The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime is a really good book. It wasn't exactly what i expected but I enjoyed it.

I may get to it eventually, but I've got too many books I want to read at the minute. Of course that fact doesn't seem to stop me from buying them, I'm drastically running out of shelf space.

The book Watership Down is weirder than the film and it is dark and it does differ from the film considerbaly in parts (in the books there's a lto post-Woindwort we never see in the film.). I enjoyed it though the film gave me nightmares as a child.

I can't really remember much about Watership down other than it was really sad. I seem to also remember a very vicious bunny fighting with and possibly killing some of the other bunnies. The film left such an impression on me that I try very hard to avoid seeing any of it whenever it's on the tv.

The Magicans Nephew is one of the weaker chronicles of Narnia. Along with The Last Battle and The Silver chair. Only half are good IMHO.

I believe I was trying to read the books in order. I'd already read the lion, the witch and the wardrobe and possibly Prince Caspian (as I seem to remember a bit about it but don't think I watched the tv show) and was starting with the magician's nephew as it was the first one. After I gave up on that one I didn't bother reading any of the others.
