END STRETCH YOU GUYS!! only 200 pages left lets go!!

only woman turning into dragons or having dragon like powers bc men care too much about rules and power is such a cool thing

Tenar, my love.

The fourth book was jarring in a good way. It talked about womanhood and power and disabilty in an actual beautiful way. The end was jarring and I wish the end would have taken a lil longer but also I am glad it didn't bc that shit was scary.

"But even so she did not feel she understood his shame, his agony of humiliation. Perhaps only a man could feel so. A woman got used to shame"

i am sorry?? tehanu might be my favourite book so far

third book done!! i always love books that deal with dying in a nice way and this did. because only because of death we have passions and can feel alive and i like that thought

also very excited to read tehanu now! very excited to see tenar again!

"The dragons! The dragons are avaricious, insatiable, treacherous; without pity, without remorse. But are they evil? Who am I, to judge the act of dragons? They are wiser than men are. It is with them as with dreams. We men dream dreams, we work magic, we do good, we do evil. The dragons do not dream. They are dreams. They do not work magic: it is their substance, their being. They do not do; they are."
