A dilemma. Rebekah Send a noteboard - 06/12/2010 07:09:31 PM
The first couple of times I read this, Ammar and Jehane were my favourites.

Now, I can't decide whether I like Jehane or Miranda better, and I wasn't as impressed by Ammar as I had been previously.

What are your thoughts, my dears?

Yes. Phèdre no Delaunay de Montrêve (as opposed to Racine's Phèdre). Legolas - 18/11/2010 08:37:49 PM 648 Views

Because I was amusing myself with this during the read: on meanings of names and places Legolas - 18/11/2010 03:38:39 PM 1223 Views
I wish I had the time and brainpower to do that when reading books. Rebekah - 18/11/2010 07:48:30 PM 728 Views
Actually, I'm not sure if it really enhanced the reading experience. Legolas - 18/11/2010 08:11:29 PM 724 Views
Hm. Rebekah - 18/11/2010 08:15:32 PM 926 Views

That is what I thought about "Esperaña" Camilla - 29/12/2010 11:33:12 PM 766 Views
I did not catch all of those. Certainly not the arabic name-references. Camilla - 29/12/2010 11:53:46 PM 891 Views
