10-29-10 Graceling

I think it would be lonely to have a "grace" like Katsa....I mean who would want to hang out with someone who has the potential to kill you with a look? I wonder how much control she really has over her gift?
I think it is interesting that women can attend the council- my inner voice is telling me that this it directly opposite of what I know about that time period- when men were in control of everything?  This leads me to believe that the genre of the book is more fantasy and not "historical fiction". 
I predict that Katsa will be asked to do something by the council that she doesn't want to.
Wow!  That guy is brave to want to train with Katsa- I don't think he knows what he is getting into.
"You always know what's happening behind you."  I think that is what they call having "eyes in the back of your head" (teacher have that by the way)
OKAY...I think she does have a crush on this guy- the author is dropping hints like "she hasn't ever been this content" at the castle before- I think it is because of this new guy...who she likes?
