Since joining the library and this thread I have taken note of recommendations and read a far wider range of books. Some that will stay in my heart forever....
So having recently finished what has been described to me as a fantasy book, and then finally getting my hands on this intriguing book....we'll all I can say is yes, I too have fallen in love with this book and its characters. If you want my opinion for nothing I think it should be made into a film.
I'd rather watch this than all the usual bilge served up at the cinema.....and it's something the world needs to watch with the state the world is in.
As I would self describe myself as a bit of a soft ha'porth I might unfortunately embarrass whoever I went to see this at the cinema with if they made a film of it, as I did find myself sobbing at some points in the book but also laughing at others.
I only know that when I hear the song Somewhere Beyond The Sea next there might be the suspicious glint of a tear in my eye.



ETA forgot to mention it was The House In The Cerulean Sea.
