forgot to mention...
i finally finished eragon last friday. at first i had mixed feelings when i read the first few chapters. felt like i was trying to crank up a lawn mower, pulling the cord over and over and hoping the engine would start. but that wasn't the only thing. i kept thinking to myself, "hey, some of this feels a lot like LOTR." the story finally took off when eragon’s dragon came into the picture. i loved how the two developed a bond by mentally speaking to each other. when their minds connected, i found myself finally connecting with the story. overall, the book was fun and i enjoyed it so much that i didn't want to put it down. now i’m really nervous about seeing the movie after i saw the online trailer. i’m hoping for the best...
can't wait to read eldest.
