The Screewtape Letters
Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. That novel (my Eng. teacher wants my class to books "novels") was one of the best I've read in a long time (What makes a novel a novel?). Very clever and extremely interesting concepts I've never though of before (Is LotR a novel?). Very funny idea with the letters and names and Screwtape Proposes a Toast was very insightful (It was included at the back of the novel).

Screwtape
My parents got me that for Christmas two or three years ago. I haven't read it yet as it seemed confusing to me when I first picked it up, but I think I might read it after I finish LOTR and before I start Redwall.

I read that book last year and liked it. It gets confusing at times, but the general concepts were easy to understand. I liked the way the chapters were named.
