      I cannot get over the fact that pretty much everyone in this book has more traditionally SFF name - which is to say, a made up name, or at least an unusual one, as per Idaho and Wellington - except for the two protagonists, who are Paul and Jessica. IT'S SO JARRING.

      Love how Jessica's inner monologue is suddenly 'oh bee tee dubs I'm pregnant and have known for weeks and also it's a girl," like this isn't something that would've reasonably crossed her mind before this point.

      There's such a cool idea at the heart of this book - I get why so many people love it - but Herbert just cannot resist having his characters *constantly* explaining their motives and reasoning to the reader and to each other, and it's frustrating as hell.

      What it makes me think is that Herbert was, whether consciously or not, dismissive of the intelligence of his readers - that he thought he was being So Very Smort about every little thing that he HAD to explain it, or no one would get it, and therefore not KNOW he was Smort.

      I mean he is the villain and an aristocrat I’d be more surprised if he understood consent

      oh yeah, I'm not miffed by that so much as the need to have a gross gay rapey villain in the first place

          Yeah, the Baron being the only gay character in the book really puts Herberts view on homosexuality into question. Interestingly when I read the book at 16 I only ended up remembering the pedophilia and rape didn’t even remember his sexuality till folks started talking about Dune
