so is alea just another story manufactured from bits and pieces of what tanya felt was a success? how could she say she designs her characters by letting them introduce themselves to her while all she does is make similar characters with different names and slightly different backstories? why did i ever love alea? why did i cry, laugh and give it so much time of my life? surely not to find out about its origin.

this is breaking my heart bcs of how much alea resembles THIS. the scenes are so so similar and the plot of der ruf des wassers doesn't differ all that much if i only focus on the romance part. der sommer is a tasteless book with wasted potential, at least that's how it feels to an alea enthusiast.

tired of this sadly

idk why i did this to myself...
