Blazing Readers & Wordy Writers discussion

While you're reading the book, share some thoughts with us! Here are some questions to get you started:

Do you have any predictions on what's going to happen?
What did you think of [insert scene here]?
What do you think of the author's writing style?
Is it easy to read, or difficult?

What do you guys think of the societal structure? What do y'all think of Weslan...who trusts him and who doesn't?

(Haven't started yet, but when I do, I'll pop back by this thread and answer your questions. :-)

I started last night, and I'm already on page 57! (Ebook) It's a very unique take on Cinderella's story. The social structure seems a pretty clear comment on prejudice, and I sort of want to smack Belle, but then again (view spoiler)[ she was hurt in the explosion. (hide spoiler)] I'm not sure I fully trust Weslan. He just seems so nice...

Hmm. I'm kind of disappointed on how it's focusing more on the relationship between her and Weslan instead of the plot. (68% through)

Dude! I loved the social structure! I think that was my favorite part of the book. I'm always fascinated by world-building anyway, but this one seemed so intricate. I just wanted more of it!

Hmm, I don't know. I think I kind of liked that. I mean, I'm a total goob, though, so it could just be me. I guess I never really felt like the plot suffered for their relationship. Though, I think I was suspicious of him at first.

I love the social structure too! It's rare to find such complex world-building, so I'm satisfied. I think Weslan has something up his sleeve, so like Catherine I'm really not very interested to read more about their relationship.
