  1. Reading Eldest makes you feel as if things from the book could or should happen. The stuff that he describes makes you feel as if you were there and you can see the things going on. Every page unleashes a world of feelings whether there good or bad and every chapter is a new idea that makes you jump with anticipation to where you can't put down the book.

    I think that other people should read this if they like action, adventure and lots of twists in a book. Though this book jumps from one character to the next which makes it really hard to get a grip on a subject that is being introduced

  2. Why do you feel as though the things in this book could really happen? Think about what the author does to give the reader that impression. Not an easy task, but something to keep in mind!

    How do all the emotions in the book affect you? Sometimes I find it draining to get caught up in the characters emotions, and sometimes their lives become so much a part of me that I'm genuinely taken over by them, put in a better mood when they're happy, heartbroken when something goes wrong.

    Thanks for sharing!

  3. Christopher Paolini Reason I think he makes the events in the book come to life is the way he writes them and how he describes them.
