106 pages down, 292 to go ...
Jul. 25th, 2004 05:28 pmYou know, there's a lot of stuff going on in this book that I'd completely forgotten over the years. The four or five times I read the trilogy through - before I knew it wasn't meant to be a trilogy, but one complete novel - all took place back in elementary, junior high, and high school. Then I watched the movies. While they are very good, and hit all of the main thematic elements, they do abbreviate or avoid a great many plot elements.
( Observations on the first 106 pages )
Anyway. Time to put dinner in the oven, I think, and dive back in to Chapter Six. Good thing my head's cleared up a little more, I don't think I could handle cooking otherwise, but skipping more than one meal would be even worse for me than trying to eat while the migraine played havoc with my stomach. I don't deal well with low blood-sugar.
