BOOK ONE: Part 1, Chapters 6-8

Chapters 6-7
So...how did bear fighting come into play so quickly? I'm not saying I don't like it, it's just a bit off-setting to go from a well to do party to bear killing. Perhaps that's what Tolstoy wanted. 
The upcoming battle between Pierre and Prince Vasili is intriguing... I just hope that if Pierre gets the inheritance that he wont send his serfs off to war. He seems like the kind of guy that might do that. 

Chapter 8
I feel bad for Nicholas...although Boris was pretty funny about the whole Mimi thing. Boris's joke reminded me of something J.M. Barrie would come up with.
