Today’s Book: From the Mixed-up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler by E. L. Konigsburg
I bought this book yesterday at Booksale for only Php5.00! Super cheap yet super good! I’m thrilled. Another great find! The first thing I did this morning after I woke up was to read this book. It was really interesting so by lunchtime, I was halfway through it. After watching 2 movies, I resumed reading and before the day was up I was done. It was that fascinating.
The story was about two siblings, namely Claudia and Jamie Kincaid, both elementary students who ran away from home to find adventure. They practically lived within the confines of Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City for a week without getting caught and discovered a secret history had long veiled.
I am yet again inspired to write a story of my own, visit museums and had an adventure of a lifetime too! :)
Favorite Lines:
Mrs. Frankweiler: “I keep telling you that often the search proves more profitable than the goal.”
Jamie: “You know what they always say: The only two ways to get to know someone are to live with him or play cards with him.”
Jamie: “Yeah, I guess homesickness is like sucking your thumb. It’s what happens when you’re not sure of yourself.”
Mrs. Frankweiler: “The adventure is over. Everything gets over, and nothing is ever enough, Except the part you carry with you.”
Claudia: “Five minutes of planning are worth fifteen minutes of just looking.”
**I JUST OH SOO LOVE READING. :)
