I never really had an interest in Andrea as a character, but since I'm a completionist when it comes to Ilona, I thought I'd give this a try. well, I tried and I honestly have no desire to continue. Raphael is a little weirdo who's doing weirdo stuff and I don't wanna ruin his image in my head so goodbye to this👋

i've read a good chunk of this book and i'm still not really connecting with any of the characters🫣

zaddy🙏🙇

I don't think I have the strength to read this kind of abuse currently

"Pity the fish confined to its pond.
It cannot play in the grass. It will never feel the breeze.
How can we claim to have suffered enough?
Pity the fish. It will never swim among trees."

my comfort read🥹🙏

"I awoke with a startlingly foul odor in my nostrils. It required little imagination to deduce the source. I opened my eyes to find Mr. Stoker turned on his side away from me, his feet resting on my pillow, a scant inch from my face."

lovely🫠

i love people who walk around alone in the forest at night when there's an active killer😊

why is literally everyone a cheater in here??

ah the classic "both brothers fall in love with the heroine" trope. and of course she doesn't even notice that one of them is in love with her, even though she's a witchy mastermind🫠

idk im just not enjoying the main character🫣

i really am not enjoying the development in the main leads relationship, which was previously a father-daughter one and now there's sexual tension??

"I feel we needn't bother looking at faces to find this man, Din! Just keep an eye out for the fellow with testicles large enough to cause back deformities, and we shall have our culprit!"

well said Ana

this book is so goofy

"She’d always been rather proud of her hair, having grown it herself, as it were."

"Kaže se kako je prazan život smrtnika bez Božje ljubavi. Da pokornost Njemu ublažava bol rana uzrokovanih samoćom, jer u služenju Bogu pronalazimo savršenu ljubav i postajemo cijeli.

Ali ako je Bog Otac, Sin i Duh Sveti, ako se Trojstvo sastoji od trojice u jednome, onda Bog o samoći ne zna ništa."

kinda goofy and the story is all over the place, but the humor is hitting it for me

"A robot wrapped in human DNA with daddy issues."

"The Lord’s Prayer.
The captain died trying to steer me into the sun while playing a religious chant on repeat.
Excellent."

"Goblin Engineer. Level 3.
Engineers. The incels of the goblin world. They have a hard time finding a date, which makes them extra angry. If there are any females in your party, they will attack them first."

"“The future—she was looking forward to it very much.”

—AUNT OF ONE OF THE FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY VICTIMS, 1978"

"For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world…

Ephesians 6:12"

the first chapter has definitely intrigued me🧐

"That’s the problem with all those well-meaning people who try to comfort you by telling you that everything’s okay, you’re home now, and the war’s over, as if you’re an idiot who can’t read a newspaper and see that an armistice has been declared. It’s like telling someone that Greece is over, or England, or Russia. It’s nonsensical. Places aren’t ever over, except maybe Pompeii."

"Nevertheless, I do not believe that God cares where you worship Har. The prayers of the dying on the mud of the battlefield and the pleas of the fearful hiding in cellars must surely ascend just as quickly as those uttered under the light of stained glass. More quickly, if there is justice in the universe."

"“How many medals do you have in a box somewhere, Lieutenant?”
“Too many. They mostly don’t hand those out for being brave, just for being too foolish to run away.”"

"When you talked to Bors for very long, you realized that he was slow, and if I had meant stupid I would have said that instead. Bors had a mind like a lava flow. It took a long time to get where it was going, but there was no stopping it. I quite liked him."

"I’m keeping is what we say in Gallacia to any such inquiry, and it covers such a broad range as to convey no information whatsoever. It can mean “I am filled with unspeakable joy, my gout is cured, and angels attend my every step,” or it can mean “a bear just ripped my leg off and I am, at this moment, bleeding out, but please don't make a fuss." Either way, you're keeping."

""He's not going to leave me. He dumped all those other women because he hadn't found the right one."
"You think you're the one?"
"I know for sure that you weren't.""

""I was never your best friend. I was your work friend. And the fact that you don't know the difference? That's your whole problem right there.""

broooo why are you still kicking her while she's downnnn🥲

the classic betrayal of the ex-boyfriend and best friend smooching👌
