Status Updates From The Daylight Gate

Afterthoughts pt.13:

Aaaaand, yeah. That’s about all I can think to yap about for now.
Imma go take a nap and let allat sink in a little.
I’ll give the book a 4.5/5 for the ragebait and other things — overall highly enjoyed The Daylight Gate by Jeanette Winterson :)

Afterthoughts pt.12:

Those of the few highlight I can think of off the top of my head but, seriously, there are some really beautiful, haunting, and occasionally horrible moments in this book I’d like to return back to at some point. But I’ve marked them all out both here and in the physical book so feel free to go look whenever you fancy it.

Afterthoughts pt.11:

Fav parts pt.3:

Also, “He would love her if she were a wolf that tore out his heart.” ~ page 190. Beautiful line.

Afterthoughts pt.10:

Fav parts pt.2:

And the part where Kit visits the brothel where Alice used to stay with Elizabeth. I liked his response of, “I am in love with someone.” ~ page 189. Just found that really sweet, and I particularly liked how Alice and Elizabeth’s happiest memories haunted the place, however that works. Really really loved that. ~ page 197

Afterthoughts pt.9:

Also, also — some of my favourite parts:
“I think we are worlds compressed into human form.” ~ page 72. That’s gonna stick with me for a while.

Continue in next part ~
