Why not try “Secrets of Droon”?

Hey there adults with children. Want to introduce your kids to a magical world of adventure and wonder NOT written by an open and proud bigot? Well why not try “The Secret of Droon” series? We’ve got:

1) Three different main characters with different personalities and quirks for self insert options

2)  A spunky princess who can take name and kick ass while still being very polite (because manners are important)

3) An elder wizard father figure that does NOT manipulate the cast into convoluted plans to do his bidding

4) A comic relief side character that is not annoying as hell

5) An evil dark lord with a tragic backstory an redemption arc

6) An even eviler dark lord with no redemption arc that must be defeated at all costs

7) A mysterious, morally grey character with a secret connection to the princess.

8) A missing Queen 

10) Comedy, suspense, romance, drama, AND angst.

11) 44 TOTAL BOOKS

12) And best of all, the knowledge that every dollar you spend on this series is not given to a horrible, horrible person.

Have fun!

This is the primary AG holiday decor in our house. Seemed unlikely that we could afford to collect all the historical holiday outfits, so this is the next best thing.

My favorites were always Kirsten and Rebecca, although the only doll I have is Caroline (third favorite)

Harvey's been filming a new project that seems to be the newly-announced Damned If You Do, starring and executive-produced by Kate Siegel.

Deadline's description of the film:

Written by Ellen Adair and Eric Gilde, and produced by Objectively Good Media, the film follows a group of teenage friends who sold their souls to the devil. Naturally, life grants them different paths: a rock star, a tech mogul, and a high-profile activist. Years later, they must rely on an old classmate to try and escape Hell’s grasp before the contract’s deadline of their 25th high school reunion.

I went from only two winter coat sets to having a lot more cold weather wear. Since I sold Samantha's Beforever coat, everything except for Rebecca's outfit is new.

Went with the calico dress for Julie since she wore the casual outfit a few months ago. Also since I had Kaya wearing her winter accessories previously, she gets to wear the fancy shawl this time.

The hardest to dress was Kirsten because her fingers kept catching the sweater. Hardest to pose was Maryellen, whose skates I think have permanently scratched my dresser.

It was a close race between Kirsten’s winter woolens and skating outfit, but Lindsey’s Valentine’s party outfit had a strong lead all the way.

2, 3, 4 for the ask game! (My sideblog is beautifulwillfulldead btw, I changed my name)

2. which american girl looks the most like you?

honestly, none of them. just like you #57 with the bobbed hair is probably the closest, but the shade of brown hair is wrong and so is the eye color. from the historical line, if you gave rebecca or ruthie a bob, we’d be in the general realm of what i look like. but yeah, no great match for me!

3. which girl do you think you’d get along the best with and why?

well, only working from the historical line here, i am pretty similar to sam, so i’d hope that i’d get along with nellie! and based on the type of people i’m friends with irl, kit, kirsten, addy and julie seem like strong contenders.

4. which girl is your least favorite and why?

still thinking just about the historical line, there’s nothing that endears me to the twins, but i also haven’t read their books so i feel like that answer doesn’t fully count. probably controversial, but molly (while someone i liked as a kid) is a character that really grates on me now. there’s just so much in her that needs to be the center of attention, and i simply don’t find her the most interesting character. that being said, she’s still a child and has a lot of growing to do, so this is not me calling her evil or something.

Hab Das Mädchen, das allein nach Haus geht zuende geguckt. Ganz offensichtlich ist der Grund, aus dem Nina in den nächsten Folgen nicht mehr dabei ist, der, dass sie zusammen mit Julie in den Flieger gestiegen ist und die beiden zusammen ein neues Leben angefangen haben. Ganz eindeutig. Eine andere Erklärung gibts nicht.
