New Adventures




In the novel, the Glass Castle, Jeannette Wall's constantly moving around with her family. She goes from places like her grandmother's house which are "pristine white" to places like Battle Mountain which is ranked the worst town to live in. I envy the way she gets to travel around and experience all these different places. Yuki says it's almost like those typical anime's where the hero sets off on an adventure or gets transported to other worlds. Most of the time their families are not involved, but in Jeannette's case her parents are rarely supervising her so she is able to explore freely on her own. I would love to have that freedom and go exploring places like File Island in Digimon, or the Kanto region in Pokemon. Or maybe I could sail to different places like in one piece, or be transported into the Feudal Era like in Inuyasha. Whichever place I end up in I'd like to have new experiences like Jeannette did in the glass castle.

  1. I like this comparison!
    I wish I could travel around on a boat meeting new friends too, especially if I could kick ass with stretchy rubber arms.
