Graceling Discussion!!

It's been a long time coming, but here it is - our Graceling discussion! We're starting with the following question:

How does your opinion of Kasta change through the book? Explain.

I think my opinion of Kasta changed when she met Bitterblue. Those chapters - her meeting her and the
dangerous hike through the mountains - showed a deeper, less selfish side to Kasta. It made me think "She really does have a heart. There is so much more to her Grace than killing and it shows." We haven't had alot of chances through the story until that point to see that motherly and caring side to Kasta. Being neglected and alone, she tends to keep to herself. Even with Po, she is unsure of where she stands. But when she saves Bitterblue and leaves Po behind to do what she must, we see raw human emotion and a new Kasta emerges.

Hail all you bookworms out there!

Let me just say I'm uber excited about this blog. For those who are a follower of my other blog 21st Century Once Upon a Time's, this is the place for you to be - an online book club where we can obsess about books together!

So be patient with me...and Blogger...and the Internet...whilst I try to set up a few great features for us to use in our club. Hoping to get a book out there by next week, so stay tuned!
