Enchanted Book

Well, last week I finished a book that I had always  wanted to read, but for some reason had never started it. The Enchanted Castle by E. Nesbit. I loved it! If you have read, Five Children and It, or The Amulet, and enjoyed them, then you will love this book.

It had mystery, humor, wit, magic, and secret passageways. I would count it one of my favorite Nesbit books.

This week will be War of the Worlds, by Wells. I hope I'll like it.

White Witch

I finished the White Witch last week. I had never read an Elizabeth Goudge book before so this was a new experience for me.

I really liked the book's writing style. It was descriptive, informative, and a little poetic. I likes the story but did not entirely like the ending. It ended too quick and without enough information. And two of my favorite characters did not end as I wanted. Ah-well.

It looks like the Enchanted Castle, by Nesbit.
