Status Updates From A Light in the Dark (Banish...

Almost 40% in and I feel like I’ve learned more about spindles, thread and whorls and wool than anything else. After the beginning I was expecting more action. 🤷🏾‍♀️

Ok last update guys lol. But the FMC’s response and reaction to the revelation that Beast (MMC ) ignored a girl’s rape and refused to help her afterwards made me not like her. She basically told the girl’s mother to stop torturing beast over it and grieve properly on her own. Like bitch Beast is lucky the witch didn’t kill his ass like she did his friends cause he sure deserved it 🙄

“ That idiot was sixteen , Naja. A kid, and kids do stupid, selfish shit all the time. “

The FMC’s response to seeing a flash back of the MMC pretending not to hear a girl’s rape and throwing away her letter asking him to be a witness in court for her…………😐

I’m not trying to be a hater but the author made the FMC so understanding and reasonable to the point she doesn’t feel like a real character 😅

Beast is lowkey awful lmao

So what Beast did ( or better yet what he didn’t do ) that resulted in his centuries long punishment has been revealed and uh…….I know he was young when it happened, and he did say he deserved it many times before this point, but if I thought he was pathetic before man oh man is he pathetic now. I would be so turned off if I was the FMC 😐

I have 90 pages left and I really don’t feel like reading in general right now I’m at the finish line idk what’s wrong with me 😭

The smut is so detailed omg 🌝

I stopped reading for like a month but I’m back lmao. I’m getting tired of the therapist like dialogue, nobody talks like this in real life

I’m really liking this book so far I really am but I think the author made Beast a little TOO sensitive/wimpy he could be a tad bit more ferocious in my opinion. I’m getting a bit tired of seeing Claire coddle him like he’s her child 😬

The Gaston of the story just made his appearance 🙄

Claire has it BAD

Claire told herself she would be more professional with Beast and then hugs him as soon as she gets back to the Manor lol I love it

“ She thought that just because she had a fancy badge and had taken some classes that she could actually help someone like him ? It was laughable “

I agree with his thinking. I think I’m seeing a hint of a savior complex in Claire through her interactions with Beast. She’s only known him a day and she’s trying to solve all his problems. Like get to know him FIRST !! I see why he’s annoyed 😅

“ He yearned to find someone who would prove that they cared for him and wanted to take care of him, and would treat his heart like the fragile thing that it was “

OMG BEAST IS SO SWEET 💕😭😭

Not a magic infused wet dream lol. This book is so fun !

Not to be a negative Nancy, but if I have to read another paragraph that includes the phrase “ She smiled “ , “ she grinned “ or “ she laughed “ I’m going to lose my mind 🫩

“ She hoped she would be able to coax him into blushing like that more. It made something her purr… “

Oh my 🙊

Claire ( Fmc ) is so nice and reasonable I hope she stays that way 😭

Damn what did Beast do to suffer like THIS 😭😭

Another dual p.o.v romance . It’s not the worst thing in the world but it takes away the mysteriousness of the plot and MMC that the book has set up 😭

I heard this was similar to beauty and the beast but so far it’s reminding me of the anime Fairy Tail ( complimentary )
