When the question was asked "did you pay much attention to the song lyrics before this chapter?" my answer is: No I haven’t. But since I know the author and her songwriting skills I found myself wondering what the deal with the lyrics was, what was its connection is to the novel, while seeing the author herself in the lyrics…

The song lyrics are a third POV. ;-)
They are indeed!
They're provocative and mysterious, and very Erik.
I'm just amazed and envious that this Muse came to you with those lyrics, while I stand on the side of the road, waving, saying Me! Me! Me! I'll take some o' that inspiration!
I remember dreading a certain part of the story, because I knew that once it was written, the lyrics would stop. And they did. I grieved.
Ohhhhh yes.
The sudden silence.
Profound Silence
If anyone says not enough action is in this book, they just don't get how much can go on in the space of fifteen minutes of silence. For action to CEASE is in itself a notable action.
Alas. I find myself very alone, as a reader, and wishing for people to talk books with. The way we'd talk about our cousins, our co-workers, our sisters, our neighbors. Because that what fictional characters are - our neighbors, in the guise of fiction!
(Well, Charles may be a fairy tale, but that is NOT a complaint.) :)
