In my humble opinion, I did not mean for my comment to be mean, but an observation of reading the same thing only slightly changing wording. I thought this to be a classic definition of insanity, repeating the same thing over and over and expecting different results If the chapter was written for fun, was the story written for the author or for the reader. After the couple started a predictable sex routine, the explicit descriptions did nothing for the story. A brief synopsis would work just as well. If different people were involved, the description would be necessary. Several times I thought about stopping, and not reading. I liked the plot and continued reading. I decided to skip over the descriptions, treating them as filler words. Furthermore, I loved the characters, the twists and turns of the plot, and read to the end.

Did 90% of this chapter need to be repeated sex scenes? This was a quick chapter to read because I scrolled through it. Same thing over and over

Many humans are savage animals with killing on their mind for something they do not like or understand. These people are dictionary examples of sheeples. In the dictionary by the name sheeples, put their picture. Family are the worst with the moral high ground ignoring unwed pregnancy, divorces, drinking, partner abuse, and rape ate fine, just don't be gay. They say the bible says it is wrong, but everything else is okay!

I have a bad feeling about the power given to Yirgella and the changes he wants to make. Dr. Daystrom who tried imprinting human neural engrams on Star Trek Enterprise's computer and then killed 500 Starfleet personal. HAL 9000 from 2001: A Space Odyssey taking over the ship and people died. We shall see what we shall see.

Excellent reading, well written, kept my attention, and wondering what was going to happen next. The story prompted me to have several marathon readings to read the chapters. The story drew the reader in as if they were in the story and experiencing what Peter and Matthew were going through. The end of the story tied up lose ends. An additional story of picking Peter and Mathew's later life would be an excellent addition.

We had 400-layer chickens, 100 hogs, 125 beef cattle in two locations and 500 acres comprised of wheat, soybeans, corn, and sorghum, they were not used on the farm, they were used commercially. I lived in in southwest part of Spencer County in Indiana. There was one hired hand and usually 100 acres of soybeans planted after wheat as a double crop. I do not personally know of any females working on a farm, which included South Spencer school corporation. I know of no females in 4-H or FFA. There was no males and females sharing work. My two sisters knew how to walk across the road from the house to the machine sheds and back. Occasionally there was a hog or cow butchered and we received half, the rest was sold, and chickens. The hogs and cattle were bred on the farm, the chicken was bought. We worked with three other farmers and did custom baling and combining. During planting and harvesting, I worked after school, weekends, and during summer vacation. My day could be from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM. Animals had to be fed daily regardless of weather. I did not participate in school extracurricular activities and I was exhausted most of the times. I was not the only one, there were at least 10 males who also were worked like this. Cheap child labor comes to my mind.

I have a big problem with children being cheap slave labor for the two farms. Letting females have the hogs, beef cattle, and horses has never lived on a farm. Hogs are a very big challenge; they root, and are excellent escape artist. Beef cattle are big against any person. Being crushed between cattle or a wall or stampeded. Take 1,000-pound cow, a hoof on a human foot, and see the damage that can cause. Being kicked by cows is not a fun experience either. Is a child able to have their own gardens, plant flowers, taking care of and training other children. Letting males have milk cows, chickens, horses, haying, planting, cultivating, and harvesting is daunting for adults. Milking cows twice a day for 365 days a year regardless if you feel like doing so. Eggs have to be gathered every day. Hay, planting, cultivating, and harvest involve equipment that is unforgiving on who gets hurt. Losing fingers, arms, legs, and your life are very big dangers. What could possibly go wrong with children operating machinery? Having children (the more the merrier) for the farm is a thin vail for cheap slave labor. The more children the bigger the farms will grow. Is anything ever said about paying the children? They are going to be working 365 days a year and sometimes sun up to sun down in planting and harvesting seasons along with their other daily chores. Farming is demanding, dangerous, and unforgiving. It is nothing like the simplistic picture told in this story. I have been there, done that for 12 years through school. I did not have as much involvement when I went to university for 4 years. I had to live at home during university so I was still involved. Cheap child labor, which is why there are child labor laws.
