“You came.”
“There’s nowhere in existence you could go that I wouldn’t find you, remember?” He drops his lips to the dirty, frayed, blood-spattered remains of my braid and kisses the top of my head.”

It's already 3 a.m. I should be sleeping, but here I am, literally sobbing in bed.

“Only a rider can be the vice commandant of Basgiath,” Tairn warns, and Solas lets out a sound that’s half roar, half shriek. “Without a dragon, you are no rider.”
Oh gods. My heart lurches, the beat rushing to a gallop”

Oh my heart yearns for Tairn, he's so protective of violet and andarna ☹️♥️

“Let’s get you clean and wrapped up.”
“You can’t go around killing cadets. You’re an officer now.”
“Watch me.”

😭✋🏻

“Because I only want you, Xaden.”
The words breach something within him, and he gives.
Finally.
Our mouths collide”

Just know i'm out here celebrating, blushing and kicking my feet 😭✋🏻 CUS FINALLY INDEED!

“You’re all fucking dead.” His voice is eerily calm and all the scarier for it.
Every head in the room turns.”

Every time Xaden shows up, my brain automatically queues up "SexyBack." But this scene? Oh, this is full-on "Daddy's Home" energy! 🙂‍↕️🤤

“Now get in the seat and actually hold on this time, or no one is going to believe that I’ve actually chosen you,” he growls.
“I still can’t believe you’ve chosen me”

This book has me tearing up over DRAGONS. They're so precious 😭 I want one for myself, and I'M ALREADY IN LOVE WITH THEIR BOND.

" Beautiful. Fucking. Asshole.
My breath catches and my body warms, the traitorous bitch. You are not attracted to toxic men, I remind myself, and yet, here I am, getting all attracted. I have been since the first second I saw him, if I feel like being honest."

YOU AND ME BOTH SISTER 😩 xaden the man that you areee

Not to brag but i'm about to start this series for the first time 😎

So you do know my name?”
“I believe I’ve used it before,” she replied...
“Only thrice,” he said, simply.
“You’ve been counting?”
“Fantasizing,” he corrected.”

A MAN THAT YEARNS IS A MAN THAT EARNS!!!

“I find you inconvenient, arrogant, and morally bankrupt”

I LOVE HER! enjoying this sooo far

Bestie is feeling sus...everyone's SUS!!! I got my theories cooking up

I blame heated rivalry for getting me hooked over hockey romances, it's like i need something to feel the void...

“So four dates, one kiss, and a breakup.”
“Four dates, one kiss, and a breakup,” she agreed.”

That's what they always saaaay 👀

"I had a bad day and you were the first person I called."

Me when i relate to her esp to this, give him hell allieeee!

GIRL, forget that list I need him on his knees begging for youuuuu!

Idk if i'm late but i finally caved in and i'm exciteeeeed! Also bc i promised myself i'll read this first before watching the series LMAO

“His eyes are lit up the way they always are whenever he talks about anything medical”

Oh i wonder why sis 😀😀😀😀 THE SIGNS ARE ALREADY RIGHT INFRONT OF YOU PLEASE

I'm sorry but it doesn't take two and two to feel suspicious about the guy 😭✋🏻

“Relearning you has been the best thing that’s ever happened to me.”

I'M SO EMOTIONAL 😭✋🏻

“Good morning! You have excellent taste in music. (And men.) I’m so glad we stayed in Morris. I believe in you! You can do anything you set your mind to and I know you will achieve all your dreams. You are, and will always be, the most beautiful person I’ve ever known.”

THE DEVELOPMENT OF THEIR LOVE WAAAH 😭 watching them fall in love all over again healed something in me.

I'm having a great time with the plot, the characters are genuinely so funny but the paragraph lengths are so annoying to read. Every page looks like it was written in one breath. Who approved this? 🥲

“...I can tell when you’re starting to disassociate, and it’s the most heartbreaking experience I’ve ever had. It’s nonstop. It keeps on happening. I try to bring you back to me every time you go to leave, off into your own head where I’m not allowed.”

sorry but i can relate to naomi esp when i'm disassociating

“So, the white roses and the “He’s just yelling at you because he knows you’re the best. Don’t let him get to you,” note that was on the hood of my car today wasn’t from you?” 🤭

“it’s that being in your twenties is arguably the most difficult time of your life. Everything you do in that decade forms what’s to come. And it feels as if you’re never doing the right thing or making the right decision.”

i love this 🥺

“I love you, the hand cupping her jaw, said.
I love you, the hot breath I was gasping for, said.
I love you, the desperate kiss I pressed against her lips, said.” 🥹🥹🥹🥹


Also i'm still not over Dorian's gift to her and how they spent their Christmas Eve

“Dorian in a suit. Dorian checking his watch. Dorian holding flowers. Holding peonies.

His presence strung me like a violin bow and kept me still as if I was captured by a haunting melody”

THIS IS SO PRECIOUS I'M ACTUALLY SAD AND JEALOUS 😭😭😭😭😭😭

“Dorian.” I glared at him.
“I like it when you say my name with your cute accent. It sounds better your way.” He smirked, and it was tumultuous.”

The way this book perfectly captured the cutesy, feel-good, kicking-my-feet-and-giggling energy I've been looking for ✋🏻🤩
