Have realized I am in the mood for a girl MC so will be shelving this and giving An Acceptable Time a whirl.

I came for the unicorns.

as a big fan of HEREDITARY, the fact that the dad's funeral was full of unrecognizable strangers had me DEEPLY CONCERNED oh no oh no oh no...

Delighted to learn about another niche RP message board....I am still thinking about the Space Wives from the other one.

Oh no I fear we may be in Innsmouth again!!!!!

Never heard anybody say they were sapiosexual w/ a straight face before wow. Maybe it's a Harvard thing.

The Jane Eyre chapter had me laughing out loud???

Was suddenly inspired to finish it up in audio form...idk.

I love Lestat but I also love the first century now I guess. I just had a mighty need to get back there via book. This is my first Caldwell. I grew up hearing my mother wax poetic about Dear and Glorious Physician. Excited!!!!! Historical fiction from decades past just hits DIFFERENT. It's like...........maximalist........................or something. I dunno. But if YOU know, you know.

He's really having the complete little mermaid experience!! Cold toes and spaghetti hot enough to maim are bullshit!!!

The thing about this book is that............................it is a crackfic.

I wasn't expecting to laugh so much....what a delightful book.

A gorgeous book, I don't know why I ever doubted she could pull this off lol.

But I don't want it to be over :(

Whooooaaaaah we're halfway there whoooooAAAAAAA it's a very slow burn but I cannot stop thinking about it!!!!!!

i definitely have a book hangover.

i just be in my room crying over this book

Okay now I'm crying for a different reason...................not all writers can capture those kinds of experiences but Mr. Hendrix sure can.

idk why i thought this would be a fun romp (╥﹏╥) every page breaks my heart a little bit more. grateful all over again to have found myself prego and unwed in the year of our lorde 2006, and for my parents who said, "don't worry, please just come home."

THEY ARE TAKING THESE GIRLS TO THE SAME HOSPITAL I GAVE BIRTH AT!!! it's doing my head in a little bit.

I know the men are the main source tension & I don't begrudge Sayuri her little limerant crush on the one person who showed her kindness at the height of her misery and loneliness, but I think I'd enjoy this story more if they did not exist lmao. Hatsumomo brings enough peril and anxiety all by her bad self!!! TBH I'd be more interested in how she became.....that way. Along with the other women in the okiya.

Sometimes I forget that painstakingly detailed historical fiction was my very first literary love. This is a book I definitely would have ditched school/feigned illness for lol.
