thank you for saving me on my seven hour flight home

just realized this book is 700 pages so clare sager while i love ya, i'm leaving ya until the new year

it's taken me so long to read this book that i no longer remember who any of the side characters are whoops

ok i THINK i know where this is going (re: key) and i couldn't be more stoked

THE MARIUS AND ERIC SUBPLOT??

i STILL can’t tell who the love interest is going to be and i’m really stoked about that

this is SO silly!! i love it!!

this is the first YA (or NA??) i have read in a really long time but wow this is silly fun

this book is soooo good i'm so mad i waited so long to read it but also so happy that i saved it for this slump

fuck yeah

now it's time for REAL romance

i’m about to DNF i’m sorry this is not bringing joy

i feel safe in the warm embrace of a romantasy with geopolitics i couldn’t begin to comprehend

this is NOT going where i thought it was but in a very good way!!!

finally. some good fucking food.

Eli brother what happened to you?

conor harkness worst best friend in the world?

one of the things that i hate so much is that NO CHARACTER HAS ANY INTERIORITY. conor is a copy paste wannabe succession character. maya is obsessed with conor. every female character in this book is deemed unworthy or defective of conor’s intimacy, which apparently, everyone wants! except young nubile maya and noooo it’s not because she’s young and nubile not at all

“DON’T INFANTILIZE ME!!!” Says Maya, while acting like an infant

these two characters will have NOTHING to talk or think about once she ages out of her twenties. it’s her whole personality!!!

how did we go from not in love to this…

maybe i’m too Woke for this, but this dynamic is fucking weird… he helped PARENT her

let's go girls

lucien needs to give up on elain’s annoying ass and stay in his insane throuple for my sanity

eris sweeping in in the last quarter of the book to say “hey, i might actually be the only interesting male character* in this book!”

* lucien sweetie i’m so sorry but you have barely been in it
