In the first chapter of "Good Omens" titled "In the beginning," readers meet the two lead protagonists: Aziraphale, an angel, and Crowley, a demon. The chapter explores their contrasting views as agents of good and evil. It briefly touches upon the creation of the universe and Adam and Eve's story, leading Aziraphale and Crowley to question divine decisions.

The chapter "Eleven years ago" introduces new characters like Mr. and Mrs. Young, the Antichrist, Scarlett, Sister Mary, Mr. White, Warlock, and Sable. It focuses on the birth of the Antichrist, who is mistakenly switched with another baby, marking the beginning of the end. This chapter reveals the complex relationships between the characters and their roles in the story.

Challenging- This book includes language level C1 words,
therefore some words need to be looked up to fully understand the meaning of the text, but on the other hand the language becomes more colorful, because some of these words have a very specific meaning and describe in bigger detail.

Dramatizing- A lot of plots in this book seem exaggerated and animated by connecting different character stories, but on the other hand, it makes the story authentic and eccentric.

Complex- These chapters include a lot of side stories, details and new characters which makes it harder to follow the storyline.

Vacillating-The relationship between the main leads is unstable and constantly changing. The topics of the story are very diverse and include a lot of historical and political events, as well as controversial topics, for example, astrology.

Pleasant- the writing is quick-witted and humorous and also includes interesting topics.

In both chapters, we learn that Aziraphale and Crowley are not as different as they seem, despite their contrasting roles. Crowley, while being a demon, enjoys human pleasures and tries to blend into human society, gradually distancing himself from evil acts. He changes his name from Crawly to Crowley to sound more human-like. Meanwhile, Aziraphale is cautious about the upbringing of the Antichrist as it could threaten Heaven and the things he loves. These revelations add complexity to the characters and their motivations.

"You're saying the child isn't evil of itself?" he said slowly. 32 "Potentially evil. Potentially good, too, I suppose. Just this huge powerful potentiality, waiting to be shaped," said Crowley. He shrugged. "Anyway, why're we talking about this good and evil? They're just names for sides. We know that." "I suppose it's got to be worth a try," said the angel.
Crowley nodded encouragingly. "Agreed?" said the demon, holding out his hand.
This dialogue between Aziraphale and Crowley reaches a shared understanding that a being's true nature is shaped by external influences and surroundings, rather than simply being determined by birth or inherent traits. They find common ground in their love for humans and make a joint decision to work together in an effort to save the human world.

1. "He'd been an angel once. He hadn't meant to Fall. He'd just hung around with the wrong people."
This phrase delves into Crowley's background, highlighting that he never desired or intended to embrace evil. It echoes the famous quote, "you are who you hang out with," emphasizing that the people we associate ourselves with have a significant impact on our lives and choices.

2. "Makes you wonder what He's really planning."
This phrase indicates that Crowley is questioning the unpredictable decisions made by God.

3. "Funny thing is," said Crawly, "I keep wondering whether the apple thing wasn't the right thing to do, as well. A demon can get into real trouble, doing the right thing." He nudged the angel. "Funny if we both got it wrong, eh? Funny if I did the good thing and you did the bad one, eh?"
It is indeed intriguing how both characters, Aziraphale and Crowley, ironically question each other's actions and choices. This dynamic demonstrates that even beings traditionally associated with either good or evil are not confined to solely performing acts of virtue or wickedness. It highlights the complexity of their characters and the capacity for shades of gray within their nature.

4. You can't start someone off in a muddy shack in the middle of a war zone and expect them to do as well as someone born in a -castle.
This phrase can be applied to the existing hierarchical structures present in our society. It acknowledges that individuals have varying opportunities and challenges based on factors such as birth and access to material resources. While it is possible for individuals without these privileges to succeed through hard work, the path to success is often much more challenging when facing systemic disadvantages. It recognizes the disparities that exist and the additional obstacles that must be overcome for those starting from a less advantageous position.

5. "Oh, he did his best to make their short lives miserable, because that was his job, but nothing he could think up was half as bad as the stuff they thought up themselves. They seemed to have a talent for it. It was built into the design, somehow".
This phrase highlights a characteristic of human nature - our tendency to act impulsively based on emotions. It suggests that such impulsive decisions are often made without careful consideration, leading to negative outcomes more often than not. It underscores the idea that our emotional responses can sometimes cloud our judgment and result in less favorable results.

In "Good Omens," Crowley and Aziraphale frequently discuss fate and the "Ineffable Plan," and the storyline can shift in different directions based on their actions. This concept mirrors our own lives, where our fate is influenced by the choices we make. For instance, humans have caused climate change, but we also have the power to address it through collective action. Similarly, your own fate after graduation can be shaped by your motivation and actions, leading to different outcomes.

At the end of the chapter, a new character named Red is introduced, representing war. In my opinion, Red seems to be a shallow character who defines herself solely based on her assigned tasks and symbolic representation.

On the other hand, Anathema comes across as a more relatable character due to her emotional side and the everyday difficulties she faces. She is afraid of letting down Agnes and the potential consequences that may follow. I feel sorry for Anathema because since childhood, she has been told who she is and what she should achieve, lacking personal freedom and burdened by the emotional weight of her obligations.

