do they ever stop to shit or is it just like not something that people on horseback do?

okay so i feel like the trope of: boy is mean to girl, girl loves it, needs to end. like especially in SCHOLASIC BOOKS. we need to stop normalizing that? i understand jack being an ass to katie could be part of their story/character development…but its not. there isn’t a solid, complex enough reason for this trope to be happening…idk…it’s just there bc it’s common and something that authors think is okay

this is moving along pretty quickly. there isn’t much detail with each scene. i really like miranda july’s writing, so i feel like i look for her type of scene writing in everything. but this is a good concept for a tween book, something for 12-15 y/o. it keeps my attention and has a cool concept with the woven tapestries.

bruh. i don’t remember tween books being so unrealistic. even the fantasy ones ?? i don’t know maybe i just didn’t ever really read kids books.

yeah i didn’t know this was gonna be a book for like tweens…i should have known it literally says scholastic on it. i’m just trying to amp up the amount of books i read so i guess this will be a good practice book while im waiting for liars to come in the mail.
