Eoin Colfer is such a talented and funny author. His enthusiasm and unique way of describing things makes him one of my favorite MG book authors. LOL Artemis Fowl has a theme song. I had a MAJOR crush on him (Artemis Fowl, not Eoin Colfer..LOL) in 6th grade or so…I was kind of heart-broken when the series ended…
Now, The Wish List had been sitting in my bookshelf for about a year now. I think it was some kind of gift…(maybe my 13th birthday?) from Momiji. LOL it seems I get all my books from you, Momiji. Glad to see you’ve begun commenting at last!
I thought the TAKS test was a great opportunity to read some books I’ve left untouched in the bookshelf…(Sorry, Momiji! But books that actually belong to me don’t have due dates!) So I opened up the book after I finished the Science TAKS. It had me flipping pages at the first page. Something about the way Colfer words things makes it ‘kid-friendly’. It made me feel young again..*wistful tears* LOL
Also, the fact that he incorporated tidbits about the afterlife…ingenious, I say. My fav. character has to be St. Peter. He’s hilarious, even though he doesn’t even try to be. Him and Meg. Yeah.
I’m glad that I picked up this book and not another one. (Yes, there are many untouched books in my bookshelf..)
