Haha I love em!

Looks like we’re reading A Basket of Flowers by Christoph von Schmid! 90% of people voted for it. We also didn’t really get many requests to shorten or lengthen the time span to read it, so we’ll stick to a month. Discussions will start August 15th.

Have fun!

@freed_and_redeemed @savannah_grace2009 I have a Chase scene for you

@whalekeeper @loopylin @grcr @theducktator @esther-c @kielah-h @theshadow @ellette-giselle @anyone

I have a really sweet but sad Chase scene. For context, this is after Chase’s last battle with Narsa Jeptune.

oh, and beware, I’ve barely edited this. Criticism welcome 🙂

@theducktator

So you’re good with the skirt?

@theducktator

No, not a practice tutu, unless she was rehearsing a performance. It would be a satin-like wrap skirt.

@theducktator

Eldred and Rosalind are at the cabins too.

@theducktator

Callum and Evelyn are at the cabins

Ugh, my reply didn’t load. grrrrrr,

I was wondering if I could give Crystal a skirt with her tights? like a ballet one. (professionals use them. My mom was a professional dancer and an owner of a dance company, and I’ve done ballet a few years myself) anyhow, I dislike outlining girl’s legs like that, and would really prefer…[Read more]

I think it should be done however enhances your reading experience, but I prefer to look at the map for a while appreciate the art a little, then hope it will help my mental geography during the book but really knowing that when I look back at it later I was completely off…

@theducktator

I usually don’t look at the maps, but I do like having them. There have been some books lacking them, and that makes it confusing to look at where everything is. In the series I am currently reading, I have referenced the map only a few times. I just finished book three. I am more likely to look at a map if it has some illustrations…[Read more]

@theducktator

I look at it briefly in the beginning and sometimes go back to look at it. It honestly just depends. Like, I love the maps in the Wingfeather Saga, but in some other books, I don’t enjoy looking at the maps as much, lol.

@theducktator

I tend to study a map after or during the first book, and then I will reference it again if ai gets confused with the author’s directions. However, I tend to modify maps in my head to fit my own impression of the fantasy world, so after the third or so book I rarely if ever look at the map.

@theducktator

I use them for occasional reference, but not all the time. If I’m confused about locations I will check the map, though, and I do often find it helpful, even if you just glance at it to get a general idea of where things are.

@theducktator

haha! This is crazy! OK, I look at maps when battles are described so that I can get a picture of the strategy, and I sometimes look for traveling, but not much. My brother pours over them though. I likes to memorize the map and then constantly returns to it. I think the quote from Prince Caspian would be appropriate…[Read more]

Congratulations everyone!

Yeah, when I saw GRCR I thought, “Game over, that’s the winner” lol. It was an amazing rendition of him!! Great job!!

Who would like to submit the next description?

I would unless someone else is going…[Read more]

@theducktator

I like to get to know it before starting the book, then I occasionally reference it during reading, but don’t have to.

@theducktator

lolol 😂 this is a funny topic

It kinda depends on the book, but a majority of the time I take a long look at the map before I start reading, and then after that I don’t really reference it.
I will look at it if I’m confused, though… 😄😄
