    There was one time when I joined a literary connections game and panicked because I completely blanked on a key detail about the main character’s nickname—it’s always the small stuff that trips you up! It taught me to pay more attention while reading, not just rush through. These book quizzes bring out such fun memories.

    Fun quiz! I got most right, though number 3 stumped me. The lunar eclipse is definitely a recurring theme. Perhaps a tie-in with something more action-packed, like Moto X3M, could draw in a wider audience? Excited for your next book!

    Interesting trivia! Especially liked the Nebraska fact and the Jordin Sparks connection. Anyone else find the “Forbidden” theme recurring? Reminds me of trying to sneak in Uno Online during study hall – risky but fun! Good catch on the prion detail too. Maybe a section summarizing common themes could enrich this further?
