Chapters 10-12 (FC)

BOstan said.........


I still like it! I really like Cressy, and i don't know how the story is gonna end, but it will be something big or funny or something. I still like Kit's mother but she could act a little responsible and could stop spending on clothes for two seconds. I could understand if they were not in debt, but they are and she should stop or Kit should say something. But it was a funny way for Her admirer to tell Kit off, and if i were Kit i would just deny anything. Really.

I thought it absolutely hilarious on how his mother justified her expenditures. I like Cressy all the more, for she is not afraid to do things some people back then would have thought to be a servants work, which is arranging flowers. I myself love to do so. I also think her grandmama is coming around.  She seems to be a little less unpleasant, and I am happy of her opinion of Kit. I also thought it was quite funny that Bonamy should have recognised Kit by the way he opened his snuff box! I would not be like him at all in his not wanting to know. I am the kind of person that loves to know a good secret. That is not to say that I will put my nose where it is not welcome. But I do love to know things, and am a very curious person. I also really liked Cressy for her calm response, and I wonder what in the world she meant when she said she was already interested in someone else. I have my ideas but will have to wait and see.

Chapters 7-9 (FC)

Bostan Said...............

I found it pretty good! Yep!

Well i liked the chapters, and i liked the conversation. It is refreshing to read a book like this that has a lot of conversation. Don't get me wrong i love my other favorites but this is different, she might not do it for all of her books i don't know, but it is nice in my view. MY favorites are starting in the beginning, i liked the conversation from the journey to the country house to the the conversation from the house. I really like Kit because he is not perfect and fails at times but he is a nice bloke. From a short acquaintance i like the old nurse, she seemed really nice. And in the story i liked the change of plans, His mother coming down and acting so childish. I think she is cool, and the arrival of the dreaded guests was a nice change and startle. It was pretty funny the way Kit's mother acted and how she invited her brother to stay, for that reason. Cressy is a nice character, i love her. And in a comical way her grandmama is not as bad as every one says, she is just old style and made to be rude and mean. I think it is the effect of having wealth to fast and for to long. I hope no one criticise me for saying i sort of like her. :)

I am forever in love with this book! I thought it amazingly amusing, with new twists along the way. I enjoyed the conversation immensely, and think the whole story line splendid. I think it hilarious that his mother invited her intolerable family just to be red of Cressy and her grandmama! I am exceptionally drawn to Cressy. I think it is her lightness of manner, and her wit. She is sweet, yet shy, and she always tells her mind. Kit and her seem to be a good match, but of coarse this is not suppose to be. It always seems to be that way. I am growing ever more curious of his brothers were abouts. Well all in all I thought it VERY well written, and the description of the estate.

Bible reading........

I was wondering, if you think we should create a new blog for our bible reading schedule? That way, this site does not get to cluttered. If you think it would be a good Idea, I can create a new blog, that way you can still be able to get on it, and it will be nice to have a separate blog to avoid clutter. What do you think??? Just tell me and I will ether still keep on posting for the bible reading on this blog, or create a new one so we can post there. I would like to know by tomorrow, that way we could have today's feedback on the bible reading on it. Thanks!

Chapters 4-6 (FC)

Bostan Said.......................
I really like it now. I like Kit and even Evelyn's almost lover. I really like how the story is turning and as it goes on kit is getting into even more trouble. He heard it himself she said she likes Evelyn even more now and since he is kit not Evelyn he is in trouble about that. I really want to know what happened to Evelyn and i don't know what story about his disappearance to believe. ?????? i am intrigued. I hope you liked it. The chapters seemed to fly faster this time.

I really liked it! It did seem to go faster than last time. The conversation was amazing!!!! I like Cressy immensely, and she seems to have a head on her shoulders. I think my favorite thing about this reading was the conversation between Kit and Cressy. I also thought that his mothers suitor, was kind of funny. Well that is all I have time for today, and am glad you liked it. I can't wait to read chapters 7-9!

Chapters 1-3 (FC)

Bostan Said..............
I am glad you liked it. I was glad that it was entirely dialogue, we get to understand the characters better it think. I still want to know more about kit, but i really like his mother. She is more like the friend mother and that's cool. I am glad that it begins with a mystery and i can't wait to see what happens to Evelyn. The Author really put good conversations that fit the right person and that is very engaging. I agree with you, let the next chapters pour on.....

I was surprised by it! I really did not know what to expect, but no this. I really liked it a lot! I was just surprised by the first 3 chapters being almost entirely dialogue! I thought it was wonderful though. I really like Kit, and Evelyn sounds like a character! I also LOVE his mother. She is funny and laid back, not prone to worry, and can laugh at herself. All in all I really liked this first read, and I think that I will really like the book also. I can't wait to read chapters 4-6 in our next reading!

Bible Reading Schedule

This is the schedule for our bible reading. As you can see we will be doing it daily, and we will read 3 chapters a day, except for Monday.  After we have read the 3 chapters of the day, I was thinking that we could, ins ted of writing a review, we can quote our favorite verse from the bible reading. That way, it won't be to stressful, and won't take up the time of  a review. Oh and the reason why I don't have any schedule for the beginning of the Hebrew scriptures, is because I new that we were going to be reading them in our TMS soon, so I thought it best not to cover them twice to soon. Tell me what you think, and if you like we can start tomorrow with Job.  We will basically read them in the order that they are below, from the first book listed ect. And you can pick the first wild card, where we will read the book you pick, and we will read it every Sunday till it is finished, then I will pick, ect. (We will try not to cover the same book twice.) I am so excited, and hope you like it! Tell me if you don't and we can change things, if you do like it, as I said we can start reading tomorrow!

Monday: Weekly Bible reading (from Theocratic Ministry School)
Tuesday: The accounts of Jesus Life (Matthew-John)
Wednesday: Poetry and Songs (Job, Psalms, and Song of Solomon
Thursday: Prophecy and moral guidance (Isaiah to Malachi, and Revelation)
Friday : Advice (Proverbs, and Ecclesiastes)
Saturday: Letters (Romans to Jude)
Sunday: Wild card, (a bible book that we pick, we can each take a turn =))
