"RED is the most joyful and dreadful thing in the physical universe; it is the fiercest note, it is the highest light, it is the place where the walls of this world of ours wear thinnest and something beyond burns through. It glows in the blood which sustains and in the fire which destroys us, in the roses of our romance and in the awful cup of our religion. It stands for all passionate happiness, as in faith or in first love." -G. K. Chesterton

The Queen of Attolia
by Megan Whalen Turner
Grade: Unfinished
Read: The first page.
I wanted to read this! I really did! I loved the first book! But it was the beginning of school, as mentioned in the last post, and I mostly forgot the first book, and Christina took it before I could read it. But I will read it.
EDIT: Ok, I've read it now. FINALLY. And it wasn't quite as good as I was hoping. It was pretty good, and I love Eugenides. And I really like Attolia. But there was a lot of politics. So maybe I'll change it to "Good" instead of "All right"... But no, I think because now I've also read King of Attolia, I'm more partial to the whole series. So I'll change it to "Good".
