Reading Notes: Pages 325-373
Important Notes and Thoughts:
- Happy that Lightning Tongue and Thunder Tooth get killed. I didn't like them ever since they tried to fool Sita.
- The fighting scenes definitely make reading this part of the book a lot more exciting. I like being able to imagine Ravana and Rama fighting and watching Rama slay off Ravana's head but it simultaneously growing back
- Ravana is dead. Rama wins
- The letter from Ravana to Rama is definitely a plot twist. It makes me happy that Buck added that in there. It shows Ravana's true character. If only that letter had arrived earlier...
- It's great to see how supportive Vibishana and Hanuman and Jambavan are of Rama. They fly out for his coronation
- I think that Baratha's suicide threat is kind of extreme. What if Rama gets stuck somewhere and doesn't make it in time? Would Baratha really just kill himself and leave his city King-less?
