The Passage - Justin Cronin

[Pixie]

I have read the first chapter of The Book of Flying, and oh my, do I adore it so far! It reminds me of another favorite of mine, The Last Unicorn by Peter S. Beagle. That was a book I read once for the poetry, twice for the story, and thrice for the meanings within meanings. This one looks to have very similar re-readable qualities. I am in reading nirvana right now.

 

Somehow I posted this in the wrong thread. I apologize. I hope a mod can move it for me.
