“Perhaps you should have ascertained if I was high maintenance before you abducted me”

😂

“Vicious little female. Treacherous.”

“Right now, I have a bride to feed and take care of. Strangely enough, the thought is just as pleasant as the idea of sex. More so, even.”

Your honor I love him 😭

“In all ways, Gian was true to his feline self. He was sometimes mischievous. He could be tricky. He was often protective, but he was always smart. In all ways, he was a master strategist.”

Of course he was LOL

“For right now though, I have to try and save someone who loathes me. I’m not sure if that discussion is going to be any better than the one I just had.”

THERE IT IS. When you can see the *thing* coming for multiple chapters and it still hits you like a ton of bricks.

Of course I ran out of audiobook hours at the turning point 🙃

“But Viper is fucking psychotic.”
Oh god oh god oh god how are we this far into the book already?!

I’m already screaming. How the hell is a dark mafia why choose about to become my new favorite comfort read oops

Of course I got side tracked for an audiobook, but we’re BACK IN

Ok I'm back in: Really looking forward to Kaius redeeming himself after that stunt he just pulled because EXCUSE ME?

Currently cackling over our MMC merman Arges wondering why her "flippers" (feet) look "mangled" (because they're toes)

ITS HAPPENING

My Libby hold came in, proof I read “serious writing” too.

Ssshhh of course I'm listening to the next IAD, this one is the best so far 10/10 no notes

Dnf’ing (for now anyway), I love unhinged but this is frankly boring! There are too many other exciting things to read (that are not over 500 pages)

Jesus Mary & Joseph (and all of the saints) !!

“This isn’t some fable where everyone makes it out alive. It’s hard, cold, uncaring reality. Not everyone here is going to make it home…

…So if you won’t get your shit together and fight to live, then no, you’re not going to make it.”

Never say never I guess! …but also my god am I afraid of heights 😂

I’m loving this book but my god it is FRUSTRATING that it feels like everything is happening in real time 😤 Let’s get a move on, teens!

I started reading this book in JUNE and I am simultaneously ashamed that it took me this long and giddy that I’m going to finish it before 2024 is over 🥹

“Of course I look good. I’m a guy in peak physical condition wearing Armani pants.”

Book club pick and my first (perhaps last) hockey romance. At least a book called “Pucking Around” knows exactly what it is 😂

If you thought spooky season was over… This is the supernatural nightmare meets familial obligation story you didn’t know you needed.

& the audiobook is on Spotify.

“You smell like a dead goat that’s been baking in the sun for days.”
“That’s oddly specific, I’m sorry you’ve encountered that before.”

Welp, if I wanted escape from the hellscape we’ve found ourselves in, going straight to hell was certainly the right choice!

Ooooooof I had wondered why we were spending so much time on pronouns earlier 😫

Would love to update you all but my only responses currently are periodic AHHHHHs and UGHHHHHs

This book is one long creeping shiver.

Brb following Kingfisher and reading much much more from them.

“My heart lies vulnerable outside my chest.”

(This book is still annoying me, but FINE I’ll enjoy this tender sentiment 🙄)
