This has nothing to do with anything. But after watching tons of documentaries I thought Anne was more upset that Peter got to bring his cat but she had to leave hers, but it's hardly mentioned at all.

Also, also why are they labeled as Van Daans in this version when it was the Van Pels or was that Anne's pseudonym for them. I google a lot while reading so I shall find out.

I think I'm going to add lusty priests to my lists of triggers 😬

"What is… Did you get a tattoo?”

Does this matter? Is this importante?

I'm reading the paperback, my notes will have to look like this:

"After three consecutive deaths of prisoners during his interrogations, it is this command’s opinion that Major Burton Varrish should be reassigned from an active wing until further notice. —MISSIVE FROM LIEUTENANT COLONEL DEGRENSI, SAMARA OUTPOST, TO GENERAL MELGREN."

The shadows are playing golf and they are yelling FORE! It's a foreshadowing joke

I am stressed.
I am not okay.
Someone hold me.

Kicking my feet like a little school girl because this shadow-man speaks my language: SARCASM.

He scoffs. “Hardly. I don’t fuck first-years—even when I was one—let alone…you.”

Okay, first of all - how dare you.
Second all all, the gall and nerve to think that we would be interested. I mean, we are. But not with that attitude.

I am here to tell you 3 things.
No 1: I cannot pronounce any of the dragons names so I have nicknames for them.
Tairn is T-man. Adarna (spelling?) is Goldie for obvious reasons. Sg-however the fluff you spell Xaden's dragon's name is Sis.

No 2: T-Man is a romantic at heart and is captaining the Violet x Xaden Ship himself because his WIFE told him too. All aboard.

No 3: Forced proximity by dragons is new for me.

Me: Ophelia..............who is Ophelia again?

At 78% I got the Royal Drama I was promised and desperate for. I had to go through so much politics that I *really* didn't care about.

They finally kissed.
I feel like I've waited a century to get here.
I've also learned that slow-burns are not for me once and for all 🤣
Thanks. I hate it.

We've been through 6 name changes,
1 police interrogation,
1 almost arranged marriage,
And 1 reunion with her family.

And this girl is working through it all and thriving. It's honestly amazing.

Halmeoni was so wrong for telling her about her real father.
She lost her connection with her brother, and her step father. That must've been so hard for a little girl.

Keeping count of the name changes as my own little reference. So far, we have the birth name and then the first new name so early on into the story none of which the author goes by so I'm interested to see how we got to her pen name.

Gah, my most favourite trope of all: ✨️mIsCoMmuNiCAtiOn✨️

*sarcasm

"I was in a collar and leash."

In a Mowgli-esque pose, mind you.
Help me. HELP ME.

Ew. No. It is the first time I encounter the word "Tauter" and I hate it. Thanks. OMG, I understand the moist debaucle now...

I'll never understand why the girl-on-girl hate is SO STRONG in these books. If it adds to the plot, then by all means use it, but at this point it's just petty and makes me dislike Scarlett.

"She collected her besom, her bucket and her soap, and as soon as Howl was out of the door, she set off like an elderly avenging angel to clean Howl's bedroom."

Me when my hyper ADHD kicks in and I have the urge to clean everything.

Also, my most favourite line I've probably EVER read.

Also, earlier, Julian was saying that its too bad Yasmin wasn't born a son and I'm still angry about that comment.

*wrings hands evilly*

Please, I just want something to happen. Anything.

Aaaahhhhh

If Jane cries one more time,
So will I...

I have turned to the audio book because apparently I have no patience for reading classics that aren't Shakespeare.

Damn me. Damn me for being weak.

(Not for turning to the audio book but for being uncultured enough to not read it)

The words are very...pretty...

It's a bit long winded right now. I'm on page 110 and nothing of great importance has happened so far, and there is a lot of text that doesn't qualify as exposition so I'm just glazing over it...

I really want to like this...please...
