a child praying in the night, just wanting to be good. john steinbeck how could you do this to me!!!!!!

"Dear Lord," he said, "let me be like Aron. Don't make me mean. I don't want to be. If you will let everybody like me, why, I'll give you anything in the world, and if I haven't got it, why, I'll go for to get it. I don't want to be mean. I don't want to be lonely. For Jesus' sake, Amen."

saw a video of the author talking about how she wanted to write something with a jane austen-style heroine plus magic and swordplay and fantasy… and THEN that she wrote all three novels and revised the whole series together before publishing them all at the same time… yeah girl i am seated. i am here for whatever you have to say🪑😌🎧📖

started reading this on my phone tonight after dinner while john was doing some work and i fear these white woman thrillers kind of do have drugs in them (positive)

“When I said Cathy was a monster it seemed to me that it was so. Now I have bent close with a glass over the small print of her and reread the footnotes and I wonder if it was true. The trouble is that since we cannot know what she wanted, we will never know whether or not she got it. If rather than running toward something, she ran away from something, we can't know whether she escaped.“

this is about to ruin my month (positive)

wow i was really drawn in by the worldbuilding and magic system and the friend group we started with……………but this main character makes unfathomably awful decisions. its getting extremely painful
