I'll settle for having a small group of friends. That's better to me than just having a bunch of people see me and have mixed feelings. Maybe your sister is finding that out.
[With Luz it had been the reverse, so having people in this world that cared about her definitely mattered more to her than being liked as a sort of status person].
Me too! Turned out to be a pretty good chance meeting!
[Luz, again, very aware of that defense mechanism herself. All too much, really].
Of course it can, its books! Can't think of anything more engaging than something that takes you to a different place, even for a little while! It's why we read to begin with!
Ugh. So dumb. If I WANTED an edgy reinterpreted version of Alice, I'd just play the American Mcgee games! At least THAT Alice looked and sounded like she was trying to act, and that was a video game!
And you get snacks out of the deal, so win win!
I can hope, right? In the meantime, I STILL have a lot on my plate!
