Justice for Briseis

Continuing my tradition of needing to take a multi week break before suffering through the end

:/

Ugh can we not? This was so lovely, let's not ruin it with a truly foolish romance

I'm actually so mad right now

"A tilting vertigo as if I were drunk, I could not speak or think. I had never been angry with him before. I did not know how."

Don't worry bestie, I will be plenty angry for the two of us

#throwback to when I met a mom with a daughter named "Briseis." When I asked her if she had named her after the character in the Illiad, she replied "idk, but she was Achilles priestess lover" and then chatted about the importance of strong women and uplifting our daughters
Which, absolutely. But that's just an interesting + mostly incorrect interpretation for something you literally named your kid after

A little annoyed it's taken me until the last day and a half of break to start a book

"Boy after boy trained for music and medicine and unleashed for murder"
🙁

"Assurity rose in me, lodged in my throat. I will never leave him. It will be this always. For as long as he will let me"

This story will never not grip me huh

Wtf are these abominations

Dali I regret to inform you that I am enjoying this funky story

🙁

The trees are speaking to the MC and it is making me yearn for The Raven Cycle

Uhuhh.......

Oh dammit they're going to kill off this poor, sweet wife. Poor thing doesn't stand a chance against the narrative when she has "a cough."

This gift of the magi moment is going to make me LOSE IT
This story means so much to me
