OMG, The Pillars of Earth is like the most accomplished novel I've ever read. It has all, terrific characters, twisty plot, terrific world-building! *_*
...and something happened in every page... No dull part! I LOVED IT

Also, oh, I never thought about reading that book in English. Awesome idea.
SOOOO GOOOOOD!

but I felt that, ever if these days I only read stuff that goes on my e-reader, that book deserved a place on my personal library.
I agree... There are books that NEED to be shown!!! :D

As for Eddie and Hayley, they were terrific in the miniseries, yes! *_* But I do have a special weakness for Hayley. (And I find it kind of unfair how Eddie went on to become a Hollywood leading man and get an Oscar while she's stuck doing tv stuff like this, I've always thought she was the more talented of the two...)
She's amazingly talented I agree but I have to say I'm happy she's a TV actress because it means we can see her more often! :D And OMGYES!!! Conviction is TOTALLY in my list of new shows and JUST OFR HER!!! It's probably going to be extremely good but I'm jumping right into it because of her!!! How AWESOME is that she got a lead role so quickly after Agent Carter? She's amazing!!!
