i've decided after watching saltburn that i must revisit!

i'm enjoying so far but i do not think i will finish it by the new year 😭 i have a physical copy and it is huge and hard to lug around, unlike my kindle

devouring this. if i had this 3/4 years ago when i was obsessed with gothic horror novels and lesbian vampires... would've been over for everyone

so once i actually started reading this, i'm hooked. it's been a while since i've read a book this long and not felt like it was a slog to get through

sorry for not live laugh loving on Goodreads more, c*llege finals…. didn’t destroy me

i was asked what author i have the most of on my physical shelves and i felt morally obligated to answer that it was timothy zahn (star wars (thrawn) book writer)

idk why i didn't read this wayyyy sooner

sometimes you will read a book that resonates but is also painful to read but you need/want to read it at the same time

not at all complaining (actually very happy about this!), but i've noticed a sudden interest in clarice lispector. i feel like it's because her style has inspired a lot of current literary fiction. i wish i could read portuguese fluently enough to read her original writing. one day

i'm trying to read more in spanish but why is it easier to get english translations of things in spanish than it is to find the original version 😭

setting my tbr priorities straight (i must reread all thrawn novels and comics in existence (and the ahsoka novel) before the ahsoka series comes out even though i have a feeling i won't like it)

If I didn't know who was narrating this book already, I'd be deeply confused

i'm so proud of myself for listening to this much of an audiobook 💪

i'm hooked. i've realized the only way i can do audiobooks is to simultaneously also be doing something else

i didn't realize how long this was... definitely some liberal feminism but not as bad as i thought

i'm going to pretend i haven't read this multiple times and i swear this time i will actually read all the ascendancy novels i swear

I've been very distracted by other things unfortunately
