Sometimes a major blackout really makes you go back to an old favourite and start annotating and highlighting the heck of it

JR is 55% done with Um Milhão de Finais Felizes
I know it's taking me a long, long time to read this one but I can assure you that so far, I'm really liking it.

(And maybe I should have waited to pick it until I knew some bits and pieces of Portuguese instead of started with the bare minimum -that comes from Spanish and Portuguese being a bit similar-)

I want to pick all the phrases of this book and hold them closer to my chest.
Because maybe they can break me, maybe they can smash my heart in a thousand different pieces, but oh my god... what a beautiful destruction

Maybe my knowledge of Portuguese is really, really bare (and mostly formed by the similarities between Portuguese and Spanish), but still, I'm going to try my best to read it...


I'm too stubborn, I have a Portuguese - English / Spanish dictionary with me and I'm SO eager to read this book.... So... This is definitely happening

If I had a nickel for every book that features a visit to a closed V&A, I would have two nickels, which isn't a lot, but I love that it has happened twice

There aren't words enough to describe how much I love the remixed classics collection. These are all so good!!

(Anyway... I think this may be one of my favourite P&P retellings so... stay tuned for that future review! )

It's a great, great combo (in my opinion)

This one is going to be a new top favourite, isn’t it?

(The answer is probably, yes)

Sometimes one just need to go back to the all-time favourites and the comfort reads…

Luckily for me, this one fits those two categories.
