From chapter 6,7, I found lots of interesting facts about Lyra and her parents. We can notice all of the whole "real story" about her parents, who is Lord Asriel, father, and Mrs.Coulter,mother.
She also finds out that the Gyptians have been watching her ever since she was born, and John Faa, who is the lord of the western Gyptians, is the person who tells the true story of her mother and father.
According to the story until chapter 6, I've guessed there must be some kind of relationship between Lord Asriel and Lyra. I realized that in mind when she was caught by him in the wardrobe, because even though he twisted her arms and gave a pain to Lyra, she didn't even resist and endured her pain. For this reason, actually I wasn't so surprised that Lord Asriel was Lyra's father. However, I never thought of Mrs.Coulter as her mother. It was a kind of reversal part of the story for me.
Also, I was surprised that there was a particular person, who worked in the kitchen in Jordan College, had been looking every single thing that Lyra was doing ever since she was born. When I read that part, I imagined how Lyra would be feeling at that moment. If I were Lyra, I would be so scary and feel a thrill of horror or something like that. From these chapter, it was so interesting to know about the true story about Lyra's family and the story, and I am expecting what will happen to Lyra with the althiometer.

Indeed, it was very surprising that Lord Asriel and Mrs. Coulter are Lyra's parents. Most surprising for me is that they both follow completely different targets: for Lyra and for their lives.
I think Lyra should be proud that someone was looking after her to protect her if would be neccessary.
Lyra has sad story about her parents, but she is very strong even though she is still a child. We can see how she is geeting an adult well thru this book. That is my favorite point to TGC.
