A Little About My Abaratian Journey:
I first read Abarat when I was in sixth or seventh grade. I had an in with the librarian, and she gave it to me to read before she even put it on the shelves. I remember thinking the plot sounded cliché but the cover was weird so I might as well read it. It was alright. I didn’t rave about it, but I liked it enough to read the second book a year later. Unfortunately by then, I had forgotten what exactly happened in the first book, and I moved through the second in a haze, not really knowing what was going on. I didn’t think of Abarat again until halfway through my freshman year at high school. I don’t know what made me think of it all of the sudden, but I couldn’t get it out of my head until I read it again. SUCH a difference! I couldn’t get enough, I read both books in the span of 5 days, reading by cell phone light when my parents thought I was in bed. I fell in love, with the story, with the characters, (with Christopher Carrion ). I read it once more the year after, my sophomore year, and then I summarized chapter by chapter the second book for my friend who was too lazy to finish it herself last year. I push Abarat off on everyone I know, and I’ve been trying for three years straight to get my book club to read it as well. I love Abarat for everything that it is; the perfect world to escape to.
About the Forum/ Abarat in My Life Right Now:
I was on this site a little while ago under the name GorgossiumsMstrss. The story behind that is I went to make an account with the name CarrionsPrincess but found it taken, much to my dismay. I believe it was a few weeks later when I realized it was taken because I had made an account myself years before -_-. I have my moments ^^; But I don’t think I posted too much as that account, so I took over my original account again. I'm on a lot ^^; I realize that many of the other people aren’t on as much, so please just let me know if my posting on everything gets annoying. I’m not too overeager, I swear, I just go on the computer a lot, and so this site is one of the ones I frequent now too. I joined this because I think it’s amazing that there’s a community of Abarat lovers out there as well! Abarat has always been my little quirk, the ones my friends put up with but don’t really understand. As I confessed on this board a while ago, I have two Facebook kids under the app “Make a Baby” that are my ‘kids’ with Christopher Carrion. (They’re actually the avatar that I have). I also have a Sims 3 game (which I spent hours designing) which has Candy and Malingo, Finnegan and Boa, and Carrion and Motley……all living in the same house ^_^. Hilarity ensues, trust me. I love Abarat so much, and hope I always will (and that I wont get frustrated by the 20 year gaps in between books and just give up).
A Little About Me:
Hmm I don’t know what to say really. I’m always very bad at this. I'm almost 18, living in New Jersey (but please, we’re the REAL Jersey Shore, not that MTV disgrace >_<). I love to write, short stories, poems, as well as fanfiction, though the only ones I have on FF are joking crackfics that I wrote for friends (and never any Abarat fanfiction, partly because I never have the time to write anymore when I get ideas, and partly because I don’t think I could measure up to the bar set by redstockings ) I also love to read, Jodi Picoult, YA Fiction, Manga <3. Like I said, I never really know what it say in these things, so if you want to get to know me, you can ask me anything. I’m a very open person, and many people have described me as being bubbly. Otherwise, I guess you’ll just have to get to know me as I post Because unlike the other two times I tried to join this forum and left, this time, I’m not going anywhere ^_^
