I’m so close but I’m falling asleep. Glad it’s almost over

I’m so out of touch from reading I FORGOT
I OWN THE PHYSICAL BOOK 😭 i just realized 85% of the way through that it’s been on my TBR stack this whole time (I’ve been listening to the audiobook and then literally waited on hold for the ebook for a few days)

It’s still not good but at least I have real paper now

I really hope I didn’t spend a lot of money on this copy

Another thing that’s odd. They use “Trees” as a swear word or like in replace of god. Like they say “oh trees” or “trees, that’s crazy”. I get the trees are sacred or whatever but I find it makes me laugh in a bad way

Also, all of their names of odd like you could have spelt ravyn as raven and jespyr as Jesper. Feels like we’re being edgy just to be edgy

The author keeps referring to Ravyn as “The Captain of the Destriers” and it’s annoying. Like yes we get it he’s the captain, but the phrase is being over used.

Also, the just kissed but I don’t know why. I didn’t feel enough “will they won’t they” / “omg why won’t they admit they like each other” energy. Not enough bonding beforehand imo
