The Icarus Project starts with such wit, leaping, springing, from one topic to the next while still staying on base, not completely moving to a different subject. Adding detail here, humor there, hope over there, there isn't a dull part. And she describes all the colors so PERFECTLY! I love how Maya seems special, but not abnormal, like, you know, she's not going to bonk her head on the ceiling when she learns to fly 1 hour later. She has good character grounding. ''The lights in the auditorium flickered, and a wave of hushed silence spread over the crowd. Blackness engulfed us as we looked up. Black was the absence of color. It was the freezing color of out space. And of closed eyes. Where colors went to die." - The Icarus Project, page 22Almost 9 years agohappypug12liked a comment in Savvy.

Dumpling Days was wonderful, heartwarming, and best of all, mouthwatering. I have read all Grace Lin's previous books, and she never has lost her touch in a single one of them to make my mouth drool and stomach growl. I also love her short stories inside the actual story. This was a perfect book that you will sympathize with and smile with.Almost 9 years agohappypug12 has read this book.

Cool! Unfortunately, Pluto is not considered a planet now based on the evolutionary definition about what is a planet and what is not a planet. I think Pluto should still be considered a planet because I actually do not agree with evolution, because I actually am a Christian. I hope people go back to God and base their beliefs of science on the Bible. So sad that many people don't believe in GodAlmost 9 years agobigmeloliked a comment in Historic Flyby Of Pluto Reveals Fascinating Details About The Dwarf Planet.
