No matter how many times I read it, Chapter 26 always makes me emotional... <3

"If you're going to hello, I'm going with you," is still one of my favorite lines. :)

The campfire sceneeeeeee. 😍

"There is a strange exhilaration in being completely free from trying to win men's understanding."

Okay, Cleo getting smuggled into the city in a CARPET was an awesome reference. As was having her say "When in Rome." 😂

Also, the main boy's named Antony: well done. 😂

"I do not know if I am free--but I think I am beginning to be."

I cried TWICE in the space of one episode.

The sea beast scene always has me 😍😍😍

"All of us live only to die, so it seems to me that the greatest goal in life is that we die well. We are all moving towards the end. But the fortunate die twice. The second time is at the end of life, but before that, some die to self--putting their pride, their ideas, their desires on the altar and slaying them as an offering."

The end of part one (the dream/vision) made me cry.

I also had to pound the desk and muffle a scream.

This might be my new favorite scene.

Chapter 8 always has me 😭

*me reading the fight in the storm between Beowulf and Grendel as if I didn't write it like*

Unferth would have loved the world of modern podcasting.

Auschere! 🥹

*me reading about all these people doing dumb things*

Tolkien really should have given some deeper thought to this decision to call this particular hill TUNA.

If Milton ever runs out of coal, they ought to seriously consider turning to steam power. The amount of hot air being provided by this cast would keep this town running for many years to come.

Man, I love this author.

I love this book so, so much.

The audiobook production is coming along nicely!
