"Even if Saskia doesn't know which of them is the actual monster."

AHH

Lucy: First girl crush :3
Saskia: I CAN"T GET TOO CLOSE I"LL WAKE UP OVER YOU WITH A KNIFE!!!!!!!!

While the idea of a girl getting involved in a cult because of a cute girl is super interesting, this book is.... not greatly written.

"To be with is a sin. To be without her is a tragedy."
AHHHHH

"Why did I choose this job? Why did I pursue this? Why didn’t anyone warn me that I’d spend days telling people not to cook meat in the bathroom while hearing others chant from outside that I’m a pedophile?"

Hey! I've had just this thought before!

How is the writing SO GOOD?

Listen to the audiobook, by the way. You just melt into the narrative.

A reviewer described this book as if one of the Bronte sisters' wrote it, and for some reason this works for me. I like it.

Ha, yeah, "friends"

Run, girl! Run!

Found family!!! A sweet make love interest obviously written by a woman!! Older female friendships!!

This is sweet.

"I'm so curious about how that happens, healthy love. Like, where you go to find it, and what you're supposed to do to deserve it."

yeah

I love sorcha so much. I’m eating this book.

Late 30s women friendships are so important and it's lovely to see that represented here!!

I've been thinking about rereading this book a lot recently so that pretty much makes this book five stars!

The premise for this book is SO GOOD and yet the writing...

I want to keep the Austen adaptation read-a-long going!

"Anna should stay with you," Frida said... "Anna's the best person to stay. She'll keep it together. She won't panic or-- she's solid. Calm. Strong."

I love them SO MUCH

"Was she, once again, getting swept up in what other people wanted, ignoring her own thoughts and desires? Failing to assert herself, just giving in because she was shy, or lazy, or afraid... of something?... She didn't want to draw attention to herself, to make a fuss without good reason."

God i love anne elliot with all my heart.

"Frida's crooked smile deflated, "Are you happy?"

I love them, i love them.

This is so good!!!

"Eve?" the doppelganger prompted.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

This simply wouldn't happen to me because who opens the door and lets strangers in??

"When the letter arrives, Harriet Lockhart assumes it's another death threat, and leaves it on the mantelpiece with the others, unopened, for six days.

ohh??

"You're not worried? About us being in two different universes?"

Talk about a long distance relationship!

They're so cute, your honor

I demand more queer normative settings like this novel for now on! It’s so lovely!!

what a fantastic slow burn (fans self)

"Zada pinched the bridge of her nose. "You can't literally do this for shits and giggles."

READER I LOVE THEM.
