When you spoil a big part of the series you’re reading for yourself by scrolling too long in the hashtags 😞

Made this meme while I'm re-reading the Serafina series and I'm begging yall to go read it! I've been so lonely in this fandom for eight freaking years

Re-reading Serafina and the Black Cloak because I recently visited the Biltmore and it was all I could think about while I was there

I loved the book so much, and I thought, when this is a technically a kids' geared audience story (protags are 12 years old and I in my early 30's)...how? How do I love this so much? How does the author accomplish this?

I mean I know no reader, what's the quote? No reader worth their salt trots along to a preset timeline...or something? But there IS a very difficult art to be able to accomplish a story that entertains all ages without anyone feeling alienated.

Robert Beatty does SUCH a great job at this. I'm trying to figure out how he does it. The protags process the world around them with that childlike fearlessness, but still make calculated decisions that don't feel too naive.

Robert also gives details that double-feature, which is something I am trying so hard to do myself. Like where he shows Serafina's age where she refuses to eat the grits in her chicken and grits meal, she only wants the chicken. The picky eater thing is a kid move, but later the only chicken preference matches up to what is revealed about her later, being related to a carnivore.

I could go on but this would be a massive essay and

If anyone has any more examples of these I would love to discuss them!

Serafina and the black cloak fandom please hear me on Serafina mom!! /j

Basically this is just a drawing on what i personally thought of what Serafina mom looks like. I’ll draw more of what i think the characters in Serafina and the black cloak would look like. But for now please enjoy my drawing of Serafina mom as human (also i wont draw their animal version because im terrible at drawing animals)

Can't believe I haven't shared this before but here's my Serafina playlist that I listen to when reading the series if anyone's interested

See this cat? This isn’t my cat. It’s a neighbor’s cat (I don’t know which neighbor). I took these photos a few months ago, but randomly I see this cat in my backyard. But I’ve never had the courage to go up to it because stranger danger also works with cats.

Today, I heard my cat S C R E A M I N G, so I went outside to check it out. And what do I see? This cat, sitting a few feet away from mine, pretty chill. And then there’s my cat, hissing, crouched, and growling.

So, I picked up my cat (I call her Sera, short for Serafina from a book series called Serafina), plopped her inside my home, and went back over to the other. Because, y’know, it could be hurt or something.

At first, it darted away because I got too close and approached too fast. The second time, however, I kneeled down about 4 feet away from it and held my hand out. To my surprise, it meowed a few times and then came over and r u b b e d against my hand.

And then it saw a (possibly) injured bird and left. But, yeah.

To sum it up, I pet a neighbor’s cat today and it made me so happy that I immediately told my brothers, but forgot to tell my sis.
