I saw it at random in Borders, and fell in love with the description on the back. So I spent my entire allowance (at the time. It's grown so much more since then) on it, and didn't regret it a second.

Nathaniel had been going on about them for ages, and when the third came out, he finally persuaded me to borrow them off him and read them. So I did. (And, incidently, finished the third book before he'd finished the second. ^_^ )

Barty is a cool character, Maybe it's best the it's named after him and not Nathaniel

I bought the first book last September because I had some spare cash and it was only a few bucks. I got hooked and soon got the next one.

I looked at it a couple times, (we had it in our basement) then I started it and LOVED it!!

I was looking through books at Barnes and Noble a few years ago and saw it. I began reading it on October 19, 2003(yes, I have the exact date. we had to record what we read in my English class). I finished it in about a week and eargerly awaited the next two books.
