Well, here we are, mid-February and I've finished the "His Dark Materials" trilogy. It started out pretty good and went downhill from there. Bummer.
I just finished The Amber Spyglass, and was pretty disappointed. Not only was it entirely too long, but it also wandered from the main point and tried to do too much. I loved The Golden Compass because there was a clear goal in mind (Lyra tries to save Roger) but this one had too many things going on and I was pretty uninterested throughout.
Anyway, I am glad this series is done even though I enjoyed the first book. Yesterday, in anticipation of finishing this book, I downloaded Emma for free. I think I will read that next. As soon as The Return of the King is back in the online library, I will download that to read as well.
Well, this was disappointing. Hopefully Emma will be more enjoyable.
