I-Pin eyes

[afuna]

It has taken me up to chapter 42 to break the habit of thinking that I-Pin's cheek-things are her eyes.

Spent the day reading by Homecoming by Cynthia Voight, novel about four kids who were abandoned by their mom at a mall one day, and their search for home. Love these kinds of stories about resourceful kids; I was worried it might get angsty or wallow-y, given the subject matter but it's not.

hahaha! I'm the same with images. Some of them are just weird. :)

I love Homecoming and Dicey's Song. You're right, it's about being resourceful, not wallow-y.

Oh yay! I have Dicey's Song, but the tone of the blurbs on the cover (of that and the other books in the Tillerman series) made me feel that it could be more angsty than Homecoming. I'm less nervous about starting Dicey's Song now :-)

There are some really sad parts, but Dicey is Dicey. She's a pragmatist. :)

Seventeen Against the Dealer is grim, though. And A Solitary Blue *is* angsty and wallow-y, because it's not Dicey.

Oh dear. I have *peeks* Hmmm I think I have Dicey's Song and also Wings of a Falcon (which is not related to anything but is by the same author).
