hey i read melina marchettas latest book =on the jellicoe road= its awesome and intense and i think it could just be my favourite marchetta book so what do you think
looking for alibrandi
saving francescha or
on the jellicoe road?
also which love interest/heroe is the best in your opinion
jacob
will
or jonah?
'yeah you bleed just to know you're alive'
I just finished reading it too and you're right, it is awesome, but I don't think I can pick a favourite out of the three.
Have to say Jonah, although the military obsession is a bit odd :)
I'm v. excited to find others woh have read on the jellicoe road. i absolutely love it and am in love with jonah. and jude. and everyone. I think it is my favourite of Melina's books.
come with me and you'll be in a world of pure imagination
awesome well this one made me cry (i cry at movies too i'm a sook :p)
so i guess its my favourite marchetta book, so far
i want more of them!!!
-you bleed just to know your alive-
Yeah I loved "On The Jellicoe Road". It was awesome. I also loved "Looking For Alibrandi". I haven't read "Saving Francessca" yet but my friends really liked it. I reckon Jacob and Jonah are very different and you can't really compare them. They are both awesome.
I can't keep holding on to what you got when all you got is hurt...
I love 'On The Jellicoe Road'. It's my favourite Marchetta book so far. I love Griggs and think On The Jellicoe Road is really intense and a really good read. It's one of my favourite books ever! I'd have to say I like Jonah better. But I still like Jacob. :)
shareOn the jellicoe road isn't just my fave marlena marchetta book, its also my fave book in total.
I love evrything about it and my fave guy from all 3 marlena marchetta books is definitely Jonah.
I like on the jellicoe road the best, then saving francesca then looking for alibrandi is close behind.
Hold my hand or I might disappear.
T~O !! Jacob Black respect.
where's the santangelo love??? there are wonderful things about jacob, will and jonah, but santangelo!!
:D
If you love Jesus Christ and are 100% proud of it copy this and make your signature!
hahaha true, he is pretty great :D

T~O #14!! Jacob Black respect.
Jacobism.
I've tried to get into on the jellicoe road twice now and can't seem to. the first time i managed a chapter and the second about 50 pages...but it just doesn't grab me
it really annoys me because i love the way melina writes and i feel like i'm missing out on a great story!! yet still, i just can't find the attention span to read it!

-i can't believe it! they f-!#ing forgot my birthday!-

hey gracie, caould i ask where you read about melina starting work on a script for the jellicoe road? that would be...unbeleivably amazing :)

on the jellicoe road is my favourite book of all times.
i read it 5 times in 3 days, and i re-read it about once every 3 months. (i try not to read it too often because it takes me a while to get into a book afterwards)
definitely jonah, i dislike jocob very much and will is sweet but i love the intensity of jonah.
this is the link hey sorry it took a while for me to check up on the thread

Jellicoe is hands down my favourite of the three novels. I was totally obsessed with it while reading it, and couldn't stop thinking about it for weeks after.
And I have to say my favourite "hero" of the three options you gave would have to be Jonah.
Gotta say though, my favourite male character in all of the books is Jude.
Jonah definatly nd Jellicoe Rd was the first 1 i read out of the 3 and it is now my fav book eva!!!
Jellicoe Rd definatly my favourite and Saving Francesca lest fav out of the 3
i absolutely loved this book, i think it would make a great movie.
sharei agree it would make a great movie
but i think i would prefer a mini series (two parts)
if its longer they won't leave out any of my favourite scenes to keep it short
