Is it weird that when I see that classics question, I get all nostalgic for a reading experience earlier this year? It makes me want to run and pick up another Hardy!! That would be Return of the Native. As for the others...no idea!! :D

There is no way it's Friday already :-(
ReplyDeleteChildren's: Tuck Everlasting
ReplyDeleteI love that book.
Non-Fiction: NEVER CRY WOLF.
ReplyDeleteWe studied it in school, along with most of Mowat's other work. I think they made a movie, too; I remember him eating mice to prove that the wolves subsisted off of those, not the caribou.
The only one I've got is Never Cry Wolf! But I've been mulling over giving Hardy another chance next year, and now I keep seeing him mentioned in blog posts. I think the universe is telling me something. ;)

Amanda,I don't think it's weird, as I get that way for almost every one I know the answer for!
Harriet, I was thinking as I typed this one "what's with all the Elmore Leonard questions?" He is one of my least favorite authors.
Memory, I remember that part!
Eva, I read all of Hardy as an adolescent, which makes the moodiness easier to take.
