Liked fake villain and real villain
Sabrina and Daphne thought Prince Charming was the villain, but it was Jack (from Jack and the Beanstalk).
Like twists.
Like that it’s based on fairy tales
I’d like to be in the book and experience what happens, the adventures,
Books make me want to imagine how it would be to be in the world with the characters.
Puck is an amazing character, one of my favorites, because of the way he’s introduced and the way he acts, Pixies take S&D to him in the forest, pretends that he’s going to drown them,
Like stories where characters don’t know who the bad guy is, crime plus adventure story.
In the whole series the characters are trying to figure out who the main bad guy is—Mom read the series
Like books in a series because if you end a book with a cliffhanger, it gets you more excited for the next book.
With Warriors, the fifth book, Blue Star dies, and I want to know what happens to Fire Heart, is he going to be a leader, what is Tiger Star going to do next, and what’s going to happen to the pack.

Recommended for you  Island of the Sequined Love Nun - Christopher Moore

Lots of open questions, builds suspense and makes me more excited to read on.

You know they’re going to make it through eventually, and win, but there are lots of complications that make you more anxious for the ending, how are they going to get out of danger, what is the ending going to be like.
Likes games with stories because you get to make the decision—so in a book, you like seeing what the characters choose to do, and in a game with a story, you like getting to make those choices. Minecraft story mode, games with different endings are pretty cool.

Stories help me imagine new ideas and new things I can do, like creating stories within Kitnim …

How do stories help people? Inspire people to make something cool like a movie or a video game that people like. Helps people imagine different ways that reality could be, that everything could be. Stories help me solve problems because I get ideas, like my imaginary games. I use some version of a villain from one story, and another version from a hero, ideas from different stories and add them together.
