And now we have witch-girl's name; Doctor Silva. Well doc, I'm quite suspicious of you and will be watching you with great interest.

I'm kinda happy that decapitation, in a way, was indeed part of this chapter!

The Soulkeepers Chapter 10: A Possible Life Sentence
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Punishment is obviously coming Jacob's way.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
The first sentence got a chuckle out of me.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Hmmm. I think that after breaking a glass cabinet and reaching in bare skinned would warrant stitches instead of simply bandaging it.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Repairing and "replacing" dolls is part of the punishment, which is fair.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
And to do garden work for Dr. Silva (aka witch-girl). That one, under light of my suspicions, is not as fair. However, I do see and understand John's POV.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Okay, so Dr. Silva's a professor of Ethnobotany.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Ethnobotany
noun
the scientific study of the usage of plants in different cultures.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Unexplained attraction to someone? While you're a teenager? There's only one answer to this…. Fairy godparents!
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Alrighty now. So the cost to repair the window is $1k. Jacob is being paid by Dr. Silva $7 per hour. That's approximately 143 hours of work. He'll have to work for her for about a week to earn the $1k.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Dr. Abigail Silva. Professor, doctor, Ethnobotanist, and witch…. She's definitely an impressive character.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
John confessing to knowing Dr. Silva's grandmother and saying that she too was a good looking woman makes me uncomfortable.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
You know something… I'm starting to like John. How he handles things, that is.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Wait. So sitting in a rocking chair with your feet above your head isn't the correct way to sit? I've been doing it wrong!!! 🤣
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
(Hmmm…. Back to Dracula which has 27 chapters, or to continue reading The Soulkeepers which is 45 chapters long?)
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
(Still don't like that I still don't know where The Soulkeepers title comes from. Generally speaking it isn't good if the reader doesn't understand the book's title within reading the first few chapters. As a bibliophile myself that can be irritating and possibly lead to the reader to make the decision to stop reading the book in question. Fortunately for the author his characters are interesting enough to keep me wanting to read this. I need to know whether or not Jacob will be reunited with his mom, answers to multiple questions that I have, and of course where the freaking title comes from!)

(I updated the very first post to address how I'm going to handle my paperback/hardcover books.)

Dracula Chapter 11
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
I said it before, and I'll say it again… garlic is good for you!
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Lucy being afraid to sleep, yet now willing to thanks to garlic.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Mrs. Westenra messed up by removing that garlic and opening the window…. She obviously didn't understand what all that garlic was for, so I can't exactly blame her.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Oof for VH feeling despair, and understandably so.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Yet another transfusion, this time from VH. I like that he took time to tell Mrs. Westenra that the garlic was for "medicinal purposes."
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
I assume that VH has to go back to Amsterdam for work reasons.
Darn those bats for trying to get in!
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Escaped wolf on the loose? Not sure what this has to do with anything at the moment.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Uh… Does this Thomas Bilder hit the animals in his care, drug them via "tea", and scratch them behind the ears? So far I'm confused by this section.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Oh, okay. "scratch my ear(s)" is another way to say "to question." I was just having a dumb moment. Lol
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Ah, Count Dracula be involved with the wolf. Should've known!
