The conversation between Palpatine and Dooku before Dooku’s finale battle with Anakin is GOLDEN

“I worried a lot. Will the garden grow, will the rivers flow in the right direction room, will the earth turn as it was taught, as if not, how shall I correct it?
Was I right, was I wrong, will I be forgiven, can I do better?
Will I ever be able to sing, even the sparrows can do it and I am, well, hopeless.
Is my eyesight fading or am I just imagining it, am I going to get rheumatism, lockjaw dementia?”

“I never saw a wild thing / sorry for itself”

I stopped reading this for a bit because it was beginning to hurt but I think it’s calling to me now

The funniest part of this book is that Dunk is HUGE and a great guy but he is Not Good at Fighting / IS wanting of wit

I liked book one more than book two but I am still enjoying this

Obsessed. I love it.

The Targaryens are INSANE

“Listen, I’m a bit disappointed, you know, that you didn’t fall in love with me. But still, all and all.. you cannot but praise me for being such a simple girl”

Sometimes a book just finds you at the right time

This book is BONKERS - I am IN IT

Reading like a Goosebumps - and not in a good way.

Chapter one is scattered and weak. Hope it picks up. Feels more like the writing of a first draft rather than a completed novel

This book would be really bad if I wasn’t reading it like a Gilmore girls fanfic

Feeling so icky reading this

“I don’t know if I’ve ever been scary. I don’t know if I know how. Maybe things would be different if I did.”

At one point Shelby says “Abigail was a human being, she like, she existed, that’s a fact but John Proctor is just obsessed with this made-up thing.” In reference to JP’s “it is my name” speech - feels insane considering that John Proctor was ALSO a real human being, who didn’t actually have an affair with anyone, and was wrongly accused of and murdered for “witchcraft”

<3 howl is such a bitch ??

Only four chapters in and this already makes so much more sense lol

“In time of trouble, I had been trained since childhood, read, learn, work it up, go to the literature.”

“Notes From His Periphery, or The Glib Martyr” is nothing short of fantastic. Held onto every word, ruefully relating.

the way you act/think about yourself when you’re trying to get a boy to like you is actually insane and Carrie captures that really well lol

Carrie writes soooo wonderfully about unrequited love, about being nineteen, and with such dry wit - I love her dearly and relate deeply

there is no one funnier and wittier than Carrie Fisher

not very good lol

“It doesn’t effect me… but I hear Shreya and Henry and so many others calling to me”

I hate seeing these kids be mean to Piggy
