Status Updates From Ein Kleid aus Seide und Ste...

La forma en que la historia es contada se siente irreal. No es la fantasia que suelo consumir, pero me gusta. Aunque no siento que vaya a cambiarme la vida.

“Day after day and night after night, she spun the dawn and unraveled the dusk.” you don’t even wanna know the sound i made just now

women in male dominated fields !!!

um. are they kissing while riding separate horses?

again on the direct exclamation, i’ve collected more:
“—tears of the moon!”
“—so much water!”
“—I could knit!”

dont use an em dash and break us out of the story just for some stupid shit. it’s such a lazy way to write surprise. you can convey awe by, idk, describing the the body of water&how bit it seems, or by how the character *feels* about being able to knit again.

i will keep reading tho.

“I froze. Let out a sharp breath.” “I let go. Released everything.” “I pinched my eyes shut, mustered a scowl.”
somebody teach elizabeth lim when to use a comma and when to say ‘and’

i’m having so much trouble understanding why i like this book. the writing is like. it’s not bad but it’s also not great. it leaves a little to be desired and the pacing is horrendous. in 200 pages we have gone from a poor port town, to losing family in the war, to competing in three sewing trials, to becoming imperial tailor, to travelling through the country & being stuck in the desert. it’s good but wow

No recordaba cual era la trama del libro, tenía mas de un año en el librero, pero sin duda alguna me ha sorprendido. La forma de escribir de la autora es cautivadora y su protagonista brilla por si sola.

No sé a donde va la historia, pero por el momento me está gustando.

"nie bede szczesliwa jesli ciebie nie bedzie obok" girllll, thats not romatic, thats fucking over-co-dependence
