THEOLOGY/MESSAGE

~ Any theological concerns for the story?

I don’t think so.

~ What would you say my world view was?

Christian? XD. (Again, I don’t really know what kind of answer you want here.)

~ What would you say was the message of the story?

God will give us strength when we are weak and help us have the courage to stand up for Him.

STORYLINE

~ Was the plot solid and engaging?

~ Did the pacing feel consistent throughout the book? If not, where did it lag or feel dull?

I feel like these two kind of go together. The pacing, I felt, was not very consistent. Sometimes we would be skipping over weeks or months, sometimes we would get slow, slice-of-life scenes, and sometimes we…[Read more]

I’m flexible, so whenever everyone else is ready to read the next book is fine with me. And is it about Leon and Julian?

K, here’s the characters section.
CHARACTERS

~Which character(s) did you find the most compelling/relatable/believable and why?

Joseph, because he’s the main. 🤪 But no, really, we got to see all his inner…[Read more]

I WAS LITERALLY ON THE ILLUSTRATION QUESTION 😣

@ellette-giselle

I was so, so close to finishing your questions, and then a bee came over by me, and I picked up my laptop and ran away (lol.)

But then I accidentally hit the screen somehow and I CLOSED THE LINK!!!

Augggghhhh. I cannot believe that just happened. Now I have to write them all out AGAIN. So this might take a while.

@ellette-giselle

AHHH ELLETTE YOU SAVED THEM!!!

AND IT’S DONE!! CONGRATULATIONS!! (I know this is a later draft, but still xD)

Biggest thing I noticed, is that, in the end where Joseph and Amelia are talking, some of the things that they say, “I’m so glad that… etc.” seemed a little bit like info-dumping. It’s good for us to have all that in…[Read more]

Sorry, didn’t get tagged! 😒

That does sound like fun! We always stay up till midnight too—last night we had a bunch of neighbor kids over, so we watched some YouTube videos and then played some games until midnight. I don’t think I’ve made any resolutions… but we’ll see, there’s still time.

@ellette-giselle

Yeah, we didn’t either, cuz we’re going on a trip today so we didn’t want to be tired.

Also, I’m mildly jealous that you consider waking up at 6 to be ‘sleeping in’, lol 😅

@ellette-giselle

Happy new year!

Did you stay up til midnight?

Happy New Year! It’s 2025!!

Happy Almost New Year! What are you guys up to?

@keilah-h

Aww, your relationship with your brother sounds so sweet.

@elishavet-pidyon

Same—we played with our stuffed animals too. We had maybe thirty of them between us, and they all belonged to a “pack” with an alpha, and a beta, etc. (Me and my sister were Erin Hunter fans.) We acted out whole storylines—probably enough to fill a novel xD.

@ellette-giselle

Wow, that’s really cool. Definitely keep them in then.

@ellette-giselle

Wait, you wrote the hymns? I thought you had just pasted them in. 😳

(There’s a lot of hymns I’m not familiar with, since we don’t normally sing them at my church.)

@ellette-giselle

I finished! (And the art for the cover is really cool.) I gave answering those questions a shot, even though you might be past the point of feedback, I figured you might want to hear what I thought.

Were the characters believable?

For the most part, yes. At times, there was somewhat stilted (slightly forced seeming, or maybe a…[Read more]

I just realized I can’t actually flip my hair because I have a bob cut. 😐

@rae

Yeah, sEriouslyyyy… *flips hair*

@ellette-giselle

*High fives*

@rae

I second what everyone else is saying :]

@grcr

I liked it—although it has been fuel for my dislike of the word soup.

What?? You don’t like the word soup?? I love love love the word soup, you must be absolutely out of your mind, girl. 😝 You like the food though, right?

@ellette-giselle

I read Narnia, but other then that I read mostly fiction set in our world or a fantasy world that was…
