re Shadow in the North
I also enjoyed the Sally Lockhart series. My favorite was the 3rd book, The Tiger in the Well. 11. Shadow in the North by Philip Pullman: the second book in the Sally Lockhart Victorian mystery series. Gripping plot, good character development, just as good as the first in the series!
12. The Big Four by Agatha Christie: a novel about Hercule Poirot's encounters with the criminal gang, ... Shadow in the North by Philip Pullman. This is the second in the Sally Lockhart mysteries. This book, though still a quick, ya-type read, is even darker than the first, with grim endings for some good guys and bad guys alike.

I'm also still picking away at the audiobook of The Shadow in the North. Partly I've been busy, but mostly I'm just not that interested, so I'm only listening to maybe 10-15 minutes of it a day.

Still listening to The Shadow in the North by Philip Pullman, and for some reason I'm just not particularly invested in it yet. ... so they'll be fresh in my mind so I can see just how much the movie gets wrong. :)
I am smack in the middle of the Shadow in the North, the second Sally Lockheart book. Thus far, HDM is definitely the better series... The first Sally Lockheart book had a really good set-up, and really ... ... the Uglies trilogy, yesterday afternoon, although that shouldn't take more than another day or two.
I'm listening to The Shadow in the North, the second in the Sally Lockheart Mysteries series, but I'm not terribly invested in it.

Shadow in the North by Philip Pullman ... Somehow it doesn't feel quite right that a 500 page book should be so easy to read in one evening...
Now returning to Shadow in the North, which I put aside (er, for the evening...) while I read Twilight. Kira - Thanks!
