I'm almost at a loss for words, I've been sobbing two minutes ago. That's what we read: stories about war, stories about brutal generals, published by people who only watched but never interacted with them, never knew them. That's what makes people break at the end of the book. Especially considering the wars right now which we are reminded of every day ... I need a sequel about Pol and E studying in Paladia ,_,

I'm sick so there's no other option than reading and napping and ... actually, I'm afraid of two facts: How unhealthy Kaine and Helena (finally) admit their love for each other and that I now have around 100 pages left I'm VERY afraid of.

Need to stop mid-chapter, but omg, I already know what's gonna happen. Not to mention WHAT already happened and how increasingly miserable I feel for Helena

All those DETAILED injuries

THAT EYE THING WHAT THE HECK ... also: damn that book is BRUTAL

It's so brutal(ly honest), I love that aspect!

The teeension - AND THE BODY HORROR

There was a very interesting documentation about the real places of the Odyssey on TV, using video snippets of the game Assassin's Creed Odyssey - archaeology and palaeontology mixed with greek Gods ... well, even the most disciplined reader is putting a book aside then hahah
My mom told me that Alexios looks like Gale Dekarios' brother and now I can't unsee it AHH

Well, uh ... I guess there's going to happen much more? Because right now it doesn't really feel like a ten out of ten.

How fast a happy end can turn into a sad end ... :')

He absolutely NEVER fails to make me cry

Cheetah hihih

Cute story! Written mainly for teens, but I love the animal encounters in these books :)

I need to cry now :(

Didn't expect this book to make me sniffle in cause of tears :')

It DEFINITELY IS one of the best nature books I've ever read. OH MY GOD

I guess this is one of the best books about nature travelling I've ever read QwQ

Finished the book on time: The Story Of Birds just flapped its wings in my hands today, having rescued a young tit from inside our company building today :3

He mentioned Kākāpō, Takahē and Weka ,_,

"It's the myth that dinosaurs are dead. [...] But, in truth, they are not dead. They are still with us. Birds live on."

Sooo interesting, oh my God. I love the way Steve Brusatte is able to teach me one second and then makes me go back to a world 125 mya ;-;

New steps I can add in bird evolution! And today I found THE perfect showcase for my fossils. I'm going to pick it up friday evening and I'm sooo excited to put the ceratites and bones and teeth in there just like the minerals I own ... decorating it will be my favourite time ;-;

We love Solnhofen limestone! Not only in cause of the fossils, but also in cause of the lithographic background. They used Solnhofen limestone in Gotha for Perthes maps and books. Just imagine this: using limestone for lithographies (geographical maps) while you print the exact place of Solnhofen onto paper where also archaeopteryx and compsognathus were found?! Feels magical ;-;

Such a decent development of love between two characters *sniff* ... but did anyone see the titles of the books on the cover? ONE IS TITLED RIVENWOOD, AHH ... I need a second book in which Agnes and Havelock are saving french kitties from the streets around Sacré-Cœur :(
