ooooh love makes monsters of us all mmm

I just love how vampires inherently bisexual (I mean if you’re going to live for centuries, why the hell not)
+ I need more gothic bisexual books please!!

this book feels like if the invisible life of addie la rue and bury our bones in the midnight soil had a child except it’s way shorter than both of them

EXTREMELY EXCITING NEWS!!! IM FINALLY READING THE POPPY WAR!!

I’m seeing rf kuang speak in 8 weeks so I thought there was no better time than now to finally get destroyed emotionally after 5 years of it sitting on my tbr 🙏🏼🙏🏼

ve schwab I am coming for you (in a fun way)(after this I’ll only have ONE book left in her backlog)

MY GIRL MY QUEEN MY LOVE OH KETTRICKEN I HAVE MISSED YOU SO

WAIT WTF THE MOUNTAIN LADY AT THE BAZAAR CALLS HIM KEPPIT

reread time!! oh verity you are so missed come back to us 😭❤️

my only real critique of these books is that there are so many damn names to remember. especially by book 3, bc not only have we been in a different city every book (and thus a new cast of supporting characters) but the main characters themselves use different false names every book too 🫠

the thorn of camorr. oh locke you hopeless fool of a romantic

WHAT?!!!??!!!!

they’re so funny and ridiculous I love this series

a third of the way through rwc book 3 and we finally get a malta pov omg

I think I just figured something CRAZY out and if I’m right I’m gonna lose my mind

ok why on earth is this audio like I’m inside the woman’s mouth. I can hear her tongue moving around as she speaks, and its so gross it’s taking me out of the story. it’s almost like she’s chewing gum while recording eugh

nooooo ☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️

oh lock you’re really in the shit now and you don’t even know the worst of it

ONCE THEY BOARDED THE PARAGON
MY FRIENDS!!!!

"you're staring at me because I'm tall?" alex says.
"very tall," I say, as if this clears things up.
it's easier than saying, ‘I have missed you, beautiful smile. it's so good to see you, strong arms and legs. thank you, freakishly taut belly, for feeding this person I love so much.’
alex's grin ripens to the point of splitting open as he holds my gaze.
"it's good to see you too, poppy."

oh they make me giddy

the imagery in this book is some of the best I’ve ever read wow, scott lynch I was not familiar with your game

quick reread before I watch the movie!

I forgot how cute they were oml foetus alexpoppy I love you

omfg things are about to go DOWN

omg nina pov, this is a game changer (she’s a psycho)

nina is pmo so bad omg she needs to get punched in the throat and that brat cecelia needs to go to boarding school and learn some manners

I’m branching out 🙄🙄 (I heard the movie was a good adaptation so naturally I have to read the book)

oh jack I love you my little puppy dog

I TAKE IT BACK I TAKE IT ALL BACK IM CHEESING SO HARD RN

SPOILERS !!!!!

why oh WHY does the 3rd act breakup have to exist!!?! I really thought it wouldn’t happen in this one. I hate it here. I feel awful. and it’s hitting a bit too close to home :(

I can’t even explain why but I am so locked in to this goddamn book. this is the longest I’ve sat down and read in months.

I feel sorry for the people who don’t like character-driven books because fredrik backman is the master of them and I’d never want to live a life without his books in it
