chat i am so sick and i honestly cannot see myself getting better which is so fucking scary. and fast, easy, fun reads to lift my mood and get me out of this slump?? i need them 💔

in a reading slump because i had a PTSD trigger last week (not from a book) and my baseline anxiety now is borderline panic attack (normally it’s not this bad) 24/7… it’s kind of hard to read under these conditions 😭

did she seriously just trauma dump to Draco 😭😭 i can’t fucking take this seriously

someone give this chick an x-ray of her chest bc if i have to read another paragraph of breathing being painful with the personification of air im gonna lose it :3

“It was a breeding program being passed off as an economic solution.” WELL THERES RHE HANDMAIDS TALE PLAGIARISM LMFAO

“”Creative.” Ferron’s voice was colder than the wind. Fingers gripped her arm, and heat surged through her, her heart suddenly racing, hot blood pulsing through her body.” is this not the set up of a fantasy romance? be so fucking for real.

“Perhaps that ouroboros dragon was not merely a pretentious decoration but something the Ferrons prided themselves on. An omen of a destructive, insatiable hunger which left nothing but ruin in its wake.” thank you Sen i’d be lost on the symbolism without you

“His hair had been dark, now it was colourless. While the pallor of his skin didn’t come from age, he looked as if he’d been bleached in moonlight. There were no veins visible at all, as if his blood were quicksilver.”
ur telling me this is her rapist

hermione: being tortured
my headphones: IM ADDICTED TO YOU DONT YOU KNOW THAT UR TOXIC

this is suffering from over complication. i think Sen went crazy trying to find replacements for HP aspects and in doing so she made an incredibly complex magic system. not in a good way. i’m a HP virgin, so i don’t have any context for this either which is not helping the readability.

a lot of slicing through metaphorically

how many damn times will “her vision turn read”

okay 3 paragraph info dump 😍 truly beautiful stuff here guys

there’s a lot of red vision, screaming, tubes and shit. also none of the “amazing prose” i’ve heard people farting about.

hey chat, i got my hands on a copy. prepare to be sick of me. i will not stop until i’ve found every disgusting thing in here, be assured! i’m just so sick of people on this app so that is why im doing this.

that preface was so pretentious it might have ruined the book for me but i’ll keep reading LMFAO

shoutout to my blood pressure for being heart attack level high lately ❤️ really cool stuff

“dark academia” but really it’s just gothic fall literature with no academia 💔

it is time

adam is living a fucking horror movie

people don’t know the difference between dark romance and horror erotica anymore and ITS SO FRUSTRATING. particularly when horror erotica is marketed as dark romance. i don’t want to accidentally read that 🥀

i need to start making a dent in the physical books i own but my e and library books keep looking at me like: 🫦

the cover is HORRENDOUS

this might be crazy to say but i miss the Ronan-centric ness off tdt

Gansey: i hate liars
Gansey when Blue lies: …that was hot

my inflammation result just came back and it’s the highest it’s ever been. my GI will ask for a colonoscopy/endoscopy again but they make me incredibly sick. i feel sick, but i keep that reading grind going. honestly, when im not reading, i keep thinking about how sick i am. it’s miserable lol. shoutout to books & reading for being the best coping skill
