Lorraine: Firstly, Segue Magic it is! I think that calls for a dance party!

Secondly, I realized I talk very little about why I love the Chronicles of Narnia series, though I do have about 20 minutes of cut material about how much Lucy Penvensie rocks, the importance of reading in the publishing order, and how much the secondary characters add to the series. So, you know, I have reasons, I promise!

Books Mentioned: The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis, The Hunger Games trilogy by Suzanne Collins, The Witch of Blackbird Pond by Elizabeth George Speare, Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling, His Dark Materials by Phillip Pullman, Bridge to Terabithia by Kathrine Paterson and The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein.

Books Cut For Time: I Never Promised You a Rose Garden by Joanne Greenberg, A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness.

Things I Will Work on For Next Time: Making eye contact with the camera, connecting my trains of thought.

See you then!

I'm a 30-something south Floridan who loves the beach but cannot swim. Such is my life, full of small contradictions and little trivialities. My main life goals are never to take life too seriously, but to do everything I attempt seriously well. After that, my life goals devolve into things like not wearing pants and eating all of the Zebra Cakes in the world. THE WORLD.
