@Claire H.: The Phantom Tollbooth. I love that book.
(May 3, 2012 - 5:32 pm)
Oh, I know that one. It's The Phantom Tollbooth. I didn't like that book that much. The name makes it sound a lot more interesting than it really is.

NOOOO HOW COULD YOU?
TPT is one of the best books out there! Maybe it's because I'm biased, but you really have to admire how NJuster does things. It's amazing.

I don't know, the book was kind of boring to me. It does have some cool ideas, but it wasn't the kind of writing I like.
(May 27, 2012 - 2:36 pm)
Woot! for everybody here.
I am currently feeling very good about myself because I recognized the past few quotes, and this has hardly ever happened to me before.
Also, my drama class put on a play of The Phantom Tollbooth, and I was Tock!
(I'm sure somebody has followed up this with "The Phantom Tollbooth", but it was said by Alec Bings, to Milo on the subject of growing towards the ground rather than to the sky, in the Forest of Perspective, on the way to Digitopolis, on page 105. For good measure.)
Chickuu says zeke. Nooo don't rename yourself Chicky!

Macon--
Ranger's Apprentice?
(May 4, 2012 - 7:58 am)
Nope. Keep guessing.
Ranger's Apprentice was a good guess, though. I like those books. :)

I will give you one that's so hard your brains will hurt.
"The canning jar-I forgot it again, Chuck. I just don't think I'll ever get it safely to Mr. Bass with the Basidium air in it."
(May 15, 2012 - 12:50 pm)
No idea. But I have one.
"How exciting! What does she do? Eat people? Push people out of windows? Throw knives?"
"All of the above, I believe."
The judge clapped like a happy child. "It's nice not to feel so alone."
Do you know what this is?
(May 21, 2012 - 5:59 pm)
Umm... The Last Dragon? No, that can't be right.
(May 24, 2012 - 11:25 am)
@Tiffany:
No. That's not it. I didn't really know, but the series is pretty popular...I don't know if I've ever read The Last Dragon. I don't know, though, 'cause I got in a pretty surious dragon themed book phase.

Do you want me to tell you? I'll give you a synonym title:
Fantastic Journey to the Cloud Celestial Being.
(May 24, 2012 - 3:23 pm)
I still have no idea. Apparently I'm not very diverse in what I read.........
(May 24, 2012 - 4:33 pm)
Don't worry, barely anyone has read it. Hint: it's by Eleanor Cameron. Another hint, the words in bold are very important. "The canning jar-I forgot it again, Chuck. I just don't think I'll ever get it safely to Mr. Bass with the Basidium air in it."
(May 25, 2012 - 8:39 am)
I looked it up on google, because I have no idea. If you want to keep guessing, don't read any farther! It's called Time and Mr. Bass. ( I think)
Sir Spammy of Spamalot says iami. You are sure that's what its called Spammy?
