Here we go with the next bit!

( Who let the emu out!? WHO! WHO! WHO! )

I haz no clever introduction. . .

Chapter 6

Ugh.  We’re back in Short Takes, and Mr. Cobb is asking them to discuss ideas for their end of class projects, on the (stupid and poorly thought out) theme of “a project that furthers the cause of children’s literature.”  Seriously, that’s such a bullshit topic, especially for kids this age.  What does it ( Read more... )

. . .on second thought, go ahead and give up, Mallory.

Shout-out to  kakeochi_umai or the request!

Is it just me, or does Mallory get a bunch of titles in non-standard form?  By which I mean, I think of standard as “Sitter’s Name and the Particular WTF,” or possibly “Sitter Name’s Stupid Thing.”  But Mal gets creepster greetings (Hellloooo, Mallory!), ( Read more... )

I’m cursing myself for having gotten rid of so many of these when I moved out of my parents’ house. Once upon a time, my bookshelves were a veritable rainbow of pastel spines and Hodges’s Uncanny Valley landscapes. Now the only ones I can find are Jessi’s Wish and the clusterfuck du jour: Dawn and Too Many Sitters.

That said, this should be good ( Read more... )

Hey!  So!  How're you?  Good?  Yeah me, too.  Me, too.  I know I haven't posted anything lately.  Been... been busy with my new blog.  Nothin' big.  Just you know, just some stuff from my brain on some virtual paper.  It's located here by the way.  (It's nerdy and stuff and I'm going to link this snark there as well because I really wanted to snark ( Read more... )

Okay so this book ends exactly how you think it does.  Mostly because there's a book 101 after it, but you get it.  I have nothing else to say as there is still a bit of Lerangis' Drunken Writing Time left.

( This book was nuts. )

You guys, YOU GUYS.  I'm sure you already know, but this is the book where the shit hits that big, ole fan.  Specifically chapter 7.  Lerangis went for broke on this one.  It's like he just gave up and told Ann, "Okay, look, this is book 100.  Am I really supposed to keep these logic holes going?" and Ann was all, "Yes, Lerangis.  Now go to your ( Read more... )

So since a select few of us are almost done with out Super Secret project, I decided to do a little snark.  I was going to do this one, then that Vampire one, but then someone else started the Vampire one... Thus I went back to my original idea!  To snark #100 because it's one of the ones I got from Amazon and the cover is metallic.  It is... very ( Read more... )

Okay, I know I have a crapload of half-snarked books to get to. However, it's my birthday today - I'm 15!, I'm staying home, and I promised myself I'd get to this one.
This book doesn't actually have a dedication to a ghostie-- did Ann write these herself? I doubt it. Instead, it has a dedication to the birth of her goddaughter, Harmoni. How ( Read more... )
