i'm taking a break from this cause i feel like it'll take a huge toll on me if i don't😀

holy fuck... :D

yk that feeling when ur like 250 pages into a book & everything's finally going well but... there's still 75 pages left and ur just worried?

now imagine you're 200 pages into a book and something AMAZING happened and ur just like so happy u could cry and... there's 600 fucking pages left😭

no cause the irrational fear i feel before reading any sentence of this book... it's fucked up💀

“There were times when the pressure to achieve happiness felt almost oppressive, as if happiness were something that everyone should and could attain, and that any sort of compromise in its pursuit was somehow your fault.”

i love this sm already, i love the characters especially jude! i didn't read the synopsis so i have no idea what i got myself into.. ik it broke a lot of ppl so i'm scared for my sanity after this

i was already like 100 pages in but i'm restarting it.. i just wanna be sure to read it well this time cause i kinda skimmed at first I'm ngl😭 not because i wasn't enjoying it, i tend to do that when reading cause i just wanna know what'll happen next asap💀

i needed a good cry so i decided to start this but... i did not expect it to be this heavy :D welp i stopped reading it a few hours ago, i'll try and pick it up again tomorrow..
