I love Greenwitch, mostly because Jane gets to have a bigger role, but Grey King has dogs so <3

I read Silo recently (I haven't seen the TV show), and I found it rather odd. It didn't seem like a book for children at all. So much time and energy is invested in the characters at the beginning (the Mayor and Deputy Sheriff) that when they died I found myself pretty much mourning them for the rest of the story and frustrated that no one could revenge them/bring their murderer to justice. Maybe this is the point Howey was trying to make: move on, and justice will find its own way. I am not a mover on. I am a holder on.

Oh, I love The Dark Is Rising! (Though Greenwitch is my least favorite. I'm not a fan of the full-on paganism.) But I do love this series! I have fond memories of reading as a child, in deep Chicago winter, sitting in front of our heater. I reread it every few years. It makes me happy to see someone else enjoying it!
