“i’ll see you in the next life.”

MY HEART—

genuinely what did i js read.

iv marie you are a mastermind

“a drag path” but it’s the inevitable prophecy written in the stars years ago that you can’t escape

this book feels like one big competition of “who can yearn the most while being totally aware of your inevitable destruction”….and i’m eating it up!!

guys I cannot stress this enough PLS read immortal consequences this fall

not only is the book amazing with TONS of representation, academic rivals to lovers, and atmospheric vibes, it’s perfect for fall, and the author is so incredibly sweet

THE YEARNING—

my heart can’t take this no more. he knew, he knew when she was in danger!!

he felt it instantly. an internal rupture. a cataclysmic shift. August tore his promise to shreds. his word was meaningless now. there was only one thing that mattered.

she was the only thing that had ever mattered.

your friendly reminder to check ur settings to make sure any info about yourself that you don’t want to be shared is private!! (location, birthday, etc.)

their banter is peak academic rivals to lovers 🤭

it has been AGES since i’ve read a book with trials that actually seems original

a school set in the afterlife is so intriguing!!

leo’s backstory is CRAZY

no one makes me more mad than the apparat

guys sometimes the random updates and polls trying to get frqs get to a point, they fill everyone’s page and notifications

i wish i wasnt spoiled that part bc i would’ve been SHOCKED.

i think booktok is ruining literature and it isn’t.

more people are reading, and it’s helping publishers

however, some authors are kicked to the curb for not meeting the standards, books are filled with tropes, and every popular book feels almost exactly the same as the other

people are skipping long paragraphs, only reading dialogue, someone said asking for no repetitive words

”percy,” apollo said, “i wouldn’t worry too much. the last great prophecy about you took almost seventy years to complete. this one may not even happen in your lifetime”

im gonna hold your hand while i say this…

when im crying and then my mom calls me downstairs but I can’t face them w my teary eyes bc wdym

”family, luke. you promised.”

btw he summoned a whole entire hurricane to ward off a literal TITAN at 15

don’t get me wrong, i’m enjoying this, but classics are sooooo hard for me to read 😭🙈

what i’ve been noticing that is that the last 2 years i was speeding thru books and both years my avg rating was 2.9 stars

this year i made my goal half as much as last year’s and i’ve been enjoying my reads sm more. moral of the story? read for entertainment—not to meet a goal or deadline 💌

”’she likes you, man.’
‘sure,’ i muttered. ‘she likes me for target practice.’
‘nah, they always do that. a girl starts trying to kill you, you know she’s into you.’”

”’so,’ my mom said when i was done with the story, ‘you wrecked alcatraz island, made mount st helens explode, and displaced half a million people, but at least you’re safe.’”

average day in percy’s life ig

the tiktokification of society is crazy

music being made js for viral moments using lyrics, any book you pick up will have the tropes in bold above the synopsis, and any popular book gets an adaptation 🫩

justice for nico 🥺

when he’s playing rock, paper, scissors against a guy with 100 hands so he chooses ‘gun’
