5 FREAKING STARS

THIS BOOK. oh my days. i felt like a child again when i read this book, and cried like one too. This book is brimming with an innocent and hopeless kind of love that tore my heart open. They are not innocent people, but they share an innocent love. And I think that’s my favourite thing about this book.

I need y’all to read this im deadass, the writing is spectacular.

two quotes i really enjoyed

“I have heard that men who live by a waterfall cease to hear it - in such a way did I learn to live beside the rushing torrent of his doom”

“He seemed to sit across the world from me then, though he was so close I could feel the warmth rising from his skin”

“he said what he meant; he was puzzled if you did not. some people might have mistaken this for simplicity. but is it not a sort of genius to cut always to the heart?” PERIOD

i’m a big fat liar the way i said i’d read james baldwin only to turn around and embrace this beautiful book in my loving arms…okay so basically my acotar hangover was NOT getting any better so my new tactic is ‘read another book that’s romantasy adjacent to bring yourself back to earth’ this is PERFECT iykyk. I feel like I need to gently make my way back to general fiction from fantasy/tales/lores
