So, that’s what I did and why it took so long for me to finally finish it.

I have so much, yet so little, to say about the book I don’t know where to start. I suppose the so much is emotions, and the so little is the ability to put it all into words. What I can say with easy and in one breath: This book was beautifully done and I loved every minute of it to the bottom of my heart. 

There wasn’t a moment that I didn’t I love and cherish and relate too. Everything was natural and soft, really hard to describe other than that. I’m not the best at words, but I can say I loved this book and it is easily a favorite of mine; and will keep a favorite forever.

Below the cut are some points and things I caught along the way. I didn’t do page numbers because I was reading. But, perhaps I’ll do that another time.

Whatever foxes is made out of responds kind of like fire

    Auri blew on him while heading to Borough to brighten him

Auri likes balance -- Going twice left and twice right through Rubric (page 25)

Greely after route through Rubric

     Smells like sulfur there. Why????

     walls crumbling there

leads to Crumledon

     narrow dirt tunnel, steep

     ladder down leads to another room of stone

        oak door down there. room size of closet 

Door leads to Wains

     wide enough for a wagon o go through, high ceilings

         crystal chandelier in there. why???????? HOW?????? (pg 26)

         Odd paintings and marble floors

         Both ends of Wain is blocked by rubble

12 oak doors lining hall

     3 she had opened

“Long years in the underthings” (pg 26) So more than 5 years at least living under the world...

9th door belonged to the key

     sitting room

“nothing like Sit Twice or Faceling” -- other places in underthings???

Tons of bottle in there, a silver gear, a ring, and coins

found a retiring stone under the couch

     calls it a doll

found bone button

     left it there under the carpet tho

Another door in the room

     leads to stairs

     leads to a door on a landing

     a second flight of stairs; many loose and crumbling

     Gap in wall to climb through

        Called this place Tumbrel

            half fallen in, ceiling collapsed, no damp tho

            four post bed in there, mirror, wardrobe, and vanity

                 Clothes in the wardrobe! SO many!!!!

                  Makeup on the vanity still, along with jewelry, brushes, and bottles

Another door 

     closet, small, looks to be a bathroom

Omg Auri just starts sweeping everything to have it clean this cutie

Tied foxen to a lock of her hair aww

     so foxen is a solid of some sort... hm....

Found a loose stone in the floor while moving furniture

    small leather sack and bit of wool padding

    aND SHE JUST MOVED IT BACK. AURI. OMG

Found clean sheets in bottom of wardrobe while re-arranging dresses

    Wont take sheets even though no one is using them :((((

Delving has a warm earthy smell to it

    Went through Mantel to Rubric to Woods (time worn beams from roof in there)

Unheard of to bring things into Mantel apperantly

Second fav dress has deeper pockets

Went to put the buckle in its place, but it didnt belong. She was going to get the sheets, but the buckle didn’t belong so she didn’t. So what I’m thinking is that she plays on an equivalent exchange type of rules: one thing for another. 

Applecourt = apples. apple tree perhaps? where she first meet kvothe???

Going to tree instead

     More tools than food in tree

     Sack of salt, four fat figs, withered apple, handful of peas, some butter

Gear not happy in Mantel, or Umbrel, or Cricklet, or Darkhouse

    Took it to Grey Twelve again 

Auri knows her metals (hearing a bird crack something against an iron pipe)

She always kisses things in apology and that’s super adorable

Ran back to Borough cause of a bird???

     Doorway

     Inside are tables, shelves, bottles, boxes, and containers.

     Another door on the other end

        Light coming through??????

UM AURI WHAT HAPPEND????????

    super pissed about the light and the boot prints

    “Auri glared at the spot here they crossed the threshold....They moved to tables, shelf, and out the other door. They made a circle of sorts... Were not new bootprints. Still, they told a story Auri did not love. They told a story she did not want to see repeated” (pg 47).

      WHO ARE ‘THEY’?????????

      WHY COMING BACK?????

moved into Tenance (place above’s name)

careful to only step in boot prints

     grabbed a brush and ran

Found a broken pipe

ran off to go fix it!

“Just as Master Mandrag said so many years ago.” (pg 50)

     uM WELL THAT’S CONFIRMED SHE WENT TO THE UNIVERSITY AT SOME POINT. LITERALLY CANON. SHIT DUDE OH MAN.

(Basically what I’m getting from these last few pages so far was that Auri was a student, cracked, and was in a scuffle to get away from being put in that one place. Which also explains her paranoia of hearing boots all the sudden as well on page 50. saying “not now” “not yet”. Which also makes me think they looked for her for quite some times before giving up possibly.)

Doesnt know where borkn pipe leads too per-say

     Guesses the Masters Hall

      sHE WAS A FUCKING STUDENT THIS CHAPTER IS JUST CONFIRMING THE SHIT OUT OF THAT YOU GUYS

Hates people being in the underthings

     they don’t care about things as much as she does in the space
