Thoughts on Eva Luna
To be honest this book peaked my interest
barley. It didn't really suck me in and immerse me in something i wanted to
read. I found it quite dull and not appealing. I would rate it a 3 out of 10 on
my scale. I was more drawn into 1001 nights, and was disappointed that we only
read four stories before going into Eva Luna. Though since we are switching to
the Grimm’s
tales next i am excited and would be pleased to interact in class more. That
aside Eva Luna had several different traits that i was fond of, I liked how
some of the story was told through Eva’s first person view; it made it easier to follow. I also
liked the fast movement that the story provided, the Characters would be moving
at a fast pace and always switching settings. Nobody would be in one place long
and i feel thats what attributed to Eva’s story telling skills. Her wisdom she gained from bouncing
from place to place and being exposed to different settings I believe aided her
story telling because of the things she’s done and seen. I really had no interest in Eva’s love interest in the story, though
i do feel like her and Rolf are good for each other and they work the best out
of the other couple guys she had relationships with. All in all the story was
okay and not my cup of tea. I didn't really bring me in or grab my attention
but it was an okay book.
