DragonQuest

I finished it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is soooo very wonderful. there is so much change in it. So many exciting things. I completely recommend it.

Bella at Midnight

As I waited for the DragonQuest, (the next after DragonSpell) I read Bella at Midnight. I have read it once before and I really like it so I read it again. It is a wonderful story and is one that I recommend.
It is by Diane Stanley.

I'm done with Dragonspell.

I have been done with it for a few weeks now. It is a great book and I found out that is has at least 4 books in the series so I am getting the next one. When I'm done with next, I will tell you all about it.

And by the way, I recommend this book.

The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Rings

Gil-galad was an Elven-king.
Of him the harpers sadly sing:
the last whose realm was fair and free
between the Mountains and the sea.
His sword was long, his lance was keen,
his shining helm afar was seen;
the countless stars of heaven's field
were mirrored in his silver shield.

But long ago he rode away,
and where he dwelleth none can say;
for into darkness fell his star
in Mordor where the shadows are.

Ella Enchanted

That fool of a fairy Lucinda did not intend to lay a curse on me. She meant to bestow a gift. When I cried inconsolably through my first hour of life, my tears were her inspiration. Shaking her head sympathetically at mother, the fairy touched my nose.
"My gift is obedience. Ella will always be obedient. Now stop crying, child."
I stopped.

This is how the story starts. I love this book, it is one of my favorites! Gail Carson Levine did such great job at writing this. I've listened to it on tape at least ten times and read it twice I believe, that I know the first page by heart and I once knew the whole last chapter and epilogue. Speaking of the epilogue, I love the way it ends.
And so, with laughter and love, we lived happily ever after.

From, The Final Storm

Adventures are
funny things.
Many are merely happy
accidents-
a single spark that ignites
an unexpected chain of events.
But some adventures are meant
for you and you alone.
And whether you want them or not,
they seek you out of a great crowd and
take you somewhere
you never thought you'd go.
Often, these unlooked-for adventures
require a sacrifice too great
to imagine.
