Was Hugh's book good?

It's WONDERFUL. I highly recommend it! I bought it for Adam for Christmas and he told me I had to read it as soon as it was done because it was so good. It's a fast read, very sharp, very funny.

And just to clarify, that book really is by Hugh Laurie... the actor?

The one and only. It's got his picture on the back and everything! He wrote it in 1996. It's great, you should read it if you get a chance.

How was The Other Boleyn Girl? I think that's being made into a movie now.

I actually just started it...my list looked really pathetic with only 2 books. :P But I'm about 40 pages in and so far I really like it! It's fast reading, but very interesting. They are making it into a movie, with Scarlett Johannsson and Natalie Portman, I believe.
