*The Prime Minister, furious at his seven-year old daughter’s kidnapping and the cowering villagers who did nothing to prevent the abduction, turns his wrath on the townspeople, forcing all the men and boys into jails with the intent to execute them all as an example.*

Oh my, Mr. Prime Minister sounds like such an ass. Does he stomp his feet whe he throws his tantrums too?

*Lilly cuts off her hair and masquerades as a boy*

One of my favorite tropes!

*Along the way, Lilly grudgingly befriends a young Raider boy named Zeph – who happens to be the son of the Raider leader responsible for the kidnapping.*

Oh sweet Convenience Monster burn! Does it come off as convenient?

*London Times/Chicken House Children’s Fiction Competition*

I’m sure people are proud to win this, but not knowing the context behind the name, I’m still chortling as I type that I’m chortling.

Okay, I’m almost embarrased to admit it, but my favorite movie is Wall-E. I’ve watched it a few times with my grandkids. Day after Tomorrow was okay.

Hmm “The Stand” is probably my favorite, and I just read “The Hunger Games” and that’s great too!

I actually enjoyed Day After Tomorrow (I only just saw it about a year ago).

And … don’t judge me for this, but I LOVED Waterworld. It’s cheesy and dopey but the thought of a world without land really appealed to me as a kid (which probably means I should read Flood).
