Die 13 1/2 Leben des Käpt'n Blaubär
Lookie here! I'm posting!
So, I realize this book may not necessarily be readable for everybody on the list... but it is also available
AUF ENGLISCH! I think I can safely assume that it is also very good (and more understandable... for myself as well, probably) and could probably be likened to something of a Roahl Dahl (Moers is also a cartoonist and writer of adult humor books) readability. There's a lot of vivid imagination food and even pictures to help along! I reeeeeally like it and want everyone to read it... much like Harry Potter. All I want to do is read this book and the cool world Blaubär is in. I also relate in the fact that I am also a bär.
Plus... he's so cute! He's found as a baby in a walnut shell from dwarf pirates! Come on!

Continued... Of Bees and Mist
I feel that this book deserves two posts now that I have finished. First off, I'm not exactly sure why I loved it so much and even when a friend asked me what it was about yesterday I just started at them dumbly. I'm no longer at a loss for words though.. this story is about magic, mother-in-laws, love, deceit, etc. Everything a good novel should be made off. I could possibly even describe it as Harry Potter for adults, but that might be taking it a step too far. Yes, it probably would be. Just read it... and tell me what YOU think.
5 Stars from Isabelle.

Of Bees and Mist
I've started reading a book that we published (surprise, surprise!) and so far I am really loving it. This book is called "Of Bees and Mist" and it is written by Erick Setiawan. So far it seems like it could be a good read for middle/high school girl, in reference to previous blogersations. Do you like my new word?
I must admit that I'm not too far in yet, but so far I, the hater of book to movie, have a great plan for Tim Burton to direct and Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter to play the parents. I am already imagining this as I read...
On a side note, if you go to Amazon to look for the book (or click this link) you will see under the cover design some thumbnails that I CREATED! Yippee.
I need to stop using ( ) so much.
