If i was sophie 2
Im going to start when Sophie is at the cabin. The book was completely realistic up until now. Or it still is, i don't know. All i know is, if i looked in the mirror and watched myself blink, i would have told somebody about and bing bang boop, i would be at therapy or in a ward being prepared to get labotomized. If i was Sophie i would not have come to the conclusion so quickly that the girl in the mirror winked. As i type, im freaking myself out, its like a whole new dimension inside the mirror, maybe like an evil twin. Like in that movie, mirrors, what ever the person does in the mirror, you do, so it could try to kill her. but maybe the new dimension is like, where every decision is the opposite. Done rambling. So i would have convinced myself in the next 30 seconds that i forgot that i winked and thought i saw it. Your mind can play tricks on you all the time and Sophie has been reading philosophers talking about how your senses are not reliable all the time. But maybe since she had just finished her Aristotle bender, she was hyped up on everything is reality and we believe everything we perceive with our senses. I do see that the author is relating Sophie's unexplainable experiences with how the Philosophers must have felt when they tried to explain their ideas to the people of the time. But seeing myself wink would be pushing it for me.
