Is the bridge to terbethia coming out as a movie? I believe that's a movie I have been wanting to see. We enjoyed Narnia.

Re: my favorite books
Please post your links, that to me is one of the greatest things about runboard, getting to see the different boards and meeting people. I made a spot just for that because in looking around I found some very neat places.
Did you cry cause it was sad or was it a great movie cry? I have to watch tearjerkers. ET tore me up, lol.
I knew after watching Narnia the book had to be amazing. I could just tell.

Re: my favorite books
Tom Sharpe is a favourite of mine. I first discovered him whilst recuperating from knee surgery in 1983.I was given his two books on the South African Police(Riotious Assembly & Indecent Exposure) to while away the boredom that a hip to foot cast brings. I then of course bought more, in fact all of them. The effect he had on me was this, I didn't have a car & used bus it to work.People would be looking at me weird as out of nowhere on the bus I'd nearly be falling out of the seat laughing, I couldn't help it.Biting satire & very funny, I highly recommend him.
iction.co.uk/s/tom-sharpe/" ping="http://www.runboard.com/ping">http://www.fantasti iction.co.uk/s/tom-sharpe/
I also love anything by Clive Barker & Frederick Forsyth,tremendous writers in their own genre's.

Re: my favorite books
CS Lewis is so awesome!!! I love his fantasy trilogy...crap what's it called...it's escaping me right now...but it's about a guy who travels to other planets...it's so interesting! Also The Great Divorce is probably my favourite book of all time...it's a short read, you should get it!
I love the Harry Potters too!!! I've read them probably a hundred times each, no exaggeration!
