1) I used to enjoy pictures in my early elementary years but now when I older, of 14 I now mostly prefer books with lot of words and less pictures! 2) Uh no? What is it? 3) Hehe, Prince Geric from "Goose Girl" I always daydream of Prince Geric and I being together but he's taken by Anidori! 4) Idk yet... 5) I arrange my books by their genres like on very top of my mini library in my room are horses books, on second shelf, random books by its genres, 3rd shelf is history books, then finally with fourth and bottom shelf are Deaf books and its culture and history... tysm for a book quiz!About 16 hours agovictoria_wise replied to a comment in

About 18 hours agozarkinpants's book review was featured in Walk Two Moons.
First, I should introduce the main character, Salamanca Tree Hiddle, better known as Sal, who has the pack her bags and move to Ohio. She leaves her farm in Bybanks, a fictional small town in Kentucky, and travels to Euclid, which not only is a real place, it is the birthplace of the author. But that was a year ago, and in the present, she is in the car with her two grandparents, who are driving her all the way to Lewiston, Idaho, where her mother is. As they're driving, Sal tells a story that happened to her when she first moved to Euclid. It concerns a strange girl named Phoebe Winterbottom, a mysterious young man, and has quite a few surprising twists... As the book unfolds, more and more details about Sal's past are revealed. This book alternates, with Sal revealing more of her story, and strange things happening to her grandparents. All in all, there were a few key details that could either make you enjoy it or ruin it for you. There's the whole thing about having a story behind another story, as Sal puts it, and the whole other thing about some things being unclear and potentially confusing until later. Then there are the two weird grandparents and Sal, Gramps, and Gram's weird rural way of speaking. For me, the whole idea of having two stories worked out in the end, and I liked the eccentric habits of her grandparents, but I could see why some people would be a little confused. Additionally, the idea of traveling across the US and going to all these small towns was cool, too. I enjoyed how it had a fair amount of humor, and was mostly very engaging and drew me in from the first chapter. If you like somewhat old-fashioned realistic fiction, like some of Kate DiCamillo's stories, you'll like it too. You might even have a "gol-dang" time, as Gramps puts it.About 21 hours agozarkinpants added a book review.
