@Maria I’m reading a new book after finishing one less than a few hours ago

So far she's an orphan (duh), abused by her foster parents (why ofc), can talk with serpent monsters that nobody else can talk to (hello Harry Potter) and has had a child door dashed to her trailer's door

Oh and she's not like other girls so the heroes of this 10yo girl are mathematicians

Smh

My brother in christ if you need to info dump your whole world building at the start of the book you're doing it wrong

People who accuse Rebecca F Kuang to show not tell in her academically researched historical fiction novels should take a peak at this

"Centuries later, Spartans and creatures migrated with the humans to modern-day Italy, enjoying the wealth and status of godhood.
The Roman Empire was born."

You mean the GREEK Spartans??? Some of you didn't watch 300 in 8th grade and it shows open a primary school history book omfg

Update: still depressed

This is depressing ngl

"This book is dedicated to all the girls who like morally grey fictional men, and who screamed out loud the first time they read “who did this to you?” This ones for you."

It's fucking trash and it hasn't even started

Bear in mind I'm choosing to read this as part of "Shit Book Club" with my friend Ana to take a break from the reflective but very depressing literature I have been reading recently

Okay everyone this is where I slow down bc my vacation is over

For context this is my "at home" book, while the other (which is in my kindle) is my "in the car" book

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk

Maria about to lose her mind with my updates, you'll see
