Alice Wakefield is a lawyer here? What's wrong with interior decorating?

“…and Adam was on the other side, holding both of them, embracing their embrace.”

…I refuse to believe LJ Smith did not see the OT3 (OT4 with Nick) vibes here. Just couldn't make it canon because It Was The 90s. 👀

“Cassie had noticed that all the guys in the Circle were undisturbed by girls’ rights and privileges. They didn’t feel threatened; they seemed to know that they were just as important, in a different way.”

LJ Smith was teaching boys how to behave in 1992.

I could use some bloodsucking kittens to sic on certain people at work.

Like someone said, this series is half witchy plot, half Cassie waxing poetic about how beautiful all the girls and boys of the Circle are.

Wholesome lady friendships! Complicated lady friendships! Frenemyships! Man, I love this series.

"the girl they both loved" ahahaha, god, just form a polycule already!

Emma rereading a book immediately after she has a *soul-transforming* experience with it is such a mood.

What is it with Shakespeare and friars suggesting you fake your death?

The parental gaslighting is scarier than the demons.

"from as early as I could remember, his hair was white."

Jonathan Harker homage?

Being stranded without my luggage is my nightmare. I don't care if a vampire is after me; I'm getting my luggage.

Surprised by how much I like Elen x The Haunt. It's kind of like if romantasy *wasn't* heteronormative and squicky. LOL.

Starting to think the lack of a map may be significant to the plot...

Needs a freaking map.

I JUST NOW got the Bridge to Terabithia comparison; well played.

Just coming for my religious baggage, I guess.
