“I am too old now to be a hard-hearted author, and so it is probable that he may not die of a broken heart. Those who don't approve of a middle-aged bachelor country doctor as a hero, may take the heir to Greshamsbury in his stead, and call the book, if it so please. them, 'The Loves and Adventures of Francis Newbold Gresham the younger.'” we’re starting GOOD

the company of wolves supremacy!!!!

i’ve been broken forever.

“Good-bye Jude; my fellow-sinner, and kindest friend!” “Good-bye, my mistaken wife. Good-bye!'

"Perhaps the world is not illuminated enough for such experiments as ours! Who were we, to think we could act as pioneers!” 💔

…………..

i applaud jude & sue’s strong values, their honesty and how they stick to it all even when it gets hard… but it is a clear fault for them both how they’re completely incapable of navigating the world they physical live… they may be made for the stars but they’re slowly dying out down here on earth and they won’t even try to change any of it

oh this is just crazy

'You are Joseph the dreamer of dreams, dear Jude. And a tragic Don Quixote. And sometimes you are St. Stephen, who, while they were stoning him, could see Heaven opened. O my poor friend and comrade, you'll suffer yet!'

sue is kind of a queen actually….

when your crush is suddenly flirting with the man you introduced her to and you want to do something about it because he’s twice her age but then you remember she’s your cousin and you are actually married to someone else.. 🥀

only one part in and hardy has already defended his view on why the institution of marriage is corrupt and ruins the lives of people.. oh i know that’s right! 🙂‍↕️

a new thomas hardy novel just entered the building!

my girl just thanked god for finally giving her a crush

not saying she’s not completely justified but i cannot not find funny just how much of a hater agnes is. love to read her thoughts!

brontë girl autumn we’re back at it!!!!!!! 🍂🍂

“Ah, those days... for many years afterwards their happiness haunted me. Sometimes, listening to music, I drift back and nothing has changed (…)
If I'd stayed there, would I always have been happy? No, I suppose not. People move away, grow older, die, and the bright belief that there will be another marvellous thing around each corner fades. It is now or never; we must snatch at happiness as it flies.”

“And then, God help me, on my first morning, in the first few minutes of my first morning, I felt that this alien northern countryside was friendly, that I'd turned a corner and that this summer of 1920, which was to smoulder on until the first leaves fell, was to be a propitious season of living, a blessed time.”

miss kenton is stronger than me, i would’ve killed this man years ago

someone PLEASE tell stevens he can breath😭

i guess i’m going through a hard-ish time right now so here i am… reading only stephanie perkins’ books

3.37AM and i have to force myself to stop reading and go to sleep… i can’t believe these silly books still hook me this badly

the girl who has based her entire personality around wanting to be a prestigious film critic and supposedly looooooooves art and movies etc etc has just had a meltdown after finding out that paris (where she now lives) is actually a huge film city. like she literally thought they were lying to her about this.. man, americans are just on another level

just a few chapters in but i have to comment on meredith’s extreme beatlemaniac thing.. she’s so real! 🤷🏻‍♀️ (and i truly hope she’s a paul girl)

i can’t believe i’m doing this but i really wanted something fun and easy and that would make me feel all the silly giddiness you can only get from a badish book you loved as a teenager so i guess i’m rereading this now!

mr thomas hardy man you’re crazzyyyyyyy

guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty. god, this man truly cannot live with himself
