Whew, I was worried that I was being too vague because I couldn't figure out how to put it, but I'm glad that you understood! :)<br /><br />Thanks, Amber! <3 Haha, thanks again! That way I can think about what to listen to and show favorite passages without having to do it myself. :)<br /><br />It is great how many lovely bits are in this, and I can't wait to see where it goes!

I thought that they had already accepted David, but he will still need to do some work to join their idea of their clan. I love your insight into this, because once again, that is so true! As Miss Alice said in the book, some people always go along with what they've been taught and never really understand what it is! That's neat that you had a chance to form an opinion when you were so young! Now that you say that, I agree with you, it's funny that we always are sad about the animals. It reminds me of a scene in the movie Peter Pan (1953) where we are sometimes more worried about the animals than the people! It was a big relief for aure. Thanks, Julie! I can't wait to read your posts!Chloe the MovieCritichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02200752624092560917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3354853575539461524.post-41624877816822399722019-10-30T12:35:19.872-06:002019-10-30T12:35:19.872-06:00Love all the quotes you chose!

And I totally know what you mean about both admiring and being annoyed with Christy when she approached Mr. Smith about money. Great way to put it! <br /><br />Your thoughts about forgiveness and Christianity and the church are lovely. ♥ And I like your idea about hosting, picking out the readings while letting someone else read aloud. :) <br /><br />So happy you're enjoying the book and relating to Christy! Looking forward to discussing more with you!<br /><br />~AmberAmber Holcombhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15100265646497152198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3354853575539461524.post-61649910026836281392019-10-28T05:37:48.584-06:002019-10-28T05:37:48.584-06:00I'd like to read it.

I too was frustrated with how the people turned on David. It definitely showed though that they are very clannish and are loyal to each other and outsiders might always be outsiders no matter how much they like them. I too can relate to Christy in trying to express my opinions when the doctor was questioning her about what she believes. I would think that any 19 year old would have a hard time with that. But unless you have someone asking hard questions you may continue on following other people's opinions and not forming your own. At 19 my husband was always asking for MY opinion rather than whoever was the hot opinionated person of the time. ha! It made me think for myself instead of accepting others' opinions just because I admired them. Poor Prince! Isn't it funny how we always feel for the abused animals in stories? I think people can think and care for themselves, but animals are at our mercy and we are to protect them not abuse them so I definitely would have felt awful for the poor guy! I too was glad that they didn't hurt him physically, just surface and hair grows back right? Great post and so glad that you caught up again!<br /><br />Julie @ My Favorite PastimeJuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07190011785450338206noreply@blogger.com
