Carl Conrad Coriander Would Be A Good Name For A Pictionary - Tumblr Posts

Alright starting The Neverending Story by Michael Ende now.

The chapter title for the prologue is written in reverse text, named after the bookshop's sign as seen from inside.  ɿɘbnɒiɿoƆ bɒɿnoƆ lɿɒƆ ƨʞooઘ blO   I said " oh that's brilliant" out loud to myself when I read that.

Mr Coriander is really laying into Bastian here isn't he.

Gracious this prose is good; I just want to quote like the whole thing where Bastian decides to steal the book

And now it's explaining why Bastian ran to his school after that and to the attic specifically; there's just so much in this book that just goes unexplained in the movie isn't there

Mouse. Living in the attic. We meet it then it's gone; sort of a Mario 1-1 of the fantastical characters we only catch glimpses of in the book itself

There's a teensy little bug crawling around in the pages here? Don't think it's part of anything but I wouldn't put it above them.

Been intending using this blog as a notetaking place for things I read. Might as well commence with Michael Ende's The Neverending Story, see how this goes. I read some of this book in elementary or middle school, but the green/purple print kind of hurt my eyes back then for some reason, so I didn't get very far. No problem with it now, so let's see how this goes.

(Anyway also for the record I've seen all three films ofc. The second one, doesn't suck? The third one, well... well anyway the second one doesn't suck. (There's apparently a cartoon or something as well but I don't know anything about that.))
