Hild not understanding about Satan is just the best. Her mother and brother are getting baptised, and she keeps thinking he's going to pop out of the woods and start attacking everyone for daring to renounce him.

Ooh, that's weird. That's super weird. I don't know how to feel about that.

This book is mostly about Hild, but it's also fascinating to see Christianity take root in Saxon/British culture, transforming it as it goes.

"It's like, I feel like a leaf on a river pouring over a fall — I'm being hurried along, then sucked under. I look at his arms and his shoulders and I'm drowning. I want to lick them, I want to gnaw at them like a teething puppy. No, not like a puppy, like a wolf. I want to tear him apart, eat him up. You can't stop teeth from growing. I can't wait years."

Just got an email from the Pima County library system informing me that my book is (still) late and that I now owe them $1 (so far). This is how libraries make money, guys.

Hmm, I might actually withhold the fifth star now that I think about. Technically, this book deserves it, but it's taking me so long to read . . .

I think I might have stacked the deck a little. This book is seriously leaning towards being a five star read, and that would make it my third of the year. I don't just hand out these ratings, I swear!

Guys, all I have to say is that I'm super glad I didn't live in the Dark Ages. It sounds super stressful.

This book is so detailed I think I'm doing it a disservice by rushing through it so fast. I know I'm missing stuff. Also, I keep thinking, how did she do this!? I feel like I'm reading about another world.

Hey guys, think I can finish this in less than three hours? The answer would be no even if I wasn't at work right now. DAMMIT LIBRARY FINES. I WISH I COULD QUIT YOU.
