He's cute in the boyish-looks-but-i'm-sure-hella-smart way.
ROFL I can only imagine the things that you would say.

Aw, he's cute.
ANDZOMFGIBOUGHTMYCOPY. I am helping my friend do her wedding invitations so I can't start reading it today. Or, at least, not until later. After the football game. There will be no silence in my house while there is a football game going. BUTAHHHHH! He's so cute.  Ugh, I spent all day helping my friend with her wedding invites. I haven't even cracked it open yet. Bleh.

Same here. I just started to read it now, but I still have mountains of math homework to get to. I CAN NEVER JUST ENJOY A BOOK. I SWEAR It's interesting so far.

I read the first section about Eragon before it got to Nasuadadadabablahablah. ITS SO GOOD ZOMG.
I stayed up till 2:30 reading. And I had to wake up at 6 today. This book will be the death of me.

wait, the Nasuada part? at the beginning? /lost
the synopsis at the beginning saved my life. i'm glad he put it there. i would have been completely lost without a brief re cap.

LOL
He writes the books in sections. First section is about Eragon/Roran and then there is a Nasuada section about what's going on with the Varden. Soon he'll bounce back to either Arya or Eragon. The recap was a good idea. |

NO. He always switch's POV right as something really good is going to happen. Freaking pisses me off. Sometimes I just want to skip it but then I know that i'll miss something. ARGH.
This book is going to take me forever to read because all this week i'm working. Argggghhhh. |

and i know! i`m not going to have too much time to read it, either. but i`ll try and sneak it in somehow.

LOL me sneaking in reading time is staying up until 230 when I have to wake up at 7. It's baaddd.
The first book was completely Eragon's POV. Then, in the second one, he kept switching from Eragon, Roran, AND freaking Nasuablahddada. It was incredibly frustrating. Rawr. |

UGH I SAY THE SAME THING. Sometimes doing the right thing constitutes reading more pages of them trying to figure out if its the right thing and it's way annoying. And I DID THE SAME THING! (AWWWWWW) I'm a bit further than you, so, i'll keep my lips sealed. |

hahaha. i hate how now when i read the book, i visualize him
as Eragon. I mean, it's not bad, i guess. I'd just rather have the characters I visualize instead of real life actors.

MMMMM
But he's a mighty FWWWINNNEEE visualization, IMO. I picture the guy for Roran too. But for Arya, for some reason, I picture Liv Tyler from the LoTR movies. Just because the description fits with her perfectly. I always envision everything playing out in my head. That's one of the things that I love about these books is that he describes things in detail which allows you to paint that vivid picture in your head. |

 True.  I totally get the Liv Tyler connection, too. // I was thinking about that when I was reading. Everything is so perfectly detailed! No wonder why the movie was completely..........

The freaking book was a script and did a hell of a lot of the work for them. Those people just don't know how to do adaptations.
Man, if Peter Jackson had gotten his hands on this baby, all of these would be best-selling-record-makin' movies. And a younger Liv Tyler = Arya. Fo' Sho'. |

Oh man. I could totally imagine P. Jackson working his magic. I bet that would be cool for Paolini, seeing as how he got some of his influence from Tolkien.
