not a clue. Can't even remember what I intended it to say.


View original postNo, 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.

That part may not bother her to much. She won't get the implications of having the sister who she was trying to save get killed by her allies and if she was not to attached to her and it was not to graphic it won't upset her. It is odd what get her upset. In the new Alice in Wonder she didn't blink when the mouse pops out the cats eyeball with a sword but watching Super Girl she had to her eyes when the weird alien was doing mind control.

Either way they sound like something we should shelf until she is older.

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.


View original postThat 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.

It aggregates me more than it really should that she will refuse to read a book if I recommend it. Perfect strangers are great resources but one of the two humans on the planet who know her the best? I was facebook clicking off some of the books I have read and she was shocked that I had read so many, I guess it as little as read now it is hard for her to accept that I spent years burning through books as fast as she burns through them now.

It isn't just books. She wanted her mother to do her face paint for haloween despite the fact that her mom has no artistic talent and I am working on a fine arts degree.
