He's diabolical in his logic and I just adore that. He's not nearly as much fun when he gets older.<br /><br />But, the History of Love? I love, love, love that book. I've read it twice now and each time had a smile on my face for about the entire last quarter. I just think it's beautiful and unique and really wonderful. <br /><br />I think I'm going to have to look up the Book Thief . . . it sounds darn good, too!--Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00503615321799912549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22500980.post-80798409154007504902006-11-17T18:22:00.000-07:002006-11-17T18:22:00.000-07:00Framed, I think one of the things that is wearing ...<b>Framed</b>, I think one of the things that is wearing on my nerves is the way Amelia talks and treats Ramses.

I could go on rapturously about her Vicky Bliss books for hours.<br /><br />I really loved the Amelia books, especially the first one. Did you know Peters didn't intend for that to become a series, but it was so well-received that she ended up writing the series?<br /><br />I love the character of Sethos too. I've had him in mind in several books I've written (as-yet not published) and I think John Smythe, from the Vicky Bliss books, might be some form of Sethos.<br /><br />Love it when Emerson gets all jealous.
