Haha I'm dying over here 😂 (The fact that I'm sleep deprived probably doesn't help either 😂)

As messy as this book is, at least you can never guess what's going to happen next… Like, why is Jesus here and why is he helping to murder her husband?? 😭😂

The one-hour long nuclear power rant is genuinely the most unhinged thing I've listened to in months 😂

I dnfed it just a few months ago with the intention of coming back to it in a few years…Well, as it turns out, I need to watch the movie Doctor Sleep as soon as possible, so here I am again :D

“Love me, David. Make me warm” - 😬

“We know this because if one of a pair of identical twins has schizophrenia, there is a 50 per cent chance that their twin will also have the condition.” - This genuinely blows my mind, like why isn’t it 100%? But a perfect 50% is even crazier, how??

“I bare my teeth, a feral grin that would chill even the devil.” - Hahaha, this is so corny 😂

“I don’t care about fiction books—I only read the ones that are going to teach me something. Particularly about computer science and hacking. By now, there’s nothing those books can teach me anymore. I’ve mastered and then surpassed it.” - This book is pure comedic gold haha

I think the idea of reading one chapter a day until Halloween is great but why do the chapters have to be so short? What do you mean, I can only read two pages today? 😭

Oh lol, my uni is name dropped. Did not expect that jumpscare :D

Just finished Silksong! I can finally get back to reading :D

I swear, this book literally destroys every noble and magical notion I had about the Arthurian legends. I thought Merlin was a Gandalf-like figure and not a pervert who gets killed by his student for creeping up on her 😭

“I would not say that any of your heads are thick,” said he, when they were all outside the chamber where Llew sat, “for they are all solid from the front of the skull to the back; and always were. There is no room for even thickness there.” - I love archaic burns 😂

I have really enjoyed some of his earlier works, especially his more fantastical Dream Cycle, but now I finally get into the real shit! Next up: The Call of Cthulhu

I tried to quote one sentence here...ONE...and it was 700 characters over the character limit! That's the shit I'm dealing with here 🫠

I'll never finish this... They literally wasted an entire chapter describing the purchase of a piece of meat😭😫

“It is a terrible thing, this kindness that human beings do not lose. Terrible, because when we are finally naked in the dark and cold, it is all we have. We who are so rich, so full of strength, we end up with that small change. We have nothing else to give.” - Damn…

Look, I would never want anyone's coming out to their parents to end like that... but was it satisfying? Hell yeah! 😂

My crystal ball tells me that George will announce Winds at WorldCon sometime this week, so I'm starting my reread again to prepare myself. (Just let me cope in peace 🥲)

You know it's going to be good when the character you're most excited about is on the cover! And yes, I'm talking about the goat!

„And with that Arthur woke up, and asked if he had slept at all.
‘Yes, lord,’ said Owain, ‘quite a while.’
‘Is it time to go and eat?“ - My relatable king!

Who thought it was a good idea to let the two biggest yappers in horror collaborate??? I will never finish this 😭

Umm, what do you mean that the sword in the stone is not the real Excalibur??? 😵‍💫

Um, what do you mean it's coming out in less than an hour??? Am I going crazy because I was so sure it wasn't supposed to come out until next year??
Anyway, I need to reorganise my day for tomorrow 👀

Bless you, YouTube algorithm, for recommending me a random hour long essay on this forgotten gem of a fantasy novel!

Kellhus is the worst pos I've ever encountered in a story and even after seven books he still manages to twist the knife, again and again and again... :(

I didn't expect to empathise so much with this cannibalistic little girl. I need a happy ending for her :(

There are still 40 pages left and I'm already completely devastated...

“Her mouth, empty of teeth, empty of jawbone, empty of words, filled with blood, instead, until it spilled over her lips and down her stricken, shaken face. It was too much. She died, her sister Quinta said, a ‘painful and terrible death’. She was just twenty-four years old.” - Fucking hell…
