    OMG this book was soooooo sad! It made me angry to see Nita and Kit fightin and going through so much unbeable heart torturing pain. But this still was a good book, but i thought that it needed a happier ending sort of! (Anyone else agree?) It left me felling sad a torn apart for days. I just don't know what else to say... Oh well thats just me and i usually don't feel that way about books!

        I loved and hated this book in equal measure. I finally got _Abroad_ and _Dilemma_ a couple days after Christmas (my sister gave me a WaldenBooks giftcard, which tells me she knows me a lot better than she lets on) and read them both within the week.

        (Unfortunately, my school library got _Alone_ before Christmas vacation, and I read it then, so I had a vague idea of what was going to happen.)

        I hated 'seeing' Nita's mom in a hospital bed, fighting cancer. I've liked Mrs. Callahan from book one, because she seems a lot like my mom. And my mom would react the same way if I told her I was a wizard (I'm not, but I can wish): stunned disbelief, then slow acception.

        But the fight between Nita and Kit, while it may have ticked off some of you and upset others, made me like them that much more. When they're always getting along, I feel like I can't measure up. My best friend (We're both girls, which means nothing. Our relationship is similiar to N/K's, but without the life/death stuff and clinging to each other in mortal terror, oh and without the wizardry, and this is a long aside, I'll start the sentence over again.)

        My best friend and I fight all the time, well, off and on. Our longest fight lasted a month - most of them last about an hour until we start talking again. We don't generally apologize, either of us, just move on from the fight. So when best friends in books are always "Oh, I'm so glad you're here, what would I ever do without you?" it annoys me.

        Just my unique worldview...

          I can't stand to see Kit and Nita fight it just makes me sad. The way they were fighting it looked like they would never be friends again. I read each one in one day. I don't mean that I read them all in the same day I mean that I read one in one day one in another ect. They were all soooooooooooo great I also read A Wizard Alone and it was awesome too!

                That would be logical, yes, but "Jub-jub" also sounds Ewokian.
