‘but you are sweetness through and through. nothing you smear across your skin will change that’ OH!! i had no idea this book had intimacy in it like at all. IMAGINE MY SURPRISE WHEN IT ALL STARTS HAPPENING.

this book is so good I’m eating up every page omg. I’m GRIPPED by it rn

the language used in this is so vivid i love it so much. the world building is woven so beautifully!! and It’s scary and intense at times — one scene literally had me scared in bed reading it😭

pre read: i am so excited !!! needed to read something real alongside my rotating table of fiction. i hope this book is as good as it sounds !!

so many characters are being introduced i lowkey need to make a character map 😭 Thornfield Hall is a BUSY place my god

this book is so fun to follow along with I’m so excited to see where jane ends up !! her desire for independence is so strong i admire her so much.

“glancing round occasionally to make sure that nothing worse than myself haunted the shadowy room” ohhhh okay miss brontë i see why you’re so dearly loved. what a LINE.

so pissed off about the second sex I’m starting a new book who’s surprised

this book has been one of my biggest let downs and I’m trying so hard to not dnf it but you can only read so much about how men hate women and infantilise women and wish they never grew past early puberty before you get sick of the regurgitated word vomit. why does every chapter say the same shit It’s soooo boring. and i know It’s an old book but god everything is the same ?????? like am i missing something

i hate this stupid book every character i like dies 😭😭

i hate when men read a situation wrong and then make it out to be the girls fault. men when an attractive girl wants to be just friends with them: *distraught sobbing, insane tempter tantrum* , ‘i thought you liked me!!!!’ waa waa. like shut UP ur insufferable and idiotic

the book is reminding me how much better the movies could’ve been if they focused more on her and who she is outside of her relationship with edward. the tide pool scene??? hello??? that would’ve been captivating

how does edward seem so much more lively in the book compared to the film 😭😭 maybe i just need to rewatch the movies but i feel like i can picture him more vividly in the text. also i hate his smugness he’s so SMUG all the time YOU ARE NOT SLICK !!!

my entire tiktok feed is edits about how bella was destined for so much more than edward and i got emo so I’m due for a reread + I’m annotating this time so wish me LUCK!!

Alice’s parts are so boring i hope they pick up soon cos god, I’m so tired of hearing about her sister and her raging attitude towards her poor step Mum.

‘so unlike sabine, who found the shape of her own urges in the dark and thought that was the only place a truth like hers could live.’ such a good analogy for comphet my GOD

okay i cant put this book down omg this is so good???? i was not expecting such TENSION

‘you allowed me to dream again’ cut the cameras I’m too emotional rn

the whole podcast subplot is so stupid to me idk. It’s a good way for colby to get over her dead wife but why tf is it such a big deal to the other girl???? sorry she gave u advice and it blew up in ur face ?? maybe don’t email podcasts asking for advice you idiot?? 😭😭 It’s just all so unnecessary I’m so tired of stupid subplots in queer books

curvy femme lesbian rep rise !!! let’s go lesbians !!! i love complex characters that actually have lore which explains why they’re the way they are. i love the way this author writes women loving women. this is such a fun read sprinkled with deeper more intrinsic subplots. i know pride was last month but It’s my birth month so queer books WILL remain 🏳️‍🌈🫂👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩

so far this is reminding me of the dream harbour series but if it was wlw and actually good

forgot how much i loathe the fact that women are treated as secondary creatures in majority of this text

the relationship dynamics are so good omg I’m eating maria and sabine uppp i love the queer undertones so much and the wlw yearning that’s subtly forming. maria getting jealous over the idea of sabine having other companions is so real. i hate maria’s husband I’m so excited to see If they kill him and run away together !!

this author is so good omg. this is the first of her work that I’ve read but I’m already eating it up!!

a sense of community would save both victor and the creature I’m convinced.

will never get over how visually appealing this book is. everything is described so vividly. i feel like I’m there with them. the film has only elevated this experience tbh. i read about the mountains and i can SEE the mountains. glorious.

just watched frankenstein (5 🌟’s — what a BRILLIANT film!!). i need to finish the book soooo badly the movie filled me with courage and determination. such a beautiful story portrayed with such depth. the visuals were astounding. I’m excited to read and visualise the scenery as the movie projected it to be. i love when books get adapted into film!! makes it so much more fun to read :’)

oh xul how I’ve missed you <3

reading this after reading riftborn and duskbound (? i think that’s what It’s called) has me EXCITED!!! so glad i paused it. those books were brilliant. so excited to see where this goes !!

holy shit holy shit holy shit that was the most intense shit I’ve ever read. callum could never have held her through that like blake did. there is no one else for her but him

this book is crazy omg i stayed up so long last night reading it. blake and aurora being fated mates? i CALLED IT!!!! their bond name is so beautiful but i truly don’t understand how she’s so shocked when everytime they were together, they’d both go wild. the scene with her brother made me emotional. i hate alexander !! i need book 3 immediately. also feel bad for callum i guess…. if i have to….
