I referenced the Europa Editions hardback for the pages. (491)

I read up to Chapter The Kitchen. The book is interesting so far.

Ophelia seems like she doesn't fit her families lifestyle accept for her Godfather. I feel she might mature more when she is out of her families grasp. She seems like a quiet but mighty kind of girl that will surprise you when you least expect it. At least I hope so, there is so much room for her character to be so much more. I also think she is more powerful than she realizes and her want to read and be knowledgeable, I think is really going to be an advantage in this new place she is going too.

What do you think about Mr. Thorn?

I am now up to The Dragon. I am really liking this book so far. I am so glad you suggested it as a buddy read. I have been eyeing it for awhile and it gave me a reason to pick it up.

Checking in, I am up to the chapter The Mime.
I don't know about this Dragon Family. I am interested in Archibald. I have a feeling he is going to be a vital character.
Berenilde is something special, isn't she. I know she is blond, but for some reason when I read her character I picture Helena Bonham Carter. ( when she played Bellatrix Lestrange)
I am loving the scarf. I hope the scarf plays a vital role in taking someone down.
Where are you at in the story?

I finished the book

(view spoiler)[ I am definitely going to read the second book. I found the growth of Ophelia stagnant. However, the last chapter gave me hope for a more bold Ophelia. I am curious on what is going to happen while in the present of the their spirit. (hide spoiler)]

Thanks again for the buddy read!!
