Re: Book club - GRACELING discussion!!!

"well shouldn't you be lucky that you have two guys fighting for you? How ever can you choose?"

Yeah I'm not fond of those situations! >___> And they didn't fight over her, really; Giddon was jealous all the time but Po took the high road of treating Giddon with courtesy and not making Katsa a reason to fight.

I'm reminded of the bit at the beginning where he messed up her face, and then apologized to Giddon about it. I do think that was shitty of Po - well, of both of them really. Giddon being in love with her doesn't entitle him to being able to look at her pretty face all the time. Ugh, he's so possessive and gross. It was disrespectful of Po to play along with that imo.

I really don't think Po "wore her down". Po never made a move towards her until he saw with his Grace that she would return his feelings. Also she was sexually attracted to him pretty early on but didn't recognize it. They just had a strong friendship that turned into a romance over time.

I liked that Katsa stuck to herself in the book and wasn't coerced in to being with Po, she was with him because he was her equal and didn't treat her differently because of her Grace. I did think the Graces were a little unusual and not super explained well but there was a lot happening in this story.

At first, I liked Giddon but as the story went on, I couldn't stand him.

Re: Book club - GRACELING discussion!!!

Yeah, it's good that their Graces put them on pretty much equal footing.

Giddon was meh for me until he started to be fleshed out, which wasn't much because his whole character existed to shape Katsa's character, but I just liked him less and less as he went on. He gave me such a Nice Guy vibe. I mean, I'm not mad that he exists; he was well-written for what he was. Just very easy to dislike as a person xD

Re: Book club - GRACELING discussion!!!

[shortysc22]

Yeah, he definitely gave me that Nice Guy vibe which is why I'm glad Katsa wrote him off pretty quickly that she didn't want to be with him.

Again, this book as fairly enjoyable as someone who likes YA and reads TONS of it (probably 50 books so far this year)
