my HEART

“Let them start their dreadful wars, let destruction rain down, and let plague sweep through, but I will still be here, doing my work, holding humankind together with love like this.”

this book is a treasure

I. am. in. love. with. this. book.

Me: lol how many books do you think I'll read before these two weeks of self-quarantine are over?
Hubby: I don't know, three?
Me: *sweating* *already on book four* haha, yeah, that would be crazy...

LET'S GOOOOOOO

This is not as good as I want it to be :(

This. Book. Is. EVERYthing.

Happy National Book Lover's Day, everyone ❤️Hope your current read is fulfilling and fun!

So... I had this lovely January TBR. I'm halfway through it. Go me.
BUT THEN, A TWIST.
A hold notification from the library. Another. Three holds notifications, all in one.
Illuminae, Wicked King, and Winter of the Witch, all of which I've basically been waiting for all my life.

Starting this book like

"I wish you could be kissed, Jane," he said. "Because I would beg just one off you. Under all this." He flailed an arm toward the stars.

Rereading this book like

HEY RHYSAND *waves*

Can we talk about how awful Aedion is? I hate him 😠

OH HEY YOU, LONG TIME NO SEE

I would need to read 2 books a week to catch up on my reading challenge 🙃 impossible unless I just repeatedly reread Carry On

There comes a certain point with a hope or a dream, when you either give it up or give up everything else. And if you choose the dream, if you keep going, then you can never quit, because it’s all you are.

UGH i have so much faith in Thyon’s character arc. Please stop being a terrible person so I can love you

I got so excited to start reading this book that I forgot to mark it as “currently reading”...

First world Goodreads problems 🤷‍♀️

OH THANK GOD. You had me going there, Jay Kristoff, you sneaky bastard.

That. Chapter. Was. Harrowing.

Unpopular opinion, but I swear if I hear her talk about Scaeva or Duomo one more time, I’m going to lose it 😑

An epiphany is a visceral understanding of something you already know... Once something moves from our brains to our bones, that's when we can use it to change our lives.

Be your best, do your best, demand the best, expect the best, receive the best, and put your best out into the world so everyone can receive your best, too.

"Having money is like anything else; a tool. And if you see it that way, making it not just about you, but about a way that you can play a part in the dynamic by which money is used for the betterment of all things, then having money is not only a blessing, it's a responsibility." (Marianne Williamson)

5 books behind schedule on my reading challenge 😢😢 feeling like it’s officially too late to catch up...

If it's something you want to do, don't wait until you're less busy or richer or "ready" or twenty pounds lighter. Start right now. You'll never be this young again.
