So... I just finished reading Watership Down. Em describes it as, "Lord of the Rings... but with rabbits." While there is no One Carrot, the rabbits do set off into the unknown into securing a better life for themselves, surviving on their wits, and in some cases their ability to kick some Peter Cottontail. This is a book you can steal from to tell bed-time stories to your kids, and at the same time keeping your eyes firmly affixed to the pages, not wanting to blink for fear the suspense will drive you crazy.
Aren't books wonderful? There's a reason people say that a movie was good... but not as good as the book.
That's all I really have to say for the moment... Good night!

Although the description of the book being about rabbits is just a bit lame, I bet its really good, and I'll read it when I have time.
