“Supposedly, children are resilient. But Joan suspected this was merely something we tell ourselves because we are terrified they are just as delicate as we are.” 🥹

this is so good

“I’m so tired of not getting to choose you.” 😭

Part 3 is killing me.

“I’ve never gotten to tell anyone about you.”

finished part 2 😭😭

not ready for part 3, so heading back to reread part 1 first.

“Her protest vanished into the silence replaced by a horrible, waiting stillness, like the space between slowing heartbeats, when a heart finally stops. The sound of ending.” 💔

SenLinYu’s writing is PHENOMENAL & I hate it 😭😭😭

so torn between savoring the rest of this or binging it. UGH

“I’m sure there’s something poetic in it all, but all I feel now is a new set of manacles.” 😭😭

Omg this story is so DEEP. I keep comparing it to Manacled, which is annoying of me, but I can’t help it. While the plot lines are wildly similar (obviously) I can’t help but feel that Alchemised goes much deeper politically & religiously & psychologically, given that we don’t have the HP world to settle in. Insane writing.

😭😭😭

The flashbacks are starting 😢

“No good choices, just worse and worse, which way to hate herself forever.” 😭😭

can’t stop comparing every single scene to manacled in my head

This is already so intricate.

I’m scared.

not sure why I continue to torture myself with books like this

this is so wild. very eerie & action packed.

ok so this is creepy

my pregnancy hormones can’t handle this plot 😭
