The Mysterious Benedict Society

after reading 1. the time travelers wife 2. extremely loud and incredibly close

i am now half way through The Mysterious Benedict Society.

this book... ROCKS.  its like all the joys of harry potter type stories:  orphan children who are unimportant to the world suddenly discovering they are extremely talented and KEY to something big.

all the joys of roald dahl's writing style: especially Constance... who is freaking hilarious.

all the joys of lemony snicket: group of children who face a lot of evil people and aren't ever believed because they are simply children.

idk its just GREAT.

its not a like... SIMPLE read... though it is for children... its intriguing and enjoyable... and even though it does probe my mind intellectually idk... its just soooo good. :)

i'm going to finish it quickly and hand it off to meaghan and go pick up the next one.

also question:  is michelle still my friend?
