I'm not sure, I don't think I have read the Katherine Briggs one. It's a bunch of short stories and a couple poems.

Haha yea it's fine as you haven't bought anything in ages :D And I am sure you need that stuff :P
Oh no :/ I agree with you, it's fine if the focaliser and narrator switch, but that shouldn't happen too often..

Yeah, need.... >.> haha
I'm enjoying the book in general but it does just yank you up out of the storyline and make you have to tread water for a bit while you reorient yourself.

I've abandoned my challenge entirely at this point, and am just reading what I get to...
Still trying to sort through a number of books from Elders. They can really pile up if I let them.

Earth Gen 18, Light Gen 19, Fire Gen 21, Air/Light/Water Gen 22, Light Gen 23, Earth/Light Gen 25, Darkness Gen 26.
Please PM me if you can help!

You can always keep the books, Akili, so no problem at all!

No, can't keep all of them. Last Elder who moved in came to me from 40-odd years in a three-story house that was pretty filled with bookcases. They wouldn't all FIT, even if I moved all the people out of my house and just had books living here instead....
There are boxes in our house now, and more boxes waiting in various neighbors' houses, too.
A lot of them I'm not even trying to read. For instance, all those old electrical manuals? I don't need that many out of date electrical manuals, and neither does the Elder who kept three shelves of them (an entire box worth!). I went online to look up the titles, kept three, and dropped the rest off at the local used book store for some credit there.
But there are a lot of boxes that aren't so easy to sort, so it's taking a while. The neighbors are being sweet, and are definitely owed pie at the very least.

Ah, I see.. Isn't it still fun to sort all these boxes? Even though there are so many of them? :) Also nice of your neighbours to take care of the boxes for now :)
