Callie’s comments from the The Infinite Reader group.

yeah it was just so random...

yeah i agree saying haha when nothing is funny gets kinda old.

yes i agree, and i thought Johnny Depp was absolutely perfect as the mad hatter

haha OHHHHH you broke a rule!!!!! jk

i liked how the new version had a story line with a plot and conflicts, even though that makes it more unlike the book

haha i am so confused!!!!! jk

haha another rule is we have to start all our posts with haha. jk.
but thank you Hope, that just came to me spur of the moment and I thought it was quite profound. (kidding again)
and yes I agree, no getting high, even if you do need some help writing your book

no i haven't read it. it looks really good. thanks for the suggestion!!! :)

nope i think that's a great idea.

i like the cartoon one although if they did it exactly like the book it would be better. i haven't seen the new one, but i'd really like to

well i watched it last night, and it was really pretty good, although scary. I thought it was interesting how they added a plot to it instead of just being lost in wonderland.

YOU ARE NOT EXPECTED TO READ ALL THIS:
I am Callie. I used to read a ton, but lately I have not found the time. However, when I do pick up a book, I usually get pretty into it and don't put it down until I'm done. I love mysteries and suspense. My absolute favorites are LDS romance suspense novels, which I have found out there are quite a few of. My favorite book is Alice in Wonderland, but that is one of the few classics I have read (if its a classic). I tend to like more modern books, but I am willing to give classics a try. I also like to write, but usually, I only write the first few paragraphs and then never pick it up again.
That's all :)

haha well he was a genius whether he was high or not. Just because he was high doesn't mean he could have the talent to write such an amazing book. He had that talent beforehand and being high just gave him some inspiration ;)

kay cool. well i am not the boss here, but i personally think it would be good if we said "try to get to chapter _ this week" because people have their own opinions of what "a few" means. and i do think its okay for people to get ahead or behind, but it would be good for us to try to stay about in the same place so people aren't saying stuff that happens past what others have read

is there a certain amount we are supposed to read each week? and also are we reading just Alice in Wonderland, or Through the Looking Glass as well? i will be at girls camp the week we start so i may be a little behind, but i will try ;)

yes i would suggest it very highly

well Alice in Wonderland is my favorite book, but if you want to start w/ a shorter one, that's not the one to pick. I'm good with anything though. Its good to pick books we know of, because we know they are a)not a waste of time and b)not offensive, or else we probably wouldn't suggest them. But i think it is also good to find new ones and broaden our scopes instead of just reading books that we know we like already

that sounds good to me ;)

I have absolutely no idea. But lets read something really good!
And it would be great if we could read something they have at the library or that somebody has an extra copy of...Salem Library's selection is really limited but if Payson library has more than one copy and somebody could check it out for me or something
