so this is my second to last reading diary. I can not believe how fast this semester has went by.
as i was reading Lang's European Fairy Tales I I had many different thoughts cross my mind. I think my favorite parts of this section was The Voice of Death. this story i just so...i dont know how else to say it but creepy. this was my favorite story that i think i have read in this class. if you have read my other reading diary posts you will see that i like stories that with different levels to it and this story had just that. the first thing that this story had was a good lesson that i thought was money cant buy you everything. the second thing that this story had was a very good story. i love the idea of a voice calling people and they can not refuse it no matter how hard they try they still end up doing what it asks. this idea just really fascinates me but it also really scares me. obviously the voice represents death. I think the story does a good job illustrating how no matter what you or what you have you can not stop death. It is something that we all must face even if we do not know what it is it will find us. ( wow that was a little dark for me )
