The sequels aren't as good.
Good to know. I was thinking of reading them as well but now I'm sceptical.
21. The Devil's Pool by George Sand (read 05/02/14)Beautiful prose, nice story but not really creepy for a gothic novel.
22. Children on the Oregon Trail by An Rutgers van der Loeff (read 06/02/14)23. The Black Lake by Hella S. Haasse (read 07/02/14)

43. A Tale of a Tub by Jonathan Swift (read 18/03/14)44. The Dead in Their Vaulted Arches by Alan Bradley (read 21/03/14)
How was A Tale of a Tub? I have it on my Kindle but some of the reviews scared me off of reading it!
Leslie wrote: "How was A Tale of a Tub? I have it on my Kindle but some of the reviews scared me off of reading it!"It was VERY hard to read. It's quite short actually (ca. 150 pages) but took me much longer than expected. I also wouldn't have understood it without reading some notes on it. Definetely not something I'd recommend as a pleasure read even though it's brilliant once you know what it's about.

Thanks, that is what I had read. I guess I will make sure that I have notes too when I take the plunge...
