‘Did I love him?’
‘More than anything.’
It hurt to swallow. ‘Did he love me?’
Rain taps against the roof. A breeze rattles the wooden door. When Derrick speaks, his voice is so soft, I strain to hear him. ‘He loved you so much that when you died, he might as well have died with you.’

gothic novels really do hit differently huh.

I’ve only read a hundred pages and I’ve already cried three times. This book is going to break me.

‘I knew a human girl once. She was stubborn, like you. Refused to drink the paltry contents of that bottle, like you...’ He pauses for dramatic effect. ‘And she died a horrible, painful death — torturous, really — because she wouldn’t take my advice.’

I scrutinise him. ‘There was no human girl who died, was there?’

‘There will be if you don’t drink what’s in that damned bottle.’

god, i love them so much.

OH GOD, OH GOD, OH GOD! I honestly can’t believe I’m holding this in my hands!

Mal: *exists*

Me:

At this point, I've accepted that the villains are always going to be my favourite characters. If you need me, I'll be in the local trash heap protecting my smol, angry children.

Guess who's ready to die.

For the love of God, will someone please hug Holland!

I'm a hundred pages in and I've already been through an emotional blender. What is it with Victoria Schwab and her never ending quest obliterate my heart?

This is absolutely ludicrous and I'm loving every second of it.

This book is mesmerising! It feels as if magic is leaking off of every single page!

I'm so excited to be buddy reading this with the astounding Yarravy! I'm also finding that I really want to read A Murder of Crows...

I'm just... So messed up right now. This is Cleo and Magnus Part 2! (Except, you know, slightly more angst-filled and doomed.)

Is it too early to start shipping Farrell and Crystal? (I mean, I'm going to do it anyway, but I have a feeling it's going to be a long, painful ride.)

If Kaz Brekker doesn't get the love and appreciation he deserves I'm going to have to start a riot.

Twenty-five pages in and I'm all set to marry these characters. If you love Bellamy Blake and Clarke Griffin from The 100, you're going to love this duo!

Guess who found this at her local bookstore and brought it before they realised they'd put it out a month early.

You know shit is getting weird when Lorcan becomes one of your favourite characters.

I'm gonna need somebody to shot me down because my expectations are way too high right now.

I can't believe it's taken me a year to realise that Celaena first meets Dorian in The Assassin and the Underworld! (I have to admit, I kind of swooned. Their flirting skills were really on point.)

Well, after having disappeared from Goodreads for two weeks it's safe to say I'm not dead! (But if this book is anything like These Broken Stars then I probably will be.)
