👏hell👏yes👏

9781547602186 is finally complete. This is number 1 on my Christmas wish-list!!!

- so much about The Outsiders
- so many name drops including: SJP and Tom Cruz!!!

I am LOVING his stories!!! And it’s voiced by him.

Coolest facts:
- he grew up w Charlie Sheen
- his mum is the most 70s woman ever
- he was on the set of Star Wars when it was made

Okay but I don’t ship Charlie and Bill… bring back Jesse!

- we finally found out why Mike hates his family (the Mum sucks)
- Jesse is objectifying Charlie
- Bill’s the nice guy
- JJ actually does know a guy called Billiam, which was hilarious

Prediction: Charlie’s parents are getting a divorce, but haven’t told anyone yet.

I really hope Charlie doesn’t end up liking Brooke (Danny’s gf). I hope Brooke’s exposes to be some horrible human who Danny breaks up with, or something.

Tomorrow I get to meet Veronica Roth.

What should I ask/say to her?!?

Okay finally we are catching up to where the synopsis starts!

I ship Jesse and Charlie so much!!!

So far I’ve read an entire paragraph (each) about:
- the texture of her hair
- the shape of a guy’s nose
- x8 paragraphs about how her bedroom is set out

There’s so much detail…

God damn this is hot

There’s not much left! I feel like I’m halfway through this story. I can’t see how anything can be resolved

They kissed they kissed they finally kissed and it’s all so cliche but I love the fluff!

Yay, I don’t hate the main character anymore. She has depth!!!

She’s so ditsy… I loved the premise of this, but this main character is ruining it for me!

It’s hard to get past how impractical this library is.

Hi my OTP is almost together. This slow burn is amazing.

Luke is pining for Elliot, and Elliot, for the first time ever, is the one without a clue.

I WANT THEM TO KISS!!!

I’ve only been able to read a few pages, but here’s what’s happened:

- They’re at the Harpies Camp
- Luke grew wings overnight, and told everybody that Elliot was his bf
- Luke and Elliot had a fight, so Elliot slept with Dale
- Dale is a jerk and judges Luke, so Elliot goes off at him

I just travelled 3 freaking hours to get an email that my lecture has been cancelled.

Today is the worst day ever.

Please consider joining my new GR Group: Young Adult Hub

I NEED BOOK FRIENDS!

I'm thinking of running my own Goodreads Club. Would anybody be interested in joining?

Here's what I'm thinking:
- fun reads
- fun watch-a-longs
- fun memes
- fun reading sprints
- meeting lots of fun book lovers who also love Goodreads

I'm also thinking:
- giveaways
- competitions

What do you think? Is there anything that's a hit or miss for a GR club for you?

- Elliot told Serene that he also likes guys
- Elliot has met his mum
- His Mum sucks

Less has happened in the sector.

Elliot’s basically going to rebound after rebound.

- Luke gets knocked out by Dale who was showing off to Elliot
- Elliot gets Luke and him as the leads in Radiant and Jewel (Romeo and Juliet)
- Adana is playing Jewel: she’s a mean blonde and ends up having sex w Elliot after…
- Elliot was friend zoned by Mayra or whatever her name is

- Luke is a gay

- Serene is back

I’ve never related more to a character. I’m so thankful I’m reading this book.

Here’s what you’ve missed:
- Elliot went away for the summer
- Got a bf; Jase
- Once he was happy, his relationship broke down
- he returned to the Borders
- Serene hasn’t returned

Everybody is passed awkward puberty and it’s just ridiculously hot people everywhere.

Okay holy crap, these 14 year olds got up to a lot more than I ever did:
- I was right, Luke is gay.
- Serene not only likes Elliot: THEY HAD SEX. MULTIPLE TIMES. And they’re FOURTEEN.

What? How? What?

Again: what?!?

Guess who turned 19 today? Me!

Books I got as presents:
Herding Cats
Tell Me No Lies
The Upside of Unrequited

All I want to do is curl up in bed and appreciate books ❤️.

Okay WOW Elliot’s life as a 14 year old was intense.

Highlights:
- first battles
- Mrs Weasley, uh, I mean, Rachel, has an open relationship and I’m scared she’s being a predator to Elliot
- Luke totally has the hots for Elliot; not Serene!!!

I love that Serene grew up where females were seen as superior, and her society was matriarchal. Of course, it’s spot on for commentating the absurdity of the patriarchy’s rationale, but it’s also enjoyable to see her with such confidence.

I don’t care much for Serene. I want to see where Luke and Elliott’s friendship(/romance?) leads.

Brennan’s writing is great! I didn’t enjoy how we were thrust into the magical realm, but she makes up for it with a giant chunk of world-building.
