Reading a sapphic romance in the presence of multiple PPs feels wrong 💀 also never going to wreck beach again cuz those stairs wrECK ME

I’m so y/n I read a whole one page at bestie Malcolm’s show tonight. #StreamPettyCrime #StreamSlighestClueToo (basically somewhat met both bands tonight LOL)

Reading while the teacher folks play dungeons and dragons

I miss Goodreads being my safe haven twitter frfr hello world! I am currently loving this book, we love a fake dating trope here. Also my first wlw book! Can’t believe it’s taken 8+ years of (still) questioning my identity to finally read a queer romance book but hey, here we are! Would love more recs if folks have any! Got a lot more time on my hands with less course work and no bf stuck to my hip 25/8 LMAO

Reading this in a bar like a cliche y/n

Coming back to the book boyfriends to deal with my breakup 🤩 hashtag live laugh love , hashtag the song “expectations” by Olivia Rodrigo 😂

GUESS WHO FINALLY FIGURED OUT HER PASSWORD AFTER 4 MONTHS, WE R SO BACK ON OUR READING GRIND BABY (who knew id stop reading after forgetting my password💀)

THINgs r FINALLY PICKIN UP BETWEEN EM LFG

My prediction is he’s gonna become a chef

Didn’t finish this essay, too busy 🤮 (💀)

Eye finally not swollen (I’m fine) was able to finish the chapter I left half finished but anyways finally made contact with the characters from the first book and I thought it was rlly cute n fun hehe

No assessment of an essay today, just happy Ash Wednesday :)

And no I’m not giving up reading for Lent u can’t rip the books outta my hand sorry LOL

Had to pause mid chapter cuz I feel like my eye is somehow gettin more swollen… so I’m gonna sleep now and hope it stops😭 swear I have a new injury each month 💀

I feel v called out. “12 signs the only problem with ur life is that u think about it more than u live it” and then 2 of the signs are “u maladaptive daydream” and “you try to find comfort in over analyzing old things to make more sense of them” … this feels personal 💀😂

Try reading with one eye while the other is swole LMAO

This essay was called “how to detox ur mind” which I thought was good timing to read while trying to calm down from smt that just happened but it actually just pissed me off more💀 i cant say “this is all wrong” , but not everything can be applicable to everyone and unfortunately this just made me go, (in the least concerning way possible pls dw): how am I surviving rn fr💀 (IM FINE LOL) but omfg

Wish there were some footnotes or smt for translations cuz I have to keep googling shit but it’s okay cuz I still read a hefty amount while being in pain LMAO so I feel proud of myself and the plot is gettin funnnn

Unfortunately this book did not make me zen today. I’m gonna crash out (and faint for a very diff reason but I also feel v faint rn) but it’s ok cuz I’m bringing my romance book with me to my errands LOL

I didnt realize this is about the side characters from the author’s first book “the Spanish love deception” I love that ! oo now I’m excited cuz I recall liking that book (besides the guy’s name being Aaron. ifykyk. LMAO)

My reaction to this essay: GOSH FRICKEN YES! x1000!! This literally speaks about whats been on my mind that I wish people would fricken understand but I’m gonna save my tangent for the comment section under this cuz this has a word limit so here’s some quotes instead:

“Life isn’t logical.” !!!

“People who waste their lives search for reasons to love rather than ways to love”

I have no more room-

“Truly coming to peace with anything is to be able to say: thank you for that experience.”

Last 2 essays were very interesting. Truthfully got a bit lazy and didn’t pick up this book for a lil bit and I think it triggered my current bad luck , cuz my peace is being disturbed by crazy ppl (thieves and hackers all in the span of 2 weeks😭 I’m so tired. Idek how to adult , I’m just a 22 year old child).

Ok I didn’t wanna add this to my actual review under the book cuz I didn’t wanna spoil anyone but here’s my rant:

WhO TF SLEEPS WITH THEIR BEST FRIENDS FIANCÉ RIGHT AFTER SHE PASSES— THE DAY OF HER FUNERAL TOO?? And then label it as grieving?? That can’t be a thing! (Ok I googled it and apparently usin sex to grieve is a thing) bUt they also kissed before she passed so he did cheat! Like ?????

I don’t want to mark this as complete yet till I can write a solid review but it is currently 5am and I am incapable of doing as such with tired eyes. I simply couldn’t put the book down tho. And now I’m in shock, disbelief, confusion, I’m juggling sm thoughts n feelings rn. I did cry but for random reasons? What a journey— I need to sleep but I’ll report back tomorrow 🤧 uGh I’m so pERPLEXED THO

I started predicting shit and was right. Psychic?? Orrr am I just too good at noticing little itty bitty hints and piecing the puzzles together 🤭

Thoughts on reading on the elliptical ?? 🧐
