We will hold a drawing shortly after February 22, 2009 to determine the winners and you will be notified by email if you have won. One more reason to sign up for BookCrossing today!

Journal Entry 5 by Kebmel from Christchurch, Canterbury New Zealand on Sunday, June 21, 2009

8 out of 10

I enjoyed the movie in 1978? and I'm enjoying the book more so.
In most cases, I find the book more enjoyable than the movie,
except for 'The Eagle Has Landed', the movie surpasses the book.

There's a dearth of German perspective WWII novels/nonfiction
so Cross Of Iron/Das Geduldige Fleisch is one of the few.
The Sven Hassel pulp fiction books are ok for a chuckle.

This bookcrossing scheme is a great idea, I'll have a dung`out
and contribute from my stash!
