I'm not sure that book would even be good enough as a planter, but it would be a use for it at least. I, sadly, don't feel like I can part with my copy because it was a gift from the dear friend that introduced me to my husband. And while the book was awful, her friendship and her match-making skills are bar none. She wouldn't be insulted if she knew I gave it away, though! LOL Betsy on the “Eragon” quip!

Poor Eragon. Donated mine to the library. I do think Woody Harrelson as mercurial, unreliable drunk will go over well -- but I hear ya on Tommy Lee Jones - he is Scariest Man Ever when he plays the villain. I vote yes! And I'm glad to hear that the author of Anna Hibiscus is soldiering forward. I do get tired of other people trying to determine what an author knows, based on such flimsy assumptions. Those books really are cool. Hahahahahah! Poor Eragon. Donated mine to the library.

Will have to see if I can track down Laurel Croza's book - that's new to me. As to plant pots my favourite this week has been this (nothing to do with books, but such a clever use of cacti!) - http://etsy.me/jimdyd. And can't you help me out with a lovely Danish picture book suggestion? I'm still searching.... Ah! Will have to see if I can track down Laurel Croza’s book – that’s new to me.
