I was a voracious reader as a child but nothing else (with the exception of Roald Dahl and Beverly Cleary) formed my tastes as much as Norton Justerโs The Phantom Tollbooth. whimsical, clever, delightful, funny, playful, and in love with learning, language, and curiosity.
not only did this series get me into reading, it also made a huge history nerd out of me. perfect combo of magic, arthurian legend, adventure and historical fiction, with true facts and events woven in
Not in a mentally ill way but in a way thatโs refreshing like the New Year or a tall glass of ice water. Grow your hair out long then just fuckin shave it all off. Let go
