reading this book’s 1 star reviews is more entertaining than the book itself. the writing is still repetitive, everything about the world building is mostly unoriginal but I would rather die than to throw in the towel. I die every time I remember this travesty (among her other books) has made Maas extremely wealthy :,)

the world building is pretty interesting which is what’s keeping me going, everything else is just subpar. the romance reads like fanfiction i would’ve gone crazy for when i was like 12. some of romantic scenes are laughable, borderline cringeworthy. i’m only 47% in but i hope the writing improves somehow so i can read the next book :)

Had I been born in the 19th century Lord Henry would’ve probably been one of my toxic ex’s 🫩 Exhausting chap.

a writer’s imagination+anxiety, possibly worse combo than aries+taurus couple

Going to try to read 10 pages of this every day until I finish this. Makes me laugh out of loud with some stories, but some others make me feel a bit lost and confused. Lesson N1: don’t try to make sense of what goes through an alcoholic, depraved poet’s mind.

gut-wrenching at times, breath-taking always. thoroughly enjoying this, and I can proudly say this has taken me out of my reading slump.

i’m trying so hard to finish this but it’s so upsettingly boring. 😭

i’m gonna try hard to finish this shit 💔 (it’s been a year)

Stunning, gripping, a breeze of fresh air.
