I am really loving this story and all its characters. If only I could read them all one after another!

Not a bad book at all, and I did enjoy this much more than the movie. Yet, it seemed to waver between wanting to follow the true fairy tale and the Disney version.

I listened to this audio book and it was, quite possibly, the best audio book I have ever heard! I'm not a big fan of audio books in the first place, but I needed something for long drives to class. This book was on the YALSA list of best audio books of 2011. Anyway, this book was wonderful and nothing at all like I thought it would be! I can't wait to read the second book in the series.

A very amusing comic that gives a great twist on where the classic tale of Pinocchio left off. The comic starts with a quick and humorous summary of the actual tale of Pinocchio since the comic uses a lot of the original characters and events.

A cute book that was inspired by episodes of the Twilight Zone. It certainly has that feel, but it is a great read for all ages! Just read it, it's fun!

This series is really cute, and I'm a big fan of the artist and her style, but I really wish it would get a move on. I am not new to the manga world and I am aware it takes a friggin' decade for characters to admit their love for one another, but there also needs to be some sort of underlying conflict or plot device rather than introducing a new character each book that resolves itself right away!

Every time I read a Dresden novel I feel I need to take a break because it's so action packed and filled with stress for poor Harry. That man has about 5 people in every book trying to kill him and at least 2 relationships circling the drain, and it is never his fault. Phew! Always tough to read. Anyway, the graphic novels do a great job illustrating this series. I was sad when this second novel's last half of the comic was illustrated by Brett Booth. I have a real problem with his art. Every time a character is looking straight ahead, instead their eyes look like they're rolling up into their head! I noticed this in the Anita Blake graphic novels too. Anyway, still a good adaptation! Hooray for Harry!
