This book is amazing! I saw the movie one day while my husband was out since I knew he wouldn't want to see it with me. I thought it was so meaningful to the times it was set in but as I read it, I start to relive the same feelings as if I were living in those days. The movie doesn't tell the story the same way. The chapters define each character and tell their story. I like what I am reading and can't help but envision the movie as I read. The characters from the movie have become the visual character and I don't know if I would feel the same if it were reversed. When I read the Fools Journey, I felt differently about each character. I had no idea what you envisioned but what I understood from what I was reading. This is all a new thing for me and I am loving it!
I really enjoy the language used in this book. The accent and slang like vocabulary is so realistic to the character speaking. Ailbeen is so sweet. She loves her children she raises and really makes me want to reach out and hug her. Minny on the other hand I'm not so sure I could handle for very long. I love strong personalities but she would DRIVE me a bit crazy and I don't think I could hold back if she gave me that attitude she gives. This book is addictive!!
