Lilywhite Posted November 13, 2006 Posted November 13, 2006 This sounds brilliant. I have always paused over TGWTPE in the library but never actually picked it up but having read this review I think I may give this one a go. I love these kind of books. Thanks Poppy Quote
Michelle Posted November 13, 2006 Posted November 13, 2006 Considering I loved Labyrinth, this may be another one for me to look out for. Argh.. too many books! lol Quote

Purple Poppy Posted November 13, 2006 Author Posted November 13, 2006 I would definitely encourage you to read it. It's not quite as in-depth as Labyrinthe, but it's not without tension and a strong climax. Its easy to read and once I got about a third of the way through I couldn't put it down. PP:006: Quote

Purple Poppy Posted November 14, 2006 Author Posted November 14, 2006 Snowflake said; I agree with you, I much preferred The Virgin Blue to TGWTPE. It is one of my favourites over the last few years. I have also read Falling Angels which is quite different to TVB and TGWTPE and have also read The Lady and the Unicorn. I cannot remember that much about Falling Angels and The Lady and the Unicorn except that they were a very good read. The Virgin Blue definately remains my favourite. If you like Tracey Chevalier then I would recommend Rose Tremain's Music and Silence, The Colour and Restoration. Thanks Snowflake. I will definitely follow your advice. I know where I can buy a copy of Fallen Angels. I didn't know about the other one. And I've made a note of Rose Tremaine's name too. Gosh....so.much to read!!! Thank you PP:006: Quote
