highs and lows like any collection so far but really easy to keep turning the pages of

screaming crying throwing up but mostly in anticipation because of how tense it all is. very lake mungo-core in that way. also being someone who’s watched season one of the witcher many times i know how to navigate temporally sprawled povs

i wish i had diamonds instead of teeth

we should kill that white boy with rocks

shaking my head when we learn about the institutionalized ***** ******* ***** *** ******* **** ** ********** *** ******* **** *** *** ** ** ******* ******

if i had a nickel for every 2015 fantasy book i read this year with an imperial breeding program…

bro needs an editor

fighting for my life as if i know the difference between the word feist and feast ☝️💀🤨↔️

ned chapters are not my favorite but the murder mystery unfolding at the end of this one ate
