I saw a book in Borders today that I wanted and by the time I got home I'd forgotten the title! Can you guys help me? The book was in the literature section. The cover depicts a man standing in a corner, he is dressed in a suit and hat from an older time. The book is about a 13 year old boy who lost his mom at a young age. In the first few pages he describes how he talks to her constantly. I guess the book is about how he finds a book he wasn't supposed to read. It's fairly new... Any ideas? |

Sounds like The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon (good book, by the way).

Sorry I can't help but I do second Deb B. about "Shadow Of The Wind"! I believe there is a sequel just out, too? |

The second book is The Angel's Game. Not really a sequel -- and not really a prequel -- but rather a stand-alone that is the second of four books (the third and fourth are not out yet) that are connected like four pieces of a puzzle, or as the author (Zafon) writes: " [these are] stories that share a universe, a tone and some central themes and characters." |

Is there a word for that? for 'at the same general time' quells? |
