You have synesthesia? That’s so cool! Thanks for your response, I think that’s great that the song leaves that kind of impact on you.

You might have to explain what that thing is though XD.

@theducktator

Thanks for your thoughts. Your most likely right about the self righteous point from which the authors were writing. They did…[Read more]

*Cries in a corner*

I do like how in this book, we’re getting to see the perspective of one of the soldiers.

True.

It is also true, I forgot. We only have one female character so far. Other than what I call “extras.” And she isn’t from the city, so we have a POV blind spot, so to speak.

@ellette-giselle

Thanks for letting me know lol.

@elishavet-pidyon

Ah, another classical music lover! (The lack of classical fans is alarming). I love classical, and somehow enjoy rock as well XD. Thank you, Paul’s passage is very applicable here.

You mentioning rock and rebellion reminded me of one boy who, before converting, loved heavy m…[Read more]

@hybridlore

Thank you for the concern, it’s so kind of you! Your right on the money, I have noticed I’ve become a bit obsessive/overly scrupulous about things recently, so as you mentioned I will look into OCD.

@linus-smallprint

Huh, that’s interesting about the instruments. I’m not still completely sure why I felt uncomfortable listeni…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Huh. I guess that would make sense.

Ellette, if that’s true, maybe make that clearer?

@hybridlore I think the girls are taken but not to be soldiers. More like strategists and informants.

@ellette-giselle ^^

Yes, I think he’s going to do that.

I do like how in this book, we’re getting to see the perspective of one of the soldiers. This is a strong part of the world building, so it’s nice to get a deeper look into it.

Is it just boys who are taken, or are there girls too? Because I feel like you might have mentioned something about there being a girl at the rehab center but I hav…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I commented after I finished the third one. 🙃

@whalekeeper @keilah-h @linus-smallprint

Alright, we’ll see if he responds!

@ellette-giselle

Wow. This is getting intense.

Good chapters!

@whalekeeper ahhh okay that makes sense

If you don’t think it’s a comparable scenario, I’d be curious to know why.

@linus-smallprint

I’m not going to dig myself too far into this convo. But the way I see it, the government is torturing the inhabitants of the city. They’re literally killing kids. So… I don’t know what to say, other than to pose the same situation in front of you and ask you what you would do. There’s no peaceful way to deal with this, and…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I feel like I’m bad at explaining this…. is it making sense? Or am I just making the world more confusing at the moment….. XD

I think I get what you are saying. Christians should rebel and take on the government if it is the only means to protect their families. That was also an argument in your friend’s essay on violence: Fathe…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009 Awesome!

@hybridlore

Once the others email me back, I’ll see if I have any more nagging questions or things that stump me that I might need your help with haha

I already have your email soooo I’ll just email you when I’m ready!!!

@ellette-giselle

Very sorry for not replying soon. Work picked up again, and I’ve been wasting the free time I have.

Wow!! That was fast!

Heh heh. I had a lot of free time to read during long drives.

I think we both have different beliefs on this in general, but if there are some things you want to talk about, then I’m willing to listen. I t…
