Such beautiful stories, but definitely need to consume this one bite at a time

It’s like reading an Animal Planet docuseries sometimes but I am learning things (hooray and applause for non fiction 🥲)

Burning enough this book with a smile on my face and tears in my eyes so I can tear through the Netflix production with a smile on my face and tears in my eyes

Introspective women>>>>

Reading this and Untamed by the same author at the same time is, wild. If you know you know; and if you don’t—ask. No spoilers here

Why is the epilogue 200 pages???

Between this and War and Peace, I’m basically a Russian historian now

:( I know I asked for the characters to die…but please

Goodreads probably thought the books that have been on my “currently reading” page for over a year were MADE for their “DNF” shelf. No, not me. (This book is really long though and the last 50 pages about military strategy have slowed my progress, I’m ready for all the 500+ characters to start dying one by one)

Obsessed

“But what is war?…The aim of war is murder; the methods of war are spying, treachery, and their encouragement, the ruin of a country’s inhabitants…and fraud and falsehood termed military craft. The habits of the military class are [in] the absence of freedom…. And in spite of all this it is the highest class, respected by everyone...he who kills most people receives the highest rewards.”

I need to stop being surprised when "the greats" are actually great
