I’m in the worst reading slump. Trying to see if a genre switch kills it for me.

“Eyes here, Mairi.”

I’m so here for these two.

Sliseag might be one of my favorites now

“He’s the best of us.”

😭

“Dad?”

“Sir.”

I think you meant asshole, actually. Poor Dain.

Marbh poking his head through the branches to scold Brennan is pure orange cat behavior

This book is endlessly charming

“It’s equal parts uncomfortable and addictive, being known in ways I never intended.”

“For a heartbeat, I’m not invisible, and something inconvenient hums just beneath the surface.”

What an excellent line.

The hall of Lucas thinking he’s owed an explanation

What a poorly placed time jump

What a fast love declaration 😑

This and page 198, not sure how I feel about these two scenes.

About halfway through and it’s a resounding meh so far. I don’t feel any chemistry with them and this feels more like a light academia book as opposed to a sports romance. Cambridge is positively insufferable and elitist. I hate their treatment of George.

Needed something on the lighter side

Milo still just loves to say Jeebus at the most ridiculous times

I’m powering through for Jay & Seb but Milo is so much like a toddler sometimes

So I had this paused for about two weeks because of how corny Milo can be at times. And here I am met with another Jeebus 🥴 This is a grown man and I’m sorry but this is so corny to me

Enzo is my new favorite everything

😭😭😭 it’s always something when you read a scene that you’ve only seen an out of context quote for and it just punches you in the feels

I’m eating this up and relating to Enzo on a visceral level that I didn’t see coming

How lucky am I that I got the arc for this? My e-arc and my physical blue arc both arrived today. The universe is smiling at me 🩵♟️🦋

Despite the questionable number of times Milo says JEEBUS I still like these two

Jay is such a yearner, I love it.

“You’re not a nobody Milo. Please don’t talk about my friend like that.”

😭

Pausing for a minute because how many times do I have to hear about meatball subs?! Yes sometimes a book is too long if you’re getting bogged down in repetition

Predictable but the plot is plotting and I’m having fun with these two. But seriously can Milo stop saying Jiminy Christmas? It’s so corny.

What the fucking fuck? I was NOT expecting that

I just know these forget me nots are going to mean something and it’s gonna make me cry
