Dang we're still in the shire? Coming from the movies, this is really interesting. Trying to picture someone the same age as my mom going off to Mount Doom is crazy

I feel that there comes a moment in every book where you feel that you have reached the moment you have been waiting for...then you look at how many pages left. We haver reached what we have been working towards the whole novel and there is still half of it left, what is Ramage going to pull

I’m aghast, oh my god.

I'm trying this again. I'm liking this a lot more when I'm not struggling to follow through an audiobook! I'm excited to see how everything is connected.

This book is so beautiful, I'm crying

This is bad

This is one of the saddest books I've ever read

Yvelle, I love you. I want more Yvelle povs

I think it is kind of annoying everytime Chokshi says "and he meant it" and he was earnest", like.....if we are in the character's head, then there are more creative ways to communicate that other than the constant but in from a deeper source to confirm that yes, that character really did mean what they just said.

Honestly, I hope that there isn't much romance in this. I think them having a friendship would be just as impactful, especially with Arris's desire for a passionate romance. I think ESPECIALLy with Demelza's lack of wordly experience, and finding what she wants for herself. That platonic friendship would be super sweet.

Girl hurry tf up

Finally reading this 6 years later

I'm seeing a repeating theme of spells needing to have very specific wording, or just overall choosing your words very carefully or else they can mean something else...Chokshi what are you up to

I've been craving another fairytale-esque story like The Everlasting or The Little White Horse. This is awesome. Also it is reminding me of Don Quixote with the fun titles

I'm liking the ideas that Butler is presenting, in particular the idea of a set "list" of attributes that one can ascribe to a gender, and what happens when there are attributes that fall outside of the set lists. But holy cow does she love to make it complicated.

Going from Erdrich's incredibly rich language to very bare bones language like this is giving me whiplash

I do not like Mary

FINALLY

I was wondering why there was still 50% left of the book
