"He thought she made an attempt to smile at him, as if in solidarity—"

Oh, my heart is about to break 😢

'His name is friend.'

Of course it is.

Honestly don't know what I make of this yet... neither love it or hate it. Guess I'll just plod on and see what happens

Would anyone be so kind as to recommend some fantasy/sci-fi novellas, as in max 200~ pages?
Studying at the moment and finding it hard to make time to read full length novels. (I feel like I've been reading Toll of the Hounds for years now)
Thanks in advance!

Riv has moods other than angry? Didn't think it was possible 🤔😂 Riv, go on you good thing😍

“What has the universe done for me lately?”

Miree has a point there!

Okay... what the fuck just happened there😳😐😭 I had to skip ahead🥲I am not okay...

Did I just try and decipher that? You know it!

Aw, sure you know yourself... anything to keep away from studying 😅 really enjoying it!
Anxiously-optimistically-apprehensive really looking forward to the series!

Dunston’s skin prickled as he heard a twig snap behind him.

The tension is too much😖I was on the fence about this one until I found myself loudly giving advice to the characters like some horror film😅guess that means I'm invested!

Jander studied her and then spoke softly. “My Lady, I know the situation is dire."

Anddddd, I'm not sure I care... 😕

"She would take no new Lord. She would never cede power to another man and call him her master. The thought was thrilling, terrifying, and completely right."

We're only getting started and Iskra's had enough! She and Kethe ain't messing about here.

I'm reading this for two reasons...

Firstly, novellas are literally the only way I'm going to reach my reading goal this year.

Second, the Brothers Gwynne recommended it. I believe the words 'dark', 'scary', and 'based on a real life haunted castle' may have been used. I'm paraphrasing but you get the gist.

YOU CANNOT BE SERIOUS!?!

'You might as well stick your head in a rain barrel, begging Your Highness’s pardon. You’d still drown, but you’d save a lot of other people a great deal of trouble.’

Amos telling it like it is. At least he added 'begging your pardon'. Amos don't give two f****. 🤣

Book One is finished - Four Stars 🌟

Me: uh, oh. This could be bad. Ronan, do something clever.

I've forgotten just how intoxicating Maggie Stiefvater's writing is...

Falling in love with this world again.

"You mucus-smeared knee-in-the-groin fart-cloud! Save me!"

Iskaral Pust knows exactly how to win people over😂

Shit!! Yes! Holgren is such a badass!!! I'm literally screaming!

I should be studying... but all I can think about is this book🙈😂I need to finish it!! Sooo good!

Well... I was NOT expecting THAT!!! 😱🤯😮

The twist!!!!!!!

"Hopefully, I saved you, my love." 😭😭😭

Ohmygoodness, I've been destroyed... send help...

"We are one iteration of billions of the same universe with only slight variances. These universes exist in extra-dimensional space, where they reside next to one another like slices in a loaf of bread."

Yesss! Give me all the parallel universes! Give me the multiverse! Give me all the Sci-Fi awesomeness! I am loving this!

I am in my element here!

The thoughts and concepts explored in this book so far are amazing!

So many questions....
I'm on the edge of my seat here wondering what's going on with Straus, and Cal.
Who or what is Raz??
Custos is amazing 👏 just let him do whatever he wants... nothing bad could happen, right?

Oh.my.goodness... wtf!?!?!?😭 I can't see the pages through all the tears

Did you pick up a book and sit back and wonder why you hadn't picked it up sooner? And simultaneously feel sad for your future self because you'll actually have finished it and are no longer reading it?

This is the feeling of the day. I am both ecstatically happy and sad at the same time.

I am loving this...

You didn't get to be the village of one story, she supposed, unless you were the hero of another.
