Book Quotes!
Okay, here's my...
Okay, here's my first book quote:
"Only two hours," she sighed. "That will be half past one; Mother will be at Cousin Ann's, the children at home will have had their dinner, and Hannah cleared all away. I have some lunch, because Mother said it would be a bad beginning to get to the brick house hungry and have Aunt Mirandy have to get me something to eat the first thing.-It's a good growing day, isn't it?"
First one to guess the book gets to post the next quote! Good luck! If no one guesses it by the 20th, I'll post another quote.

Well the person thinking it is actually Skye.

Really? Hm, then I better reread the book. It's been a while anyway.

The Penderwicks?! I've read it and I didn't recognize the quote at all!

@ Princess P
Your turn... and I will get this one!

Oh, I know when Sky thought this! I cannot believe I didn't recognize it before! Is it when the Penderwicks were at Jeffery's birthday party? Well, not at it, but after it when Dexter and Jeffery's mom (I forgot her name) were talking, dancing, and doing "what suspiciously sounded like kissing"? :-) Not sure if that's the exact quote from the book, but I put it in quotes anyways. Let's see, I'll go get a book now and type up the quote. I'll post it later!

Oh, yes, and if you can't tell, I am SUPER excited that I just guessed one! I don't think I've EVER guessed a book quote on here! :-P

Actually it was when Mrs. Tifton and Dexter took Jeffrey to have an interveiw at Pencey and to Skye it weemed like the place was under a spell because no one seemed to be around and the place was so quite and forlorn.

Okay, thanks! I knew it was something like that...:-)
(June 24, 2011 - 4:45 pm)
I hope this won't be too hard. :-)
"What is your name? the strange, toneless voice asked."
If, after a few days, no one has guessed it, I'll put another quote from the book and we'll see if you get that one.

Is it... Kingdom Keepers? Although I think we are the only two who read that series...:)

Hi, I'm new to this website. It looks really fun, though!
(June 24, 2011 - 11:58 am)
Welcome, Electra! I hope you like it here!
Analesia, no, it's not Kingdom Keepers. I don't own any of the books, so I wouldn't be able to copy a quote. I still haven't gotten to read the fourth book yet. I really want to, though!!!! And, yes, I think we are the only ones who have read it. :-)

Welcome Electra! It's always nice to have more people on the CB.
@Princess P.: That sounds familiar, but I am not sure what book it's from.
(June 24, 2011 - 11:01 pm)
Welcome Electra! Great to have you! I've always liked that name...it's always good to have more new buggies especially now that a TON of buggies have left **wipes tear**.
You've got me stumped Princess P.!
Ummm...Christina out.

Welcome Electra! I really like your name! :) I hope you have fun on this website!
Well, Princess P., that's really hard. Do you know if I've read it at all?
