I have such high expectations for this book I am soooo excited to read it

I don't usually update my progress on books because I'm lazy but dear lord this book is taking everything out of me... I do enjoy it because I am a fan of this series, but I have not read a longer book like this in a while (also has huge pages and small font and no chapter breaks). I've been slow and steady with it, and I can see the end now whewwwwww

I have been on the wait list for this since MAY and I just picked it up this afternoon. I am dropping everything to read this right now

Finally

Such a classic :)

Every time I finish it, I just want to start reading it again. One of the most beautiful books ever. The power of memory will never escape me

Okay I am losing interest now and it is just alright.

OHHH I'M HOOKED

Lingering in Happiness you will always be famous.

If you, like me before reading this, do not know who Sarah and Angelina Grimké were, I highly recommend checking this out.

Finally going to finish this effing book

“I knew the body of the woman you said had no substance. Carlotta’s very substance was pain. And that you did not know this, or, if you knew it, did not care, that is what made me despise you.” Honestly one of the greatest moments in literature

“I look back at my tortured teen years when I considered putting a final end to my misery; and that act is almost unfathomable; my sixtieth birthday is racing towards me like a freight train, and still the future seems full of promise”
CHRISTIAN COOPER YOU LEGENDDDD.

Can’t wait to see what this motherfcuker Paul does

This is getting real intense now…

Feud-Rautha’s birthday bash <3

This book!! I can feel my mind expanding with all these new ideas.

“To the prohibitionists, Hannah is a failure, because she continued using drugs. To the Portland [a hotel that provides free housing for addicts], she was a success, because she knew she was loved”

We should not fear a person addicted to drugs, but rather the state that imprisons, abuses, and disregards the value of human life.

Ughhhh I had to stop reading but I ended with my girls being forced into the Blood Rite…. But I fear not I know they’ll win 🫶