Meanwhile, Crowley and Aziraphale are slowly breaking away from others' expectations and their previously held beliefs. They are beginning to question and redefine their own identities and roles.

The authors aim to build anticipation in the readers for the moment when both protagonists eventually locate the Antichrist. By introducing new characters, the authors distinctly portray them as either good or bad. In contrast, Crowley and Aziraphale are undergoing a transformation in their traditional roles, defying the expectations placed upon them. They begin to reveal previously undiscovered aspects of their personalities. Crowley displays a surprising lack of cruelty and ruthlessness, while Aziraphale demonstrates his alignment with Crowley's decisions by allowing him to carry out the necessary "bad" deeds for their mission. This shift sets them apart from the other characters who are generally perceived as exclusively good or bad.

"Besides, some of the old-style Satanists tended, in fact, to be quite nice people. They mouthed the words and went through the motions, just like the people they thought of as their opposite numbers, and then went home and lived lives of mild unassuming mediocrity for the rest of the week with never an unusually evil thought in their heads."
"Turklāt daži no vecā stila sātanistiem patiesībā mēdza būt diezgan jauki cilvēki. Viņi izteica vārdus un gāja cauri kustībām, tāpat kā cilvēki, kurus viņi uzskatīja par saviem pretējiem skaitļiem, un pēc tam devās mājās un atlikušo nedēļu dzīvoja vieglas, nepretenciozas viduvējības dzīvē, galvā nedomājot neparasti ļaunu domu."

This chapter is quite chaotic with many events happening one after another. It was difficult to predict what would happen next as new characters were introduced and unexpected turns occurred. I had hoped that by the end of the chapter, Aziraphale would find the lost child using The Book of Predictions. However, the chapter concludes without providing specific information about the child's location. This leaves the reader curious and eager for more details and explanations in the upcoming chapters.

Both Crowley and Aziraphale face internal conflicts as they strive to achieve their respective goals, causing them to question their values and the traditional notions of good and evil. In the previous chapter, Crowley's decision to change his name reflects his desire to appear more human-like, while Aziraphale acknowledges that Crowley's actions are not always purely evil. Meanwhile, Aziraphale realizes that accomplishing his intended objective requires more than just being virtuous, leading him to rely on Crowley to carry out morally ambiguous tasks.

In my opinion, these conflicts are internal, as they deeply affect the values they have followed throughout their existence. Both characters experience emotional struggles due to societal expectations. They begin to question whether they are making independent choices or if their actions are predetermined for them.

In these chapters, the themes of fate, free will, and the nature of good and evil become more prominent. The characters, particularly Crowley and Aziraphale, start questioning their predetermined roles and the expectations placed upon them. They challenge the notion that they are inherently good or evil, and instead begin to show different sides of themselves. This exploration of themes deepens the complexity of the story and adds layers of philosophical and moral contemplation.

- Adam and the Them are reaching the age of puberty, which means they might be going through different stages of development. This could be the reason why Wensleydale is keen on dismissing talk of witches, while Pepper and Brian are more open to the idea. It's also natural for the boys to start feeling uncomfortable about engaging in physical fights with girls.
- Raven leaves the Burger Lord and gets into a waiting limo to go back to England. In the quarry, Adam tells his friends exciting stories about supernatural things he read in the New Aquarians magazine given to him by Anathema. He talks about UFOs, Atlantis, and how the government tries to keep these things hidden.

I didn't quite understand the romantic connection between Newt and Anathema. It felt odd that they decided to pursue a romantic relationship amidst all the chaos and destruction. To me, it seemed like the love story was hurriedly introduced, perhaps as an attempt to add a romantic subplot to the book. Furthermore, I struggled to grasp the significance of the plot to stop the end of the world. It appeared to be resolved too quickly and without much depth.

Adam hesitated. Then he decided to take the bull by the horns. "Look, 'scuse me for askin', if it's not a personal question, but are you a witch?" he said. Anathema narrowed her eyes. So much for Mrs. Henderson poking around.
"Some people might say so," she said. "Actually, I'm an occultist." "Oh. Well. That's all right, then," said Adam, cheering up. She looked him up and down. "You know what an occultist is, do you?" she said. "Oh, yes," said Adam confidently. "Well, so long as you're happier now," said Anathema. "Come on in. I could do with a drink myself. And ... Adam Young?"

In this dialogue, Adam takes the initiative to confront Anathema about the rumors and asks her a direct question about being a witch. Instead of reacting negatively, Anathema responds truthfully and shares her origins with him. Both characters feel comfortable and unthreatened by each other, leading to a longer conversation about conspiracies and supernatural phenomena. Adam's tone is cheerful and shy, while Anathema presents herself as honest and confident. This dialogue moves the story forward by deepening the connection between Adam and Anathema, opening up new possibilities for their relationship and potential collaborations in exploring the mysteries they discuss.

At the end of the chapters, my impression of the characters is a mixture of both positive and negative. The characters are complex and multifaceted, displaying both admirable and flawed qualities. Crowley and Aziraphale, for example, are starting to challenge their predefined roles and question the expectations placed upon them, which is a positive development. However, they also engage in morally ambiguous actions, which can be seen as negative. Similarly, other characters have their own strengths and weaknesses, making them realistically human. Overall, the impression is one of a diverse range of characters with varying shades of positive and negative attributes.
