--- Quote from: belbbmfan on December 06, 2006, 08:28:35 am ---This really shows how considerate Ellery is. He wants to reassure Ennis (no big deal to me), letting him know he's queer too. Of course, he doesn't want Ennis to go! ;D
Another considerate thing to do: he always senses when Ennis has had enough and changes the subject back to Pete or to Bill and Gene. No wonder they end up married in only a couple of months! *sigh*

*sigh* is right, lol.

Sometimes, I think like Ennis, wondering if what I say is useless information...
Anyhow, when I first started the reread yesterday, it was kinda hard. I wasn't sure if I really wanted to relive everything Ennis went through. I kinda just wanted to think about the happy stuff. But now, as I am 10 chapters in, it's better. The special moments wouldn't be the same without the more difficult times.

Yes, I know what you mean. The other day, I re read some chapters in Looking for Answers, and found myself crying as much as the first time I read it.

Ah, God, what a man, both in real life and as Ellery....
