Okay I’m up to chapter 29. Finding a rhythm. Going to try to be done within the week
Duncan now awakened in the usual fashion. Odrade is riding a worm. I still don’t really understand what is happening. Why is BG allying with BT?

I was just talking about Spirited Away with my daughter yesterday. We are both huge HM fans but because Spirited Away scared the crap out of her she didn’t finally see the film until her 20s. She saw all the other HM films first.

And just like that I gave up on the audiobook. I keep zoning out. So back to just reading. I gotta say, AI is helping me a lot. I just asked it "Why does Taraza consider eliminating Odrade?"

I’m up to chapter 21. Just got through the weird dancing scene on the streets where those dudes were torn apart by the crowd on old Arrakeen. So. Frakking. Weird.

Reading this book is like being the 5 year old who is forced by their mother to fully eat the plate super limp overcooked canned asparagus so you can have the apple pie for dessert.

OKay, so there is Taraza, Odrate, Lucilla, Schwangyu? Taraza, mother superior, Odrate is the security chief, Lucilla is the Chief Seducer of Duncan, and Schwangyu the ultra conservative. Am I missing anybody?

I just got to the assassination attempt on Duncan. Super confusing. Was Schwangyu in on it or not? Or do I care?
