I love that the one true constant in this series is kell and alucard’s beef, it’s truly beautiful to see anything last that long 🩵

…is this referencing what I think it is?

“MY AFFECTIONS AND WISHES ARE UNCHANGED, BUT ONE WORD FROM YOU WILL SILENCE ME ON THIS SUBJECT FOREVER” A MANNNN

mr. bennet: hey lizzie isn’t it so funny that mr. collins thinks you’re going to marry mr. darcy? I can’t think of two people less likely to want to get married
lizzie: hahaha that’s sooooo funny and soooo crazy I have no clue where he got that from *internally: don’t scream don’t scream don’t scream*

lizzie being absolutely incensed that darcy implied her family was garbage and then a week later spending time with her family and realizing they are, in fact, kind of garbage

Mr Darcy: clearly feeling out what lizzie thinks about him and if she might want to marry him
Lizzie: “what is this dude going on about? he’s so weird with all these random questions?”

remembering mr collins is canonically tall 😭

all the movie adaptations gloss over darcy’s insult to lizzie by making it where he doesn’t know she could hear him, but it’s so much more brutal in the book bc he fully TURNS AROUND, makes EYE CONTACT with her, and then says she’s “TOLERABLE, BUT NOT HANDSOME ENOUGH TO TEMPT ME.” sir.

why must everyone who does anything in greek mythology be royalty? is that an entry level requirement for having an adventure?

I don’t know if I like the way she’s erasing how crappy hera is too

did she forget that hera got eaten by cronus too…?

“People don’t understand that men and women can be friends,” Joan said.
“Or maybe you don’t understand when someone is giving you signals that they’re interested.”
IM SURE YOU WOULD KNOW

gonna finish it this time 💪🏻💪🏻

I have 30 pages left and I have NO CLUE how this is going to end

I KNOW WHO THE MURDERER IS IDIOTS

I have got to stop starting holly jackson books when I have work in the morning. I feel dizzy and I can’t stop reading

idiot

she’s too sure about the dying so it feels like she’s not gonna die but also it feels like a fakeout and she is gonna die

hey can we go back to “half sister” and “his mothers other children” that’s insane

I love that inej is so universally adored that all it takes is the mention of her name for people to be willing to break the law for her

this whole chapter is FOUL and VICIOUS

love is dead and life is meaningless

“chapter 40 of crooked kingdom this” “chapter 40 of crooked kingdom that” WHAT ABOUT CHAPTER 8 of KING OF SCARS. HMMMM.

UGHHHHHH NOT AGAIN

nina and mattias almost stop my heart every time I cannot handle them

“He needed to dunk his head in a bucket. He was behaving like a besotted ninny.”
every guy in this book is an absolute DORK

I’m not mentally prepared to do this again

“Her eyes were shut, her oil-black lashes fanned over her cheeks. The harbor wind had lifted her dark hair, and for a moment Kaz was a boy again, sure that there was magic in this world”
“She’d laughed, and if he could have bottled the sound and gotten drunk on it every night, he would have.”
HES SUCH A LOSERRRRR I LOVE HIM

all of the other crows are wondering how much kaz has actually told them and why he doesn’t seem to trust them with the plans but kaz is just “yes, and” ing his way through the heist to an insane degree. even he doesn’t know his plans

ROUND THREE!
