I read two of her other books, Telling the Sea and Tyger Pool.

The books stand alone though, they aren't like other series where you feel you must read the next or previous book. I have loved Lowry since I was a child though, so do look forward to reading all of her work. Her latest book "Gossamer" is still on my wishlist.Stepford Mumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10743519363331407619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7879483355240373611.post-15400963311802950232009-07-19T13:53:52.402+08:002009-07-19T13:53:52.402+08:00Hi Patrick.

Reading too much of the same genre can get really boring after a while. It's like the stories are all the same. Hehe. Thanks for the link up btw.

I don't really like Coelho now after reading that book Eleven Minutes. Just not my kind of read.
