the way this book has a bigger character glossary than a Brandon Sanderson is absolutely frying me 💀💀💀💀

“and there’s no battle cry this time, no lies of elation, of glory, of grandeur, of nobility, of triumph, of dignity, of honor, of sublimity, of rapture, of ascendence of immortality which leaves only the lie and the lie goes like this - you deal this one card honestly, this one single card cleanly off the top of the deck and maybe all the bad deals of the past will be pardoned.” I need this book to win AWARDS!

you know when you start a book and you’re immediately like yeah…I’m going to need to read everything they’ve ever written….

“Yes, all these feelings are inconsequential and I don’t have to feel them. I just peek into their cage and watch them looking up at me hungrily, waiting to be fed.” Disassociation final boss!!!

biblically accurate Death Eater’s meeting (orgy)

couldn’t be worse than Wolfsong!

reading the last 300 pages of a Brando Sando book is like running a leisurely marathon and deciding to run the last mile at a 5:00 pace

The Nale and Kaladin fight scene just restored my faith in the written word fr 😭😭😭

listen, I’m a strong supporter of the itty bitty titty committee but oh my god if I have to hear her complain about how small her breasts look ONE MORE TIME I will crash OUT!!! Somebody buy this girl her first push-up bra right now!!!

JOURNEY BEFORE DESTINATION I say as I cry my way through this Yellow Pages-sized book

“I felt the pain subsiding the deeper I went into the song, the more dark layers I heard. I thought about how it must feel to be Thom Yorke, to have created such a perfect exorcism of one’s own misery, to be able to perform it whenever he wanted.” Average reaction to Radiohead!!!!

aurafarming: reading RFK in line at Disneyland

“Deep down she suspected being in love was just two people lying to each other, concealing their violence, and so Peter’s proposal was thus misaligned with her priority to look out for herself.” Giving Alice my therapist’s number right NOW!!

competitive beyond common rationale and reason? Alice, I fuck with you HEAVY.

I felt god in that confessional booth chapter.

I’m on my knees praying that this book lives up to the hype fr

“Then, at long last, he could end himself-and in so doing, grant true justice to those he had murdered. Quietly, he blessed Kaladin for giving him this gift.” not cool Brandon ☹️☹️☹️

I’m just saying, if I had the chance to ascend to Godhood you couldn’t CATCH me losing sleep over that decision! I’d have that shit on!

Dalinar sending BARELY stable Kaladin to go play therapist to two of the most mentally ill men in the Cosmere: 🙂👍

I feel the need for a chemical bath after every time Bachman talks about a woman 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

“I could win this” me, not even halfway through the book

after a cumulative 5 hrs on the Cosmere Wiki, I am finally ready 🫡

me when booktok gasses up the right book: 😨😨

I feel like the natural evolutionary final form of Ali Hazelwood’s daddy dom fetish was ALWAYS going to be age-gap, and that explains why reading this is like doing crack…

fucking boring as fucking fuck holy fuck

time for my token “I just finished two massive bangers and now I must read filth” book!!

“Ye’s rational consideration of humanity’s evil side began the day she read Silent Spring.” real asf!!

reading about a ring of men that prey on women that live alone while being a woman that lives alone??? 0/10 experience 😵‍💫😵‍💫

“You are such a peasant! Your words are always wrong! A stupid speech!” wow get absolutely WRECKED Ajax!!

“If I ever come home again and see/with my own eyes my native land and wife and home/I hope some total stranger comes by and instantly chops off my head/unless I smash this bow of mine to pieces and hurl it in the bright fire./This stupid thing does not help me at all.” Men stay dramatic in every century!!!!
