View original postShe got all the way through Harry Potter with any real issues but she can be sensitive and about weird things. Being nine she is fairly narcissistic and it only worries her when bad things are happening the people characters she identifies with but we do like avoid over the top violence. She is fairly good at self censoring and will skip parts that make her uncomfortable, things like the basaltic and kissing.
Basaltic?
What?
No, but seriously. You're not going to read them anyway, so I don't need to worry about spoilers: by the time the heroine's little sister died horribly in a fire bombing at the hands of the heroine's supposed allies, even I was nauseated. That third book is really something, and not in a good way.
View original postThe Inkheart books look interesting. I will have to find someone to recommend them to her. Dad is not allowed to have an opinion on clothes or books.
That must be inconvenient.
Though I suppose looking back, my parents didn't rank too high on my list of preferred sources of recommendations at that age, either.
What are people reading in December?

Turns out what I read was only a short story in the original Arsene Lupin book, not that one.
