"The book is titled Sarah Plain and Tall"

The fuck is that

ouIhvva

Pretty sure this is more than 4 in the series

Maybe only the first two are directly connected?

5.) In your opinion, would it be considered a book that is widely popular and/or well-known? Say, not necessarily as well-known as Harry Potter or LotR, but somewhat close.
Yes


Yes

Really?

The book was followed by four more exploring the Witting family after Sarah's arrival: Skylark, Caleb's Story, More Perfect Than the Moon, and Grandfather's Dance.


A three-book series with five books

I mean, I know nothing about the series, but are all 5 of them direct sequels/prequels to one another?

Like, let's take LotR as an example -- common logic says there are three. But what about the Silmarillion? I mean, you and I both know it isn't a prequel/sequel, but can you really say with 100% confidence that it's "not an installment in the LotR series?"

Again we all know the closest thing to call it is a "spinoff" or mini-book or something. But does that mean it's not part of the "series?"

FrenchCrunch posted...

There is, but it looks like it was a TV movie (I can't find anything about it being released in theaters). So that answer was wrong too, because I did specify theaters in question 8

8.) Are there any movie adaptations that were ever released in theaters?
*Like on a widespread basis, as opposed to a one-off showing at some independent film festival or something
Yes

Oh 100%, I sympathize with women and the dangers they face with online dating, but it's just an odd thing to say. Like, does it mean she just doesn't want to go "out" as in "outside?" Maybe she's down to hang out but wants to stay in and watch movies instead of going out partying? Or does it mean she's super hesitant to meet anyone at all? (Probably that)

That's amazing

On-topic, she opened up a little more via text conversation which was nice. It ended though because it was dragging on and I just didn't get a reply as the night went on. But she said all she needs to consider going out with someone (SEE: post 226) is time. So I'll just chat with her periodically until she's game to go out.

I kept getting questions about if he was married or had kids or what color his hair was, so I gave it a lot of "probably yes" and "I don't know" so that probably explains why it took so long to guess.

How long has she been single if she needs time? Guess she hasn't been back in the dating game for a long time

I actually don't think it's about just getting out of a relationship or anything -- based on her questions, it seems like she just doesn't have a lot of experience and is nervous in general. She's only 20 too, for what that's worth.

I get the sense that she's just shy and doesn't go out much. She's way cute and would have no problem getting a date IRL if she wanted.
