Cion Blog # 3

I think I enjoyed this week’s reading on Cion the best. It was full of so many things going on at once but this did not confuse the story, it just made it even better to read. I enjoyed reading about the slave and his master who went around convincing people that this powder that they had would make women have babies in half the amount of time. I found this funny that someone would even think of such a thing let alone people would actually buy it. My favorite part of that chapter was that the man ended up being sold as a slave and his slave ran free. In chapter five I had many favorite parts; the main ones would be when he first finds the drawings in ghost tree, when he and Ruth get into a fight and when Obed is Santa Clause. The drawings I feel are going to become and significant part of the novel even more than they already have. I also found it funny how turned off Ruth became when Toloki asked about Ruth’s drawings. I feel there is more anger towards Ruth then just the fact that she does not like how she drew or quilted. Finally thinking of Obed in a Santa costume was just a funny thought.
