I don't know you quote, True.

What was the quote?
(May 27, 2015 - 2:24 pm)
I've definitely seen this book before. It's driving me nuts that I can't think of the title!!!!!

Sorry to be late! I couldn't get on yesterday. So - the quote was from S.E. Hinton's The Outsiders ( a book I absolutely love.) The reader's level might be a bit old compared to the age range in CB, so I guess I should have chosen better, but I couldn't resist.
All right, new quote. Let's see . . .
“If you are going to live in a house made of candy, don't move
next door to a couple of obese kids. A lot of these fairy-tale
characters are missing common sense.”
Anyone know?

It isn't from any The Land of Stories books is it? I vaguely remember reading those...
(May 29, 2015 - 10:19 am)
Yes, it is from one of the books; the first one. Your turn!

Hmmmm.... I wanted to post one from The Secret Life of Bees... but that might be above the age level around here.
Here is my quote:
It was monday, and they walked on a tightrope to the sun.
I will give you a hint if you cannot guess.

Is it The Book Thief?
I only know that because I've heard it a lot. I never actually read the book.
(June 1, 2015 - 6:13 pm)
Yes! The Book Thief. Your turn Butterfly!

'At the workshop cave, he worked on his powder some more. Finally he thought it ws ready.'

Hmmm... I am not sure if I have read this book.
(June 3, 2015 - 8:34 am)
All right, since no one's guessing, I'll answer. I swear - Butterfly didn't tell me the answer, and I did purpously wait a few days to see if anyone else knew it.
The bok is Cinderellis and the Glass Hill by Gail Carson Levine. (And yes, it did take me more than a while to figure that one out.)
New quote:
"I don't understand it any more than you do, but one thing I've learned is that you don't have to understand things for them to be."
(June 5, 2015 - 5:21 pm)
I know this! I know this! It's on the tip of my tongue! BUT WHAT IS IT?!?!?! I recognize the quote, but I have absolutely no idea where I might have read it.

I don't see how her being cyborg is relevant.

Oh oh oh oh either Scarlet or Cress in Lunar Chronicles!
