electrice : not a single book
JalenV: Asked for and got a paperback set as one of my high school graduation presents (1972). I admit it's The Fellowship of the Ring that I have reread most often.

amanda4242: Devoured this in one sitting.

Aprill: I would read this one again.

electrice : read, didn't like it
JalenV: Got a lot of paperback copies of Verne books when I was a schoolgirl. I was particularly interested in this one because I so enjoyed the 1967 cartoon series.
aekd: no interest
ahef1963: Was a very seminal book in my literary upbringing. Going to Iceland next month to see Snaefellnes for myself.
