Right we back. My buddy is done with uni and we are setting out to finish again

I don't know if I have wanted to slap a bitch so hard. I am about to throw hands.

I am screaming into the pages, gnawing at the walls. I am dead of the yearning.

"He'd forgotten the unique benediction of a woman's care."

Something about this sentence strikes me as full of beauty.

So far this has everything I loved about Between Two Fires in it. The beautiful language, uncontrollable fervour of groups, the tiptoeing between the divine/supernatural and the real.

He is wearing a suit made from his own genetically modified vat grown skin.....I will never understand fashion 🤣🤣

I like when all the Ships get together and get real sassy.

It is funny learning the MC is a blonde and then nodding and realising there are just so many more associations with blonde male MCs than there are any other hair colour. They just always have a certain hahaha messy way

Seriously why do we continue to throw periods in young women's faces as something to be ashamed of, the source of uncontrollable emotions?

God damn if Phoebe isn't one of the best written femme support characters I have read in such a long time.

"Thar hidden pocket of yearning that she'd sewn up tight years ago --- his kiss ripped it open at the seams." What a lovely turn of phrase

As someone who was bullied growing up, the fear of Hex is roiling in my belly. I have never been good at reading about bullying. I hope it is resolved soon.

Ok part of the reason I stepped away from this for a bit was that I was feeling uncomfortable with how the brother is being led on through this. I get that these two don't want to admit feelings but it is right there and feels a bit icky. I hope it is resolved soon and he is given another option because otherwise it will be difficult. My second hand embarrassment/injustice is strong

Thank god that Spotify has both the new Discworld audiobooks and the vastly superior Stephen Briggs version! I was wondered they were wiped from the planet

God I love historical romances. How is it always just so satisfying and fun to read!? Especially KJ Charles 💕

Ughhh feeling that ickiness from how Nicky is being led on. I hope that os resolved soon because i feell terrible for him.

I hope Nicky is given his own alternative person to fall in love with, not just second lead status

Did she mention that he is huge? Large? Big?

Very ren faire chic not more classical medieval.

Just stealing kids with TB up in here sure sure 😬

I wish there was a little more time spent investing in the world before we took off running but it is pretty readable

I have determined I am only going read my ARCs on my computer for the sake of my eyes hahaha

While Deb isnt my fav name for a heroine, I do appreciate how angry she gets and says silly things.

God this is one of those books i have to make sure i read slowly otherwise i just dont know what is happening. Already had to reread sections several times

God this reads like an old school ethnography. I just imagine Le Guin read so much of it because of her father.

These gays be driving me mad ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Oh my god. 1. Why did i put off picking this book up because god i am eating it up 2. God how i want these to men to get the courage to actually speak to each other. MARKEL, lock them in a room and throw away the key (we knew that won't work but i want them to do it anyways).

Oh it has been a while since a good "who did this to you"

Ophelia is hella thirsty

I have forgotten basically everything and want to read book 2.
