You're Only a Day Away

I am absolutely terrified that when school starts I won't be able to get in any reading. As you have probably guessed by now, it begins tomorrow. I will be attending a school completely obsessed with traditions, and I am starting to wonder how long it will be before I am jumped. However, like Galt, Roark, Francisco, Ragnar, and Rearden, I shall press on in some way.

Yesterday I managed to cover quite a bit of ground. Howard met Dominique, they talked, they stared, they battled internally, and they eventually slept together (despite how Dominique thinks it was rape). So cute, so sexy, so page turning! I still find it curious that she has not found out his name, but then again it must just be a way to torture herself for her own happiness. I actually find that an interesting concept, perhaps I shall try it sometime. Not today of course, but someday.

My predictions are that she will marry Peter as punishment for loving Roark (because the word "Howard" is too bland). This isn't really a prediction because it is pretty much assured, but whatever. I just wish that Petey would marry Catherine instead, she is just so nice!

I found it interesting how Toohey compared Tristan and Isodelle to Minnie and Mickey Mouse. It really makes me question which of the two is the better story. Personally, I'm a fan of Tristan and Isodelle (because I am obesessed with King Arthur...teehee) and have a feeling this may be some foreshadowing. All for now, ta ta!
