I listened to the audiobook version and fell in love with the story. Verity is a character you just can't help but laugh along with when she makes the off-handed comments throughout about Hauptsturmführer von Linden and the rest of the military guards around her. Considering her position it's amazing how much time they gave her to write it out, which seems very unlike the military to be so patient. Or the parts where there's translation involved after writing and it's all gibberish? Ah! Classic lol Can't help myself, I may actually have to read the book to see if I can "hear the voices" ;)<br />- KrysKrys Readshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08549661407988742860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8646664861833035183.post-39065212256196139172013-12-03T07:49:11.521-08:002013-12-03T07:49:11.521-08:00Whoooops, sorry Mel.

Had to stop by and see you curled ...Oh hey, Blythe. Had to stop by and see you curled up in a ball of emotional agony. And then point and laugh. That's what friends do, right? I lost my manual, but I'm FAIRLY certain that's what I'm meant to do here.<br /><br />http://mrwgifs.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Now-Comes-The-Part-Where-We-Throw-Our-Heads-Back-In-Laughter-In-George-Of-The-Jungle.gif<br /><br />Ha, second chances are why I went through a two year streak of not DNFing anything. What if the moment I DNF something I start hearing how awesome it actually is and then I later have to reread that same boring fifty pages. Noooooo. <br /><br />"hate it's guts" *coughs*<br /><br />I actually didn't get all the way to love for CNV. I'm impressed by it, but I didn't get emotional about it, which is the love token for me.<br /><br />I DID NOT CRY.<br /><br />http://media.tumblr.com/dc753f0c580d5b6353f7d8e9c535176e/tumblr_inline_mpcbf6HcwE1qz4rgp.gifChristinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00370486039531015541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8646664861833035183.post-28213949875415033482013-12-02T02:13:45.159-08:002013-12-02T02:13:45.159-08:00WOW sounds super emotional and the historical aspe...WOW sounds super emotional and the historical aspect of it will make it even more so!
