| Blog Harbor Challenge" Books Day 27 Prompt: Books are the sweet escape from reality and one of the cheapest ways to travel. If you could take the train to your favorite fictional world, what would it be? What would you do once you get there? This is a difficult prompt given the sheer number of possibilities! There is something completely appealing about walking through a wardrobe into Narnia. When not under tyrannical and icy rule, it is a land with an impressive landscape the features mountains and rivers, lush valleys and rolling hills. It seems to be perpetually Spring. It is a magical place with talking animals and fantastical beings. Great, right? Then, you consider Hogwarts with its floating candles and resident ghosts. What could be more of an escape then a magical school for aspiring wizards? Or Oz, with its blazing emerald-colored buildings, yellow brick roads and fields of poppy? Even with the occasional horde of flying monkeys, who would turn up the chance to visit such a place? For me though, the land that most captured my fantasy as a child would still draw the adult me there in a heartbeat. It is a place of secret hideouts, mountains dotted with teepees, and mermaid-filled lagoons. The night sky is always filled with the stars and the shadow of a flying pirate ship creeps across the lovely scenery below. You get there by dousing yourself in fairy dust and thinking happy thoughts. Had I the chance, it would be a ticket to Neverland I would book over them all. |
| Blog Harbor Challenge Day 26 Prompt: Sometimes, when we read, we run into characters who have the same or similar personalities as ours. If you could relate to one book character, who would it be and why? Tell us also who is the author and what is the book all about. I am easily a modern day Alice in Wonderland, driven by my curiosity, to follow bouncing white rabbits into dark holes. I frequently give myself very good advice "but seldom ever follow it". I harbor a child-like belief in "impossible things". I love that Alice is smart, that she reasons with herself but also readily walks into the mystery of world around her. She is grounded but at the same time, open to the possibilities. She is both a dreamer and a thinker and I adore that about her. |
