thoughts while rereading

p12: slay miss minton 👑 a whole trunk full of books 📚
p153: oh miss minton
was the maid that helped bernard
, that’s how finn knows her!
p167: i’m not sure i fully picked up on this before, but if the crows no longer care about getting finn then that means he probably could’ve just waited them out and carried on with his expedition after they left
p188: well done everyone, exemplary work. nice touch gifting finn back his dad’s watch
p232: i know what happens,
he keels over and dies
p296: SLAY
