Also Out of my Mind slapped!

Omg I read The Lottery and another really fucked up but amazing short story (Leg of Lamb I think it was called?) in 7th grade, same with Jekyll and Hyde!

Spoiler even though I think we've probably all read it
That's my favorite. It was great

Was it the one where she kills her husband with the leg of lamb?

After comparing lyres with Dirk, it has come to my attention that mine is of better quality (hollow mahogany instead of his soft rosewood), but is left-handed
Not that I'm complaining about that. I'm ambidextrous, so playing with my left isn't the problem
The problem is that I have no idea how I managed to get a fucking left-handed lyre

I want to make a Princess Bride joke relating to that but I'm blanking on what to say
Just imagine that I make a "I am not left handed" joke and it's funny and we all laugh

Yep!

Lamb to the Slaughter I'm pretty sure

I fucking hate my life.
Why can't I have a peaceful summer?
Why can't I just write?
Why does my mom have to force me to do shit?
Why does she have to fucking threaten the one thing that's ACTUALLY important to me just t force me to do things her way?
Why?????
Why did she have to ruin my good day with anxiety….
Why am I crying…
I don't want a fucking job.
I don't want to have to walk my sisters around every day.
I don't want to have to become the household cinderella. (Exaggeration, but also kinda not)
I don't want to have to do more school over the summer.
I don't want to have to leave highschool because of stupid fucking covid.
I don't want to have to wonder whether or not I'll be able to do cadets or not in the fall.
I don't want to have to fucking wonder if I'll ever be able to speak honestly and directly with my school friends. Or any of my friends for that matter.
I don't want this.

If we're talking about short stories HOW HAS NO ONE MENTIONED GIFT OF THE MAGI THAT ONE REALLY SCREWED WITH MY MIND IN SIXTH GRADE

Also, late as always but Jyn you have read soooo many books that I like. LUNAR CHRONICLES IS LIFE OF COURSE but I recently finished HP for the first time (i know, i know, i'm late to the party) and I started Red Queen & Divergent last year. I never finished either series, idk why.

Me: learning to play the intro to "For the Dancing and the Dreaming"
My brother, poking his head into my room: You should play louder. I wanna hear.

YES I REMEMBER THAT ONE!

School started me off with Darren Shan when I was 9. Never read Harry Potter (much to my mum’s dismay), read the HG books when I was 11?
Read the Divergent books when they came out, don’t remember how old I was.
Started reading the DarkHunter series when I was 13 (because my reading age has always been higher than my actual age), and now here I am with various collections that will mess with the mind and cause you to go through a rollercoaster of emotions that you never even expected 🤷🏻

Similar to Jyn, my favorite book came from school. My school had this thing called Battle of the Books where you had to read a bunch of books and then answer super-obscure questions about them. This is where I found the masterpiece that is Cinder.

Ik im late but my school did this in 4th grade too! My team ended up winning third place which we were really proud of.

The Lottery is definitely messed up but it was really good! Also, I remember reading the lamb one when I was pretty young and it freaked me out. It's interesting that it was written by Roald Dahl because its really different from the stories he's known for.

WE DID THE "READER'S THEATER" VERSION AND WE WEREN'T ALLOWED TO READ IT AHEAD OF TIME (we only knew our roles) AND LIKE THE ENTIRE CLASS AUDIBLY GASPED AT THE END

I have a list of stuff to do and instead I have been spending my days watching Supernatural and making a random gift for a friend and hundreds of stickers and working on Photoshop

The Giver is honestly one of my all-time favorite books.

Why have I never read this if it's so good.

I read divergent in fifth grade

I finished LotR at nine.

Things can be good without you knowing about it

I finished Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows in an Arby's parking lot at 9 PM.

Let's be real though. Roald Dahl was a weird dude and no one can deny that.
