I usually think movie squeals fall flat from the first movies, but this one was pretty amazing. You should see the second one. You might be surprised by some of the stuff that happens. I won't spoil anymore. :)<br />I'm just happy there's someone else out there who likes the movies.

The plotting of HTTYD (at least the first movie, which is the only one I've seen so far) is quite good for being a kid's movie, and even the characters aren't all as flat as you'd expect. Toothless is also adorable and it helps that he's a lot like my sister's cat :). And, though romance makes me snarky and I especially don't care for teen romances, Hiccstrid isn't terribly aggravating. <br /><br />https://ofdreamsandswords.wordpress.comSophia Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10393680730064003675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024721400572472213.post-27541669872618080522017-05-14T22:38:34.016-05:002017-05-14T22:38:34.016-05:00This site is amazing.

So hard to say...but between the Lord of the Rings, Chronicles of Prydain, and Harry Potter, I can kind of figure out what it is that draws me into a book/series and makes me love it. It's the depth. The meaning behind everything, the complexity of the plot, the vividness of the world--J. K. Rowling spent years planning the Harry Potter series. If you've ever read The Silmarillion, you know Tolkien had literally the entire history of Middle Earth plotted out. And by the way Lloyd Alexander tied everything up in the end, it's obvious he put a lot of thought into his storyworld, plot, and even characters. That kind of depth (and dedication :) ) is what I'm hoping to achieve someday.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024721400572472213.post-54099952206469652772017-05-14T09:29:29.190-05:002017-05-14T09:29:29.190-05:00I love that most of us are Christians on this blog...I love that most of us are Christians on this blog, it's so inspiring to see other teen writers who have the same passions that I do! :D love y'all!<br />God bless<br />KeilahKeilahhttp://keilah.canoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024721400572472213.post-1109570047601802752017-05-14T09:28:40.485-05:002017-05-14T09:28:40.485-05:00Lol!

The thing that really captured me about it wasn't the depth of Tolkien's worlds or languages (though they are both brilliant), but the depth of his characters and his themes. I was drawn to the immense faith they have, the love and friendship, the hope and courage amidst the darkness...it appealed to me on an emotional level and it is so much more than entertainment. Its such a beautiful story, and Tolkien's faith shines out in it brilliantly.

I love this book because Mrs. McGee describes the feelings of the main character, Thalli in a way that everyone can relate to. The plot of the book has many twists that kept me engaged and therefore I couldn't even put it down! I love how she portrayed who God was, and what evil was. Overall, I loved this book (and the rest of the trilogy).<br /><br />YAY YOU FINISHED YOUR BOOK!
