Trying to portion this because it’d be a shame just reading it in one sitting but it’s so hard 🥲

A men’s idea of goodness and purity of faith is essentially just hating the women around him for keeping him from being exactly that with their tempting or contemptuous ways, huh?

I keep saying as a joke that if I’d grown up to be a pro athlete I’d be an ice hockey goaltender because I have the kind of personality to go with it and apparently so does Rachel Reid 😔 Goddamnit.

Wow I love Viggo Mortensen as Aragorn if he was my favourite Goaltender Jonathan Quick of the New York Rangers (sorry Darcy Kuemper you are my favourite overall player but not my favourite goalie I’m sure someone will get what I mean by this) if he had one of my other guy’s Harvard degree if he was me if I was incredibly rich and living in NYC.

I’m HONESTLY so tired of independent single women (wanted or) unwanted pregnancy (adoption) storylines I am ssssooooo tired. It was fine the first couple of times, I can think of two or so that I thought were good but c’mon.
I know this is from 2007 and there was something in the water that made everyone give female characters these storylines in the 00’s and 10’s but I’m annoyed right now, sorry 😔

Please no more half-assed politics I cannot take it anymore 😭

H IS FOR HAWK MENTIONED !!!!!

(Große Überraschung natürlich 😂)

Uhmmmm reference to Death Comes For the Archbishop?????

Book written for me personally I feel dizzy

@ the accountability bookclub who sees me read anything but the book I wanted to be held accountable for: no you don’t

I am listening to Ordinary Saints as an audiobook and i cannot STOP it’s so good.

Spoilers??

The way Magnus creates Lestat and then just yeets himself into the fire like a feral goblin will never not be funny to me, sorry.

Love you Aldo Bellini. Also I’d love a Bellini rn

Lomeli / Lawrence confirmed bisexual? wow that was not on my bingo card.

Oy oy some of the changes made in the movie are so smart but at the same time I’m impressed with how many scenes and dialogues have been adapted to be exactly (!) as they are in the book.

“Voluntary retirements are always more dignified, but rare. Most athletes don’t quit at a high point in their career.
Most athletes retire when bodies wear out, or when nobody wants them anymore. […]”

Anže Kopitar I love you SO MUCH. No one has a more functional relationship to their sport than you urghgrhrbr

Homo Ludens mention giving me war flashbacks 😭

Woah incredible Roy Bianco reference (7UP on Christmas)

I constantly need to remind myself what time this book was written in because honestly half of what was in the last third wouldn’t have become and issue had they just idk… talked to the woman instead of trying to “save her from things that would upset her” even though she already knows what’s going on. Feels sooooooo dumb and constructed but YOU KNOW 🤡

At this point I firmly believe Van Helsing has escaped from a nursing home in the Netherlands and is refusing to go home because no one ever comes to visit and hear him talk about nonsense so now he has to annoy the Englishmen who’ve not yet realised how demented he is.

Van Helsing schreib einen verständlichen Satz, diggi - Challenge impossible

WAS ist mit ihm?!?!?

Mans mentions working at the arenas in Columbus and hockey players stopping by before training and I literally go ahead & search “Cleveland Hockey Team” because 1. i mix up the cities the entire time and 2. I forget about the existence of the Columbus Blue Jackets to an extent where I cannot even remember them when I try to think of NHL teams I always forget. Rip Blue Jackets I have no idea who u are apparently.

“This ache is, of course, not exclusive to the romantic relationship. I’ve found it harder, even, when it comes over the platonic relationship (which, when done correctly, is also a romantic relationship).”

I’m kissing your brain, Mr. Abdurraqib, you just get it.

EVERY BIT OF READING THIS IS A TREAT OMFG
No passage is not that good or only a little bit uninteresting EVER
