The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller
Your Knife, My Heart by K.M. Moronova
"Well, that was disappointing.

This book felt like a mash up of a bunch of movies I’ve watched over the last few years. Prisoners being thrown together and trained to become part of a special, deadly military team? How very Suicide Squad. There’s defi" Read more of this review »

Djamilla M. is 43% done with Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents: "Emotional parents are run by their feelings, swinging between overinvolvement and abrupt withdrawal. They are prone to frightening instability and unpredictability. Overwhelmed by anxiety, they rely on others to stabilize them. They treat small upsets like the end of the world and see other people as either rescuers or abandoners." @ my mom

Really appreciate having some aro-ace rep in Philippine literature. I do think parts of the book could've been edited to be a bit more readable, and the characters could've been more... well, interesting. I couldn't really connect to either of the tw ...more

Sohn Won-Pyung
“Ordinary . . .” I mumbled. To be like others. To be ordinary without having experienced terrible ordeals. To go to school, graduate, and if lucky, go to college and get an okay job and meet a woman I like and get married and have kids . . . things like that. Put differently, to not stand out.”
Won-pyung Sohn, Almond

Anne Carson
“All myth is an enriched pattern,
a two-faced proposition,
allowing its operator to say one thing and mean another, to lead a double life.
Hence the notion found early in ancient thought that all poets are liars.
And from the true lies of poetry
trickled out a question.

What really connects words and things?”
Anne Carson, The Beauty of the Husband: A Fictional Essay in 29 Tangos

T.J. Klune
“We should always make time for the things we like. If we don't, we might forget how to be happy.”
T.J. Klune, The House in the Cerulean Sea

T.J. Klune
“We get trapped in our own little bubbles, and even though the world is a wide and mysterious place, our bubbles keep us safe from that. To our detriment.” She sighed. “But it’s so easy because there’s something soothing about routine. Day in and day out, it’s always the same. When we’re shaken from that, when that bubble bursts, it can be hard to understand all that we’ve missed.”
T.J. Klune, The House in the Cerulean Sea

Nina Varela
“If the universe were static, I could stand anywhere in this world and I swear my line of sight would end on you. I swear I'd find you in the dark.”
Nina Varela, Iron Heart
