Heart-breaking and beautiful - everyone should read this.

4.5 really but I can’t do that on here (stupid).

Gifted by Freya several moons ago and fiiiinally getting round to reading it - can tell it’s going to destroy me

Nothing like a bit of holiday trash reading - this is so light and easy, I expect to finish in a day

Ciao

The fact that I’m going to start Fourth Wing after this is wild. #balance

“Samuel rode lightly on top of a book and he balanced happily among ideas the way a man rides white rapids in a canoe. But Tom got into a book, crawled and grovelled between the covers, tunnelled like a mole among the thoughts, and came up with the book all over his face and hands”.

I adore this book

“The lore has not died out of the world, and you will still find people who believe that soup will cure any hurt or illness” Amen to that

A re-read to ease myself back into the reading groove - grateful to have never studied (and thus ruined) this at school (à la of mice and men :/)

Not hugely into the war parts (lol) but I am enjoying… am I … a romantasy girl? Next up fourth wing, I guess, it would only be right.

This is NOT going to end well

It’s 4.5 - I can’t give it 5 because it was written by a man and I just don’t think he can totally GET love and yearning. Soz not soz

I fear this is not going to end well

Really enjoying this one

The fact this is taking me so long to read is pretty telling I think - just want it done now. I will finish it today, holding myself accountable

I’ve got a week off work and I’ve finally picked up a goddamn book. Borrowed this one from Amber. So far, odd but intriguing.

A one day jobby for sure - I want to know what happens

Not adoring like I thought I would - it’s not old timey feeling enough for my liking :/ really not a fan of the references to ‘the pandemic’ either - is that Covid ???? We don’t talk of that.

Bit of an odd story. Don’t love the jumping back and forth either. Let’s see where it goes

I wonder if Richard ever washes his bedsheets/ cleans his room. I suspect not

Honestly would quite like to just finish this now

Let book 2 commence 🙏🏼

What on earth is going on

Holding self accountable by adding here. This is book one of 2025.

Views so far: Very long sentences.

Well well well

Actually started this yday. Not very well written imo, but gripping nonetheless - I think I’ve already guessed the twist but let’s see

I unwittingly bought someone's GCSE/A level copy of this from a charity shop) and it's got their notes on so many bloody pages. Really need a clean copy, I feel like I’m at school again. I love this book and this is upsetting

What am I supposed to do with my time now

It’s all coming back to me - never want it to end

An absolute hug of a book - my perfect park read - I will devour in a matter of days. It’s been long enough since I last read it that I actually can’t remember exactly what happens - feeling extreme excitement.

Also RIP to my queen Maeve, you would have loved brat summer 💚

Jesus wept
2.5 stars max

Twin towers mentioned - unexpected - I think I know where this is going
