the angst!

Linton Heathcliff is a worm!!!!!

you just know everyone gets a cough and dies

completely psychotic. I’m tuned in

dude. I know they’ve known each other and been in love for years, but they’ve been a couple for WEEKS!!! CHILL DOWN!!!

as someone who moved from the southern to the northern hemisphere (and thus suffers every winter), i cannot relate to how much this woman HATES the heat and seems completely unbothered by the grueling cold

THIS! is what Stephanie Perkins is amazing at: simmering tension, making you hold your breath

again about the political remarks: PLEASE can we have more of the book-banning criticism, and less of the weird preachiness about not hugging people post-pandemic?

the tensioooon. I love it. BUT! Do some of these political interventions feel a little awkward? I love the class awareness, but “global warming-fueled bloom”? hmm

I still have so much to read for uni… But I needed some literature, so here we go :)

DAMN! EMILY HENRY!!! DAMN!

justice!!!!!

Ok, that last chapter was GREAT. wow.

“Unfortunately, I’m still – at my core – me.”

ok, so far: what the hell???

it *is* a great action novel, can’t deny that

Ok, I’m enjoying this, I’m not gonna lie. I don’t know if the volume of fan service got too ridiculous or just better, because I’m being reminded that I, too, am a fan lol

I might put this one down. 48 pages in and we’ve had 10 different pieces of useless fanservice and apparently homophobia is now a thing in the Hunger Games universe???? Why????

Consider me once again humbled by Jandy Nelson’s words

I don’t even know what I’m reading anymore

“Grief is a house”: I’m sorry I ever doubted you, Jandy Nelson

“Grief is a house”; forgive me, Jandy Nelson, I’m sorry I ever doubted you

putting myself through this again and already on page 48 I cannot fathom how the whole of “I’ll Give You the Sun” and the phrase “orally fixated mouth” can come from the same person

Na próxima vida, quero nascer Carla Madeira

Carla Madeira, como sempre, escreve com uma faca

calling this magical *realism* is a little bit of a stretch

Emily Henry can not write main characters who aren’t just absolutely charming

Couldn't wait until April for the new Emily Henry, so I decided to pick up one of her YAs ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I am admitting now that maaaybe the problem is me. Maybe I don’t get it.
