CHRISTINE DE PISAN MENTION 🗣️🗣️🗣️

“[Women] murder no one, nor wound, nor harm, … Nor houses set on fire, nor disinherit men, Nor poison, nor steal gold or silver; They do not cheat men of their lands, Nor make false contracts, nor destroy Kingdoms, duchies, empires … Nor wage war and kill and plunder…”

YA. That’s right Christine get them

this book is so goddamn good.. i haven’t been able to read this long in one sitting FOR A WHILE

these girls mean everything to me. if i was there i would kill every man in the city and free them. n then we’d live on an island free from all men. circe would be there too

AZORES MENTION!!! POSSIBLY MORE CONFIRMATION OF AZORES CONTACT IN THE ANCIENT WORLD!! OH YES!! YUP!!

this is so good so far. but i’m incredibly stressed because i love the girls so bad already and i don’t want anything bad to happen to them but obviously. bc they all work in a brothel. i know they’re bound to face the worst shit ever. i wish men didn’t exist and these girls were able to just live.

if dido kills herself i will kill myself too

JOAN OF ARC MENTION 🗣️🗣️🗣️

christine de pizan u diva

okay LOVING this book so far - the author, hetta howes, similar to the author who wrote femina - is like, the perfect mix of adding personal touches w/ fact, retelling the medieval woman’s existence, etc. overall, she’s a great storyteller, reading about medieval childbirth had me ENGAGED. so excited to keep reading.

no way did i just read “this is why women choose the bear.” okay kristin baby you are writing a horrible romance can you please not. this is not what you think it is. this mc is so unlikeable i can’t. this is pumpkin spice cafe 2.0

i am most definitely not finishing this series. but i am a man of duty so i will at least finish this book. this chapter ended with her saying OUT LOUD MIND U. “shit, i’m falling for kane” BOOOOOO TOMATO TOMATO TOMATO WHAT KIND OF BORING ASS ROMANCE IS THIS

tell me how they extinguished a fire and BOTH almost died. we have no clue if hannah’s ONLY FRIEND survives it. how kanes best friend basically almost dies. n they just go back to their room n smash bdsm style. N they don’t show any concern about it. Until while cuddling when hannah asks what his plan is. Hey so I don’t like anyone in this book

you know what i miss? just some regular ass chivalrous romance. why are these romances so heavy on the sexual aspects and then do the more romantic fluff AFTER ?? how about we build some actual tension and not have scenes like: i’m about to fuck u. oh no every time we’re about to smash we get interrupted. n that’s it.

is that what real romance and tension is to you KRISTIN. WRAP IT UP.

okay i lied the mc is annoying. idk why authors have such a hard time trekking between making the mc relatable versus making them annoyingly sarcastic n dry. this is not a girlboss moment u r pissing me AWF.

also the whole hetero romance trope being like. i don’t need a man bc im now going to be an strong independent woman is so exhausted ENOUGH OF THAT
