julius hat mich sehr gestresst
als würde er tim nicht seit 6 bpchern kennen. da muss er doch wissen dass tim auf jeden fall in die kuppel gegangen wäre wenns ihm gut ginge
aber hey die szene in der richard tim auf den schwanz tritt an die konnt ich mich noch erinnern. hab mich die ganze zeit gefragt in welchem buch das vorkommt

Again, similar to my review for #5, it almost seems like Anne is being put down a lot as opposed to George who is a boy and is amazing and stuff like that. I am keeping an open mind in that she is the youngest and siblings tease each other a lot, but something feels off.

I also have some feelings about how kids who aren't the famous five are treated. Edgar was called pathetic, but Nobby and (kid from this book) were considered pitiful/need a break. Maybe because Edgar did make use of his situation and tease them like a lot?

Also, Alf the fisherman's boy from previous books has been renamed to James. Was super disconcerting for me, and I wondered if because it's a kid's book, they thought no one would notice.

Revisiting my all time favorite series as a child. Rereading them as an adult not only takes just an hour or two, but it is also a nice 'breather' from your day.
