The Magician's Nephew

Just read a C.S. Lewis book because I started reading it to Braeden and it got my attention. "The Magician's Nephew" it's a really interesting story. Very quick and easy read, might have something to do with it being a children's story. =o) Written with vivid descriptors I was able to imagine each bit of the scenes which I love in a book.

The main characters are Polly and Digory, neighbors. They both have their own family issues and so they find themselves adventuring together and becoming good friends one summer. One adventure leads them to another world, or rather the place between worlds.

This is the first of C.S. Lewis's books to introduce Narnia. And as usual with Lewis, the theme revolves around good and evil.

I want to get "The Appeal" by John Grisham.

Has anyone read this yet?

I enjoy John Grisham novels, but sometimes have a hard time telling them apart. I am hoping this one is a little bit different.

I'm also next in line for borrowing "Eat, Pray, Love: One Woman's Search for Everything Across Italy, India and Indonesia" by Elizabeth Gilbert. Chris and Danielle read it and now Carrie is holding it captive. It looks so good and I have heard nothing but wonderfulness about it.
