Everyone I know has seen the play Wicked. Unfortunately, I have not, so I'm planning on reading the book. Anyone know how it compares to the play?

The last thing I added to my TBR list was the Uglies series by Scott Westerfeld. I've had at least three people recommend this to me, so I finally broke down and added it.

by Elizabeth Blackwell, The Night Bird (Frost Easton #1) by Brian Freeman and The Hollywood Daughter
by Kate Alcott to name a few.

I had to go look this one up on my Goodreads TBR pile... it kind of surprised me. The last one that I added was apparently "Cannibalism: a perfectly natural history" by Bill Schutt.

"CIA Assassin and other stories". I never imagined that I'd be interested in a book about this subject, but I read a free sample and I had to add it to my tbr list.

Oops, I just added one more book to the list. It is "Frog Hospital" by Fred Owens.

I think the last book I added to my "Want to Read" list is Prince Caspian by C.S. Lewis. I also added The Door in the Hedge by Robin Mckinley.
