Status Updates From The Fragile Threads of Powe...

Been reading this throughout work shifts. Haven’t been updating goodreads. Whoops

Me on my way to look ahead to assure myself that Kell ends up okay 🧍‍♀️💀

Plot lines where a character loses the ability to use magic <<<<<

Oh shit moment

god im so happy

Did not finish 😭 I need to stop trying to get into sci-fi fantasy. I never love it as much as I want to. I was looking forward to this book and hopeful that it would become a trilogy that I would love. I felt like I had to force myself to read and was only on pg 177 (of 655 😧) after a week and decided I’d rather be reading something else right now. I may come back to it, I may not. Onto the next!

Aw, Ned. Bless.

Yeah, Tes is one of my fav characters this book, shes very smart and innovative, her backstory made sense and relatable, she represents the struggle for women to not be objectified (if u overthink it)

Im glad she survived and she is able to do her work at peace with Maris, shell do excellent

all this set up better be worth it

My library loan expired and I didn’t finish 😭

And that was the madness, the cruelty, that life was fragile, and he had so much to love, and spent all his time mourning the loss before he suffered it.

“The pirate life clearly suits you.”
Kell raised a brow. “Excuse me,” he said with feigned indignance, “I’m a privateer,” and it was such an eerily perfect impression of Alucard, from the quirk of his mouth to the lift of his chin and the tone of his voice, that Rhy lost the last dregs of his composure, and threw back his head and laughed, and then he was on his back, the night sky sliding in and out of focus.
“I’m

Ohhhhhh nowww it’s coming together

Rhy managed a smile, but it was thin. “Thanks to you, I think I’ll live.” He noticed Lila and rallied. “Ah, how’s my favorite captain?”
Alucard shot Rhy an insulted look.

“Damn,” muttered Rhy.
“Oh, you thought he wouldn’t notice?” chided Alucard.
The king stared at the ring for a long moment, watching it grow brighter, until the light of the magic filled the room, casting the killer’s body and the bloody bath in grim relief.
“Go on,” insisted Alucard with troubling glee. “I can’t wait to see Kell’s face.”

I’m putting V.E. Schwab on pause for now, not a goodbye but I’ll see you later 🫡 Love her storytelling, but just not in the mood for this.

god lila just sucks so bad. such an infuriating character to read

Oh yay action and plot, sort of, finally. PS someone please go kill Lila, we all agree she’s the real villain here.

HOLD ON

rereading a fav bc im in a slump 💃🏼

Oh, Lila. How I’ve missed you.

HELLO WHO???? DO MY EYES SEE THIS RIGHT??????

There are so many things happening all at once and I'm curious as to how to book will end.

Well the hands defeat was quite honestly quick, I feel this Part 11 was rushed slightly, but nonetheless it was a good read

Tes is brilliant, she is willing to literally sacrifice it all for the better of everyone, even though it has unexpected consequences in White London, Kosika will soon cross paths with Red and Grey London Antaris, should be fun
Tieren and Tes moment was sweet, Vares is a cool name from way back

kell :(

sometimes a family is a bisexual man, a gay man, a lesbian and a child 🤞

I’m already so excited

LOVE THIS! The dynamic in the royal family is the healthiest, most understanding family dynamic I have ever seen in a book; truly beautiful.

Everything is coming together!!!
