Black Lands: half way mark, ish
So I am half, well almost half way through, and my thoughts on this little gem.
I'm really liking this book, its really odd at the moment, its gripping when I'm Reading it and I kinda feel like I don't want to put it down. But when I do put it down I'm not rushing to get back to it.
Some parts of it are quite repetitive when hes at the moors but at the same time its not annoying that hes there and it does add to the story. Arnold Avery is developing as you read on, he seems darker and darker he has many different sides which you want to uncover and I hope at the end you learn more of what happened to him.
Steven has some great moment especially with his friend Lewis. It does remind me of some of the conversations my cousin used to have growing up. A great example is the conversation between them about Lewis touched a girls boob, and Steven knows and can tell his exaggerating. That did make me laugh.
Another aspect of this book is the relationship between Steven and his mother. There are moments of pure love but there is strain there too. I love to see how this develops.
So far this book had so many great moments and its gripping when you currently reading it, but I've noticed which each chapter I'm getting more engrossed. So if you are or currently have read this book, let me know what you think.
