The Name Of The Wind and Up

So, once again, you think, this silly's going to put up a post detailing her (let's face it) unwanted opinion on books. Well, it's true. I've been reading what's called the Kingkiller Chronicles, which is slowly and spellbindingly leading up to(one must assume) the killing of the king. I don't know why I love Kvothe so much, but it's probably because he's a character whom so much has been put into. So much life, so much love. So much intelligence and charisma, that he never fails to impress. And so much ambition that half the time he falls flat on his face. Well, anyway, I love him. And it's his bir 


Ahem. So anyway... Kvothe is good. No other character is as fleshed out as him. Denna sort of aggravates me by the end of book two, but she's got up wound tightly on her little finger, and he doesn't seem to get her yet, so for that I should be grateful. Devi I like. Devi should probably have been the interest, but I can see why that   wouldn't be feasible. Sim and Will, too, are very sound, very very good characters. The world hasn't been explained, though, since the premise of the book is that he's telling the story to someone who already knows the place well. We don't, but our meagre knowledge of faeries can get us through easily.

I also watched Up. Up is good. Very good. Almost too good, some may say. I don't. I've watched it like three times and I totally adore it each time. Russell is still delightfully gullible, Mr. Fredrichson is still funny, Kevin serves as comic relief, and Doug makes me want to cry.

"I will have the bird and I will bring it back to camp. And you will like me."

*sniff* every darn time.

Oh, and-

"I was hiding under your porch because I love you."

PS. In other news, I am alive and kicking, after two totally-awesome-staying-up-all-night-helping-people-all-day fests, our college cultural fest, better known as Mood Indigo, and technical fest, known as... well, Techfest. They were super cool, and I learnt all sorts of new things and met all these great people and *is singing though you can't hear her* was. just. great. Love you, IITB. Can't wait for next year. Wooh. College is really as fun as it's supposed to be.
