I made sure to have a box of kleenex right next to me too. Its such an amazing book, especially for being her first novel.

I always feel vindicated when other people tell me that’s how they feel about the book too. So thank you! Actually, I have a friend that can’t even get to the end of the book! She was too distraught when it got to “that” part… I’m still trying to force her to finish it.

I feel exactly the same. I couldn’t function for a week after having finished this book. I still can’t get myself to sit down and read it again. Too much of an emotional investment.

I really hope the movie turns out OK. I hope the author has plenty of say in what goes on.

It is a borderline obsession with this book. Every time I read it, I have to take a week to gather myself and not sob uncontrollably every two seconds.

I’m nervous about the movie too. Hopefully Rachel McAdams will save it.

It is a horrible mess. The book is much better. I’m glad NG was so fed up with the BBC production that he wrote the book as a correct version of his vision.

I’ll probably be buried with it. I do re-read the LOTR every couple of years, at least, one book of the series anyways. Feels like home.
I felt the same about Stardust, and Neverwhere was my first NG book also, that was great, though I never saw the BBC production.
Peace,
