(Intending on Reading ‘The Green Knight’ only)
But I lowkey forgot this is like, a Christmas story. We used to be a SOCIETY with the BALLS to have VIOLENT AND SUPERNATURAL CHRISTMAS STORIES, we need more of this. Less Santa Claus and more ghosts getting up to mischief

Now finished ‘Pearl’ as well. Less enjoyable as ‘Sir Gawain’ but well written and a great story overall. Heartbreaking and evidently medieval in tone and intent, but also it felt a little long and drawn out; like the purpose could be achieved in 5-10 less stanzas. Unrelated but I also feel called out because the pearl poet basically beat me to an idea I had for a poem so idk what to do with that :/

~Completed ‘Sir Gawain,’ currently debating on whether to read any of the additional poems included in this small collection, since I had originally planned on just reading that one. But also yeah it’s fantastic, a great story, some weird pacing and moral ideas at times, but awesome overall. We need more crazy Christmas stories
