Schindlers resistance!!!

Thank goodness Oskar had the beans to prevent the disease epidemics. I also wish I remembered if they recovered all the goods that were hidden in the river. Emilie has such a hard marriage, but she has the sane kindness Oskar has. It's really nice to read about her contributions to keeping the enslaved prisoners alive.

Amon goeth was arrested!!!
It really makes me sad what happened to the women heading to Monrovia. What happened to the men was not good either, but it's sad they were in Auschwitz's.

It's taken 280 pages to finally get to Schindler's list. Let me tell you, I completely understand what it feels like to want a dictator to be ended along with all their cabinet.

Josef Bau...I hope he continues to be careful.

It hasn't been as bad as I'd thought it would be. Although Oskar has very questionable morals, what he has been doing to save so many Jewish people. Not only him but the few others that saw what was happening was wrong and did the same. Anon Goeth needs to rot in hell.

So it begins....

With the state of the world and my country, reading this book is helpful. It's painful to read about the horrors these people faced, but their story needs to be told and read. I wish they all could be saved.

It's not been bad reading, but with less than 300 pages left I'm dreading the gut wrenching recount of what happened....but the board is set in the book and the pieces are moving.

I've only just started this book, but so far I like people who resist what is wrong and do what they can to make things right. Schindler seems to have compromised morals (adultery and drinking), but he knows the Reich is wrong and is working to get on the right side of history.

I can't believe Dustfinger sacrificed himself for Farid, it's sweet but so sad. I think it's a terrible idea to bring Orpheus there, but this isn't the 1st bad idea these kids had. I can't believe the book binding gave him immortality and I want to know what Mo did that can undo it all. This also makes me rethink wanting to go in the worlds I read about, and a good lesson on how not to play god in a fantasy world.

NOT FARID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I really want to know what Fenoglio wrote to fix things. It's shame Meggie only got to read a portion of it before she was apprehended and then gave the pages away to Firefox. I have no idea how this story will end...but I'm less than 100 pages away from finding out.

I feel bad for Maggie and then I don't feel bad for her. I u dear and wanting to see a fantasy world that's engulfed your entire families life for years on end, but at the same time, everyone told her o stay away. Now she wishes she never came. Serves her right. Maybe she'll listen next time.

Let's see how Fengolio's brilliant plan unfolds.

1) Maggie should've listened to her parent's warnings. She's a typical teenager that thinks she knows more and now guilt is eating at her.
2) I think the Bluejay is Cosimo.
3) I hope Fengolio can write this right.
4) this whole series has really made me question wanting to get pulled into my favorite stories cause even fictional stories have so much danger and even excitement. I like some pretty intense stories

These poor characters are obsessed and have such bad luck. I really hope they get their happy ending. I also have no idea how the second and third books are going to go.

Well they all had several terrifying days and I hope things get better.

Well this book is very interesting.

I'm not following the story as best as I could but it's very entertaining albeit slow. As a lover of books, reading a book about book lovers, rare books, and a green book shrouded in mystery is a good recipe for a nice night in reading. I'm looking forward to seeing how this story unfolds. Also, that back stabbing Dustfinger.

So good. Just as intense as the anime portrayed it to be. I'm living every minute reading this.

This marks the end of the Return of the King and conclusion of the Lord of the Rings trilogy. I really loved reading this book and the whole trilogy. I loved the films and have thoroughly enjoyed reading the pages that gave rise to the script. There's so much to say, but I'd rather sum it up by saying this is one of my favorite books (series).

Now on to read the appendices!

The weddings were so nice to read about.
