St. Francis of Assisi by G. K. Chesterton — 149
Most decidedly Catholic-like (and I'm not Catholic) and not typical Chesterton-witty. Something of a disapointment, really.
Ella Minnow Pea by Mark Dunn — 205
This book reminded me ofThe City of Ember, I guess the way the Nollopians are seperate from the rest of the world just like the Emberians were. This book is rather frightening, I found, the Nollopian government is very similar to the American government.
The Colour of Magic by Terry Pratchett — 197
This, my second Pratchett book, was a disapointment. There wasn't enough plot.
The Light Fantastic by Terry Pratchett — 241
Now, this one I liked. The plot got a little confusing at times but there was a lot more of it than the last one, and, a plus, it was a good and interesting plot. The characters aren't the best developed things ever, sadly. I found I liked Luggage quite a bit, though. A very pleasing Pratchett.
