Matilda, Roald Dahl

I remember years ago reading James and the Giant Peach and loving it. And I've also got good memories of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Of course, that's kid lit and I'm wayyyyyy past that, right?

Well, thanks to the Waterstone's promotion of "books that will change your life" I had an excuse to go back to childhood and read a Roald Dahl book that I'd missed when younger.

Matilda was fun and amusing and a quick read (and a nice change from the depressing and slow book that preceded it).

Worth all the teasing I got from E and A while reading it too...
