  1. What’s the name of your current read?
  2. Go to page 34 in your book or 34% in your eBook and share a couple of sentences.
  3. Would you like to live in the world that exists within your book? Why or why not?

  1. The Singer of All Songs
  2. Calwyn felt suddenly very solemn and serious. Usually during lessons and lectures she felt only a fierce desire to be elsewhere or an irresistible urge to fidget, but now she sat as still as a statue, sensing that what Marna was about to tell her was more important, and certainly more interesting, than herb lore or weaving patterns.
  3. I think I might, but only if I could be just a regular little background character doing my own thing, just enjoying my magic, while they went on the dangerous adventures.

  1. Library of Souls (Miss Peregrine’s Peculiar Children, book 3) by Ransom Riggs
  2. If she let it feel everything, she’d be wrecked. So she had to tame it, shush it, shut it up. Float the worst pains off to an island that was quickly filling with them, where she would go to live one day.
  3. Who knows, maybe I already do….

  1. The Tale of Oriel (Tales of the Kingdom book 3, previously published as ‘The Wings of a Falcon’)
  2. He held the whip that and made those marks, and drawn that blood, and he was ashamed. He held the whip that could make more marks on the flesh of Nikol’s back. While Nikol begged.
  3. Not in Oriel’s book! No way! I don’t want any of Oriel’s adventures, not at all. He works so hard to find a place they can be safe and free, not have to hurt anyone or be hurt themselves, but this is not an easy task outside of The Kingdom, and I want no part of it.

  2. What he was doing, creeping through the world like a thief – where he was going to, in secrecy – what he might be fleeing from – those questions also she didn’t know the answer to. But she did know that only the Lords went beardless.
  3. Ha! I like the Kingdom, but I wouldn’t live in any of the places they travel to in this book, not on your life.

  1. The Tale of Gwyn (Tales of the Kingdom, book 1; previously published as ‘Jackaroo’)
  2. Behind the mask Jackaroo wore, there could be a face of bone, its flesh long since eaten away. Jackaroo could fight as a trained soldier, with swords and shield; he could ride a horse like a Lord; and he had the knowledge of letters which only the Lords held.
  3. Nah, I really like technology and indoor plumbing. Okay, but seriously, I might consider living in the Kingdom universe. It’s got pretty much the same problems as modern day America, but it the Kingdom I could disappear to a farm and be anyone, maybe stay out of all the awful crap.
