Books XII-XVIII

Finished the reading once more. I'm really happy that we FINALLY got off Ulysses' story. As much as I love Ulysses, I'm happy to see that Telemachus and him met up. After a tearful reunion, of course. Speaking of which, I swear every single person in this book spends all day crying. Penelope's always crying. Ulysses and his crew cry at least a dozen times during the adventure. Telemachus is always crying. He cries even more when he meets up with his dad. EVERYONE CRIES!!!!!!
But anyways. I was somewhat disappointed that the confrontation with the suitors lying in ambush amounted to... well nothing really. It just kind of dissipated into thin air. That great cliffhanger, that we had to suffer READ through half the book for just went poof. Which makes me sad.
BUT I did find something that made me happy, or at least somewhat amused. You know how EVERY SINGLE DAWN it starts with "When the child of morning, rosy-fingered Dawn appeared"? Well I found somewhere were it didn't say that. While I can't seem to find it now (apparently it didn't hit me until AFTER I closed the book...?) I know that somewhere, it said "When dawn broke". That's right. Not even a capital on dawn. I was impressed.
Finally, my last rant of the day was with the swineherd, Eumaeus. Normally, it would just say "Eumaeus said" or whatever. But every once in a while, usually at the start of a paragraph, it says "Then you said, O swineherd Eumaeus."... Wait... what? Is the narrator talking to ME? Am I Eumaeus? I know it's no one else talking to him, since there's no quotations or anything. He's just, you know, famous and whatnot. I just hope it doesn't show up too much more. Because it bugs me more than dawn.
