This is so funny and realistic but in a funny way and I love it and I’d read it all in a sit if I didn’t need to sleep in order to open my eyes and read

i can’t stop reading

guys I haven’t finished a book in two months, but now school is over, work is over and I just want to READ

guys it's been forever since i've last opened a book and i miss it so much i want to scroll on goodreads and read books

i’m obsessed with

Every book and library lover being in awe right now

I swear if another French word is misused or not correctly written I’m gonna become the French grammar policy and pursue the editor

Is “Cher seigneur” suppose to be the translation for “dear lord”? Because I’m sorry to say, no one uses this in French

“Am I in earth, in heaven, or in hell?
Sleeping or walking? mad or well-advised?”
(Act 2, scene 2)

Why is Dostoyevsky using the first person plural for the narrative voice? How many are you really in this head?

Twice now Dostoyevsky has tried to explain his characters’ behaviors without success and I’m starting to question if he still has a hand on them or whether they have started to get free and act as they wish to

Not Dostoevsky writing a literary essay about his book in his book

reading this while being sick is another experience

Someone just spoiled me Nastasya’s arc I want to die

seriously considering dnf-ing this one

“Demelza had read plenty of historical texts on the way such bridal tournaments tended to progress”
same girl, I read the selection

Note if one day I have to enter a princess contest to win the prince’s hand: swoon at his feet as soon as I arrive (and I should arrive as late as I can possibly be without missing the introduction)

“They are Orpheus, she is Eurydice, and every time they turn back, she is ruined”

It’s page 5 and already I was served with a wicked reference

Should I dnf it? I’ve been stuck on this book for forever, and I loved The Book of Doors but here I’m really bored

bfr you’re telling me a priestess doesn’t know about the weaver???

Really unsure why I’m reading this right now but at least it’s fast-paced

A girl asked me what I was reading and I told her and she said “it sounds good I should read it” and I directly answered “no you should not”, and trust me it wasn’t for a good reason

I LOVE EINAUDI (and I’ve been bored for more than 100 pages now…)

“This isn’t a spectacle or a ceremony (…) it’s just you and me (…) I just want you to feel good”


Now this broke something in me or did it repair it anyway I’m sobbing

Loool the gargoyle thought they were Shakespeare
