Awww that interaction between joan and lydia was so precious. Idc what anyone says, i like lydia ❤️

I feel like i'm finally getting a hang of who everyone is. There's so many important characters and I finally figured them out but now half of them is either dead or dying 💔

Istg barbara is one of the most annoying characters i already can't stand her. She's so negative all the time?? She said her life's calling was raising this kid but she can't actually raise a kid? And every time she's in this book it's like she's just tired and miserable.

"Hon gick omkring med försiktiga, ängsliga steg medan hon stirrade i marken efter det som krälade och kröp." Det är så jag varje sommar 😓

Bilderna i den är så fina❤️❤️❤️
Jag blir typ nostalgisk av att läsa den trots att jag inte har någon koppling alls till finska öar eller vikar.

Gud vad förvånad jag blev när det helt plötsligt berättades från Bodils synvinkel. Jag trodde hela boken skulle tala om henne som ett minne men nu blev hon mer på riktigt på något sätt.

Den här boken känns otroligt långsam 😞

Jag gillar att man får lära känna Bodil genom andras berättelser, och nathans tankar såklart.

Bokklubbsbok 😝

Oml they're in rome and I've been on half of the vias and piazzas he's mentioned. I LITERALLY LIVED RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET FROM STAZIONE TERMINI. I was in there about three times a day 😝

Uhmmm okay elio...
I don't support this 😊

I have identified with a lot of the stuff he's going through but I didn't see being with two different people behind their backs coming...

"People who read are hiders. They hide who they are. People who hide don't always like who they are."

Why do I feel like I'm being patronized? 🥲

"Some recover, some pretend to recover, some never come back, some chicken out before even starting, and some, for fear of taking any turns, find themselves leading the wrong life all life long."

Stop it that's my biggest fear.

"All I had to to was list the works I'd read here and he'd know all the places I'd traveled to."
I envy and love their connection. Having this sort of deeply rooted connection with anyone must be hard to keep platonic. And the feeling that it is unacceptable for them in multiple ways to act on it. I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT TO SAY EXCEPT MY HEART ACHES FOR THEM.

Why is he keeping her locked up now as well 💔
I hate that.

Bro why wouldn't she just say "i love you" back 😭

This book is destroying me.

The writing in this chapter I just read was so good i felt like I was right there with them on that summer solstice. I could see the spirits in the meadow and feel the gold of the dawn.

There's so much going on!! I thought this would be a slow book but it's sooo not 😝

I love how much subtle information we got from just one chapter. This feels really promising bc i have a thing for books where the protagonist fends for themselves and live in poverty 😝

Oh my god, NOTHING is going his way. If i were him I would just admit defeat and send the beetles away by this point.

It's crazy to me how they forced this guy into going on the mission, and the author brings that up one chapter after rocky says that they are both so courageous for going on their respective missions.

This also raises so many ethical questions, which I absolutely loveee in a book.

WHAT ROCKY NOOOO 💔💔💔💔💔

Did he just scarifice himself in order to save ryland, earth and erid?? 🥲

Awwwh rocky is 291 years old!! So cuteee 🥹

I feel so maternal towards this rocky guy. Even though he's got similarities with spiders and i hate those things i feel like he's just a little baby 🫶

Like wdym he started bouncing around in zero g as soon as he got bored 🥲
