hard to really spell out why. Hopefully that is the case here!

IF something seems like it is going to happen I abandon the book. It just really bothers me. I will have to check out the Giants in the Earth!Erin @ Quixotic Magpiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10528275471104279266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7525935409718931244.post-74780267388861058072012-09-11T13:48:49.210-07:002012-09-11T13:48:49.210-07:00Watership Down is my favorite book, hands down.

But I'm sure it would be extremely impacting. The Children's Blizzard also sounds like it would be difficult but fascinating. Reminds me of Giants in the Earth on my list, because they are both about hardships on the prairie.
