I loved how a book, a story, a set of words in a sentence organized in the right order, made you miss places you’ve never visited, and people you’ve never met.

i already know what’s happening and the main character better figure it out quickly or i’m going to get annoyed.

”Where am I supposed to put it, the anger? … Where’s it s’posed to go?”

ugh. predictable and gross.

haunt me then!

take any form!

drive me mad!

oh heathcliff i truly cannot escape you.

this is somehow weird and boring at the same time.

There ain’t no thing as a bad seed, only dry and unkind land.

It was like I was addicted to whatever made me feel most intensely, even though it was hurting me.

who knew you could literally undo a slow-burn romance? i don’t know if i’ve mentioned it, but i HATE this.

seriously, WTF. i hate this.

wtf. i do not want to be inside this child’s head.

”Now tell me who you are.”
“Vengeance.”

oh this is getting SO GOOD.

Why, oh why, do we find the most dangerous, forbidden men the most irresistible?

MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY

When the world is falling apart around you, it’s time to take down the drapes and make a new dress.

is this meant to be a love triangle? i didn’t think it was but now i’m not so sure… and unfortunately this man is evil and sexy, which of course really does it for me. i need to be studied.

not the ”Big-Bad” reference. Karen is such a Buffy fan girl. which is relatable.

lol ok Karen. now you’re just being obvious. i’ve already watched this scene before…

and it’s giving Buffy again, with some Shadowhunters thrown in.

”They welcomed us with gifts of their finest food, wine, and men.”

amazing. viva the matriarchy.

i can’t breathe. this man has me in a chokehold. i can actually feel the feminism leaving my body.

Would my cells lose the cohesion necessary to maintain the shape of my humanity?

Mac, girlie pop, GET A GRIP.

also this slow burn is chefs kiss. it’s not a true slow burn until you’re about to literally die from the anticipation and build up.

excuse me WHAT?! the implications of this unique bit of faerie lore are WILD.

jesus christ i swear this woman put crack into these books.

guys this is SO INSANELY ROMANTIC. i may die.

truly giggling and kicking my feet

oh the Bridgerton-ness of this is really working for me.

”Pleasant-mannered people are simply the worst sort of people. Decent people become properly angry when presented with miserable injustice, but pleasant-mannered people never do.”

She had little effort to spare for making unpleasant men more comfortable.

what a queen.

Maybe that’s what being a parent is. Expanding to be more. … I understand it so simply now, it is a love that lives in the body but unlike the body it never dissolves. It lasts forever.
