the differences of murtagh and thorn vs eragon and saphira is sooooo cleverly written

im curious leave me alone

lets try that again. I didnt remember thr way the "dark skinned people" were talked about. the way theyre not even given like a tribe name or anything and the way they're portrayed is so...

im soooo sick of the pale elf aesthetic

eragon gets his ass beat so often 😭

I forgot what a slow start this book had

god, every moment of this book feels like a gaining weight on my chest

dont even read the communist manifesto, read this. qin zheng will radicalize you.

alright. let's see how this goes

literally sucks so bad that this is such a cool world and the writing is mediocre. let's focus less on mal's jealousy and alina's guilt around him and focus more on like. defeating the darkling, come on

I love that while acknowledging her own limited experience and understanding of other races compared to black understanding, she does attempt to explain robust knowledge on history and reasoning for treatment of other racial and ethnic minorities, quoting experts from those fields.

if I dont get the polycule this keeps hinting at, im killing everyone

I was a little nervous the start was gonna be a poorly done enemies to lovers thing, but oooooh its been so good. I love the main character so much.

if ludivine isn't the prophet, im killing everyone and then myself

I love that its solely, like, first person pov. it creates such an interesting story and uncertainty of the doctor by roos's story. delicious.

LEAVE REMY ALONE LEAVE HIM OUT OF THISSSSS

first sentence in had me hooked omg. the details of this writing. trannies, read this please

so painfully close and so painfully far I hate men

CORIEN POV? HELLO?????

it's so nice to read a book on trans experiences in things that don't happen solely to trans people, but still recognize how being trans can shift how these experiences happen

I think it's good to read if you're a man who's never experienced misogyny. but it's painful to read as someone who's been a woman. like it's continually like "well men it's the women you know" and idk. I think its a good awareness to bring to the situation and a smack in the face that men need. but it's a little ignorant and makes it seem like it's more important about the man's experience with gender violence :/
