Someone has accidentally put both A and B for the Strength of Plot section. I can look it up, but if you know who you are, PM me with the correct grade that you want recorded or none of your votes will count.

A A B

I dunno..I thought the note at the end was a little cheesey..so I give it a B but that's probably just me being a cynical beast ;)

Again this is one of my favorites :)

I'm having a hard time with the specific grading for this one because its been 10 years since I read it. What do you guys think? Better to just put "never read" for the sake of accuracy?

No, better to just give it all the A's it deserves. http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k291/mishemplushem/Facilitation/bear_wink-1.gif

....Better to just put "never read" for the sake of accuracy?

I would say do what you feel comfortable with. If you don't think you can give it an honest score based on your memory of the book than mark it never read.

That's what I was leaning towards. Thank you for functioning as the voice of reason. :)
