I do love good notes on sources

yassss queen, shame Wilkes!! I love how bitchy Ross is about the whole Wilkes Land situation

This is honestly SO GOOD and well written, it's a joy to read

i really need to stop picking this one up right as I'm about to sleep, this book is GREAT so far and I need to bite into it

Back to vibing with Ross, it's so refreshing to read something enjoyable after the shitty book I've finished earlier today 💖

this book would've been more interesting and enjoyable to read if it was pure fiction, then I could excuse the sloppy research, basic mistakes, and the early 2000s fanfiction-style of romance writing

This books keeps randomly jumping from topic to topic so much that it's extremely hard to stay interested in reading it ngl

This book is such bullshit tbh, it still can't decide if it's a romance historical fiction, a sailing almanach, or some sort of biography. To describe in excruciating detail the Beaufort scale and not even ONCE mention it's called the Beaufort scale?! And then jump into some random facts about a coastline? Who the fuck edited this shit. Still not over the typo in Eldridge's name, this shit ain't been fact checked.

this is getting decent, but I would've appreciated some sources... had to do my own research to check some things smh

Very mixed feelings about this book so far, leaning towards "bad"

KING BRUCE LEE KARATE MISTRZ KICKING THAT BEAM

The intro by Margaret Atwood was so annoying ngl. Should've skipped right into the main book.

haterism mode on for Chesney

I highly doubt this book will teach me anything new at this point but I'm determined to finish it.

ngl so far I think I know more about Crozier from reading Ross' and McCormick's accounts of the Antarctic expedition than from this biography of Crozier 😂

oh, how I love reading about Ross and Crozier shenanigans

"zaleca się nie być ciekawymi jak stare baby" Chopin's notes to his sisters still relevant when addressing siblings 200 years later, we love to see it

I need to stop picking this book up right before I gotta go do something else (like sleep)

loving the physics of meteorology recap ngl, I haven't read this much about cloud formation since middle school geography classes

Tytus deciding at the last moment to join him on his Europe tour... we love chaotic queers

Frycek, what do you MEAN Tytus wouldn't kiss you unless you made him do it with your magnetism. WHAT DO YOU MEANNNNNN
