i have been in this exact position before omfg LOLLLL

having a Lot of thoughts and ur not allowed 2 know any of them!!! (i bet u can make a pretty educated guess, tho)

yall it has to be at least half the book atp i need a BREAK.

they got me...been listening mostly in the car. hadn't expected to cry (multiple times) but here we are

right. forgot what it felt like to read this, given the Everything about the way i have learned to process it all

KENFDALL ROY MENTIONED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!SUCCESSION YOU WILL ALWAYS BE FAMOUS YOU WILL NEVER EVER DIE

genuinely so insane that the blurb insists "you'll root for her, even as you gasp in disbelief." ...no tf i will NOT root for this girl!!!! she sucks!!!!! i can think of a few narratively satisfying endings but i do not want her to end up satisfied, i'll say that much

"some of the other kids made fun of this, but i was transfixed. i couldn't fathom what it must feel like to be the center of an adult's universe like that."

OUGH,,

ok yall they got me. im reading heated rivalry but i can't add it yet bc i'm at work and i don't want *that* cover on my screen but trust. you will be hearing from me...INSANE way to open #btw

taking a quick break to speed thru a libby book 2 expire soon...will return shortly!

oh. alright. didn't really expect this one to make me cry, to be honest

WAOW

To Thaw Towards Her .

been incredibly difficult to focus recently. not the fault of the book; i'm enjoying it SO much and desperately want to read it...brain has other plans for me :/

i already keep wanting to quote this but can't yet. oh man you guys prk is so back. engaging nonfic is so freaking back.

btw...started a few days ago at work...i simply do not know how to act. i care about these two so much :']]] see what happens when u write compelling characters alongside ur romance...it makes ur readers care!!! very much, in fact!!! so much!!!!

SO freaking jazzed to have been allowed the privilege that is this arc. wowowowowow it's a good thing i have the weekend off bc i find it hard to believe i'll be doing anything until i finish this

i feel like it should be known that today i am thinking of ivan karamazov very much. he's like a brother to me; i miss him dearly. perhaps a reread toward the end of the year...who's to say. regardless, mourning what we could've had if not for dostoy's epilepsy :(

ah, i was hoping tumblr would come up. #iwasthere

additionally--just learned something new about succession. that doesn't happen very often. thank you, elle reeve, for this small gift.

"someone who's only escape was through the internet . . ."

guys, Please. not the biggest of deals, but i am exhausted by the misuse of contractions vs. possessives. i can handle it in my day to day but from a published author, i do expect better.

i will say...interesting to be reading this prologue on 1/6, 5 years later.

"astonishment at the way this adult was willing to debase himself to ruin our night"

well. yeah

forgot to update i finished tsoa back in october, needed to clean out currently reading. hoping to have max 3 going at a time this year--wish luck

i actually am literally feeling so ill listening to this i wanna stop u are not tasteful people

BRUH. you'd think an AUTHOR would be able to accurately define the word the entirety of your plot hinges on. that is not what limerence is thank u! eughhghghhghhghjh i will finish this thing despite it all. imagining them both as girls until further notice

started this on the drive yday and unfortunately must finish...kinda pmo but not irredeemable

"she would be Daughter forever, feet on the dashboard, lollipop stashed in one cheek, waiting for the doors of the bank to swing open and spit out the correct mother: hers."

"a person does not know if her mother likes her." well...
