This reads like the outline of a novel, but the fully written novel...

Wow, this poor girl. The sad part is she thinks she's so grown up, so mature, so in control. She has no idea...

This has to be satire. Ain't no way. This HAS to be satire!

Aye bendito. This character thinks she's special. She has no idea how basic she is. I am going to die reading about her being manipulated and abused. It's giving Surrender the Pink.

Okay, I'm sorry, I'm gonna backtrack: the way I WOULD HAVE NEVER LEFT THAT ROOM!!! A belligerent drunk enters a room and DEMANDS to speak with my lover/GF/friend/sister/some random woman I do not know--I AM NOT LEAVING. That man can kindly and swiftly GO AND FUCK HIMSELF.

Oh no, I hate this. Ain't no way I'm continuing this series. TRIGGER WARNING: PHYSICAL ABUSE

Wild to think that when Catherine was a young woman homosexuality wasn't as widely accepted (tolerated) as it is now. Except, I guess we're still dealing with this bullshit, so I shouldn't be too surprised.

oh God, it's gonna be one of those stories. Alex, get it together. You're too self aware to be THIS masochistic. Caleb is a twat. Catherine, find someone else. You can literally have anyone. Maybe pick someone who has their shit together? Who knows what they want? It's not your job to save her 🙄

Hmm. I don't know if these two fit together. We're still early, so we'll see. But I immediately don't like either of these two characters...

"I have just made a dangerous enemy." Is this book supposed to be intentionally kitschy? Campy? God, I hope so.

IDK what's going on, but I know Andrew is bad news. Dumb bitch Millie is definitely being played.

OMG i fucking hate this... Millie is ASININE. The husband is definitely abusive. The gardener ight be fucking the wife. The wife is...jury's out.

I feel like this is *so close* to being a good story, but it's just....not...

I feel like now we're getting somewhere...

not sure how I feel about this one...

Oh, the blacksmith and her wife, 😏I know those guys.

Exactly what I needed.

They say drowning is like dreaming

Randomly started watching TEEN WOLF. Why is this camp ass show so good?? LOL I'm loving Lydia; she doesn't get enough screen time.

I think I would've preferred this if Max was actually the villain. These authors are so boring. Max could've been a bad GF to Rachel while still being a good one to Ella. It happens. Poor Rachel is turning into the villain of the story and it's making this dull novel even more bland...

I hate this

Probably too soon to put this on my "did not enjoy shelf" but I can tell you right now, it's not looking too good. These characters are so whiny and dull and the love is instant? Oh brother... I think it's time for me to take a break from WLW because nothing has been hitting like it should.

SO much going on...

I stalled a little because of the holidays, but make no mistake, I'm loving this book! A close friend was just made aware that Alana is (born) female. I still think they are pushing, pretty heavy handedly, the idea that they are a girl and MUST be a girl. It is well intentioned, as they tell them (Alan) that they can still be powerful while being female, but I think the others are missing the point. Alan isn't a girl

My heart breaks for Alan, who is being told at every turn that they are a girl, and will be a woman. Babe, no! You can be a man if you want!

Ralon is a bitch

Let's go Alan(na)! This girl...boy(?!?) is queer AF even if she doesn't know it. Even if the author doesn't know it. Holy crow. Is this story gonna break my heart? My spirit? Or will it inspire?

Should I re-read ON THE SAME PAGE By Haley Cass? It wasn't my favorite of hers, but...idk. Everyone seems to be in love with Riley and Gianna's love. Am I missing something? Didn't hate it, just didn't love it.

What does Hannah think she knows??!?!?! lol Hannah is lucky she's so darn cute.

@JamesMcRay OMG I got to the line! "She didn't mean to realize she was in love with Hannah over Chicken Soup." It IS good 😭😭😭
