One that I will disagree with you about is ENDERS - I don't like a partial, but this particular novel is a huge favorite in our household, myself and both children.Colum Amoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15026647589873845732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869983234842507044.post-79284505832231500172018-04-13T11:24:32.099-04:002018-04-13T11:24:32.099-04:00I was not clear - I, too, dislike BSTARS.

And sure - it's not in the same category as ENDERS and BSTARS, but I still don't love it.Horace Fawleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04676932991883111336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869983234842507044.post-73958868249915510852018-04-13T10:52:32.906-04:002018-04-13T10:52:32.906-04:0018:44

I tried CUrSER at 1A for a while, but it didn't last too long, and I, too, initially entered ScARcE where SPARSE belongs, but really, nothing was too Friday-difficult. UMLAUT is excellent, to add to Horace's "good" list, as are CRANIA and GREAVE (the latter always fondly bringing to mind "The Iliad"). I have to part ways with Horace on BSTARS since, as I've said before, even for those of us that pay attention to such things, no one is memorizing star classifications. Ask me to point out Rigel and Spica and I will, but ask me in two days what their classification is and forget it.Huygenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14539030936919012404noreply@blogger.com
