why do i lowkey feel like i just spent a whole day in prison...

'Gone, has he? Well, and a good thing too!" 😭

watch me start two russian classics that i would probably finish next year this december (along with a new release im quite disappointed with)

just a quarter and a bit done (still think its naff)

feeling so blessed to have had nothing less than 4/3 star reads this year (except for the rare few) - i'm either too lenient with my ratings or maybe im finally reading the books i truly enjoy!

the minute i saw that this was the only story by this author that talks about Nazism i immediately got myself a copy

me and my history obsessed and anti-facist brain said 'yes' when i read "book that addresses Nazism"

dearest, unnamed brother-in-law,
why did you marry the wrong sister?

no, but why is autumn such a pick me i can't even

"i choose my friends for their good looks, my aquaintances for their good characters and my enemies for their good intellects."

"I should think it was Harry. But according to your category I must be merely an acquaintance"

oscar wilde, the genius you are...

i have been meaning to read this for FAR too long, and i've got a feeling its going to be one of my favourites

norbert, norbert, norbert fucking hollister. i had faith in you

felt like taking a break from chem revision with this thing

the one fault i have with this book is the way the Lisbon sisters are described - like they are literally 13-15 and they are described in such a sexual way gosh!

i was not expecting this book to be this short.

going into this with a big box of tissues

not reading for school. i see why schools choose to get us to read this though, 'cause there's so much to analyse - but when you are reading this for fun, it makes me wanna gouge my eyes out (its so boringg)

i'm sorry, but why does Bunny remind me of pre-serum Steve Rogers (i think i've been watching too much marvel lately)

im going in with high expectations and a heart overflowing with love for dark academia (and academia-esque) novels. please do not let me down :)

HAPPY NEW YEARRRR

This needs to come with trigger warnings PULEASE

idk if Verity is a narcissist or if she's genuinely afraid of becoming a mother.

ok, minor update, but can we talk about Verity's behaviour here? I get the part where she's panicking about bodily changes and about the struggles she might be facing body image wise 'cause pregnancies do cause alot of changes that some women may be insecure with but why tf is she upset when Jeremy loves them unconditionally? is it 'cause she thinks he'll stop loving her after they are born? or smth else?

you would think i would be here, yapping about how much i hate this but quite the contrary, im actually enjoying it for some reason? (also, i DID NOT need to know all those intimate details abt Verity's sex life ty)

*ahem* remember when i said and i quote, 'i never wanna read another colleen hoover book ever again'. well i fucking lied 'cause i got hooked after reading the synopsis.

p.s. i still hate her writing tho...

i'm creating a priority list for 2025,drop some suggestions plsss (need help)

gosh, i can't finish my goodreads goal this year.... imma change it (im so embarrassedd)

need to satisfy that itch to reread this whole series again... don't mind me <3
