This book is going to completely ruin me, and I am going to love every second of it.

Been in a huuuuge book slump for almost two months now. Got this for Christmas and started it tonight. I'm only two stories in so far, but I think this just might get me out of my slump! :D

And I'm done and crying despite the entire tone of the book. I read this book faster than I expected to so I'm still digesting. What I do know is that I clearly enjoyed it and cannot wait for the movie.

Started this the other night just because. I needed a break from Grisha. This is definitely interesting.

Finished this the other night. It's extremely important and I'm in love with it and I think it needs more hype.

I'm so in love with this book. I think absolutely everyone needs to read it. It's so important. Jesus.

"Giving up is easy, not right. If doing the right thing were easy, nobody would ever do stuff they know is wrong, like kiss their daughter's dance instructor or rape an unconscious girl who already said no."

Fucking hell. The Darkling is a brilliant, evil son of a bitch. And Alina!!!! Mal!!!! What idiots!!! I'M SO FRUSTRATED RIGHT NOW. WHY IS THIS BOOK SO AWESOME???

"The problem with wanting is that it makes us weak."

I don't want these Alarkling feels because I expect it is a doomed ship. Then again, I've always been attached to doomed ships, so I guess this seems about right.

I'm in looooooooooooooooooooove.

I don't know what it is about this story, but I'm completely invested. Also, I'm in love with the Darkling. Surprise, surprise.

ooommmmfffggggg this is sooooooo goooooood. I don't even know why I like it so much, I just do. Why did I wait so long to start it????

Started this last night. I'm doing a buddy read of the trilogy with my sister. This should be fun.

My heart is going to explode from pure elation and satisfaction for the way this book, and this series, ended. I literally feel like it's going to burst open. I'm gonna go sob happily for the rest of time.

I AM SOBBING BIG, FAT, HAPPY TEARS. THIS IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AND PERFECT THING EVER.

I'M SO EXCITED, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.

Holy crap, this is painful.

I know Anna made me cry, but wow. I dunno if I expected this. I'm all over the place. And I don't want it to end, UGH.

"You know we all know you're short, right? It's not, like, a secret."
"Hush."
"I like that you're tiny. I like that I could carry you around in my pocket."
I shove his arm with my shoulder. "I said hush."
"And if we ever vacation together, you can sit on my lap to save airfare."

Oh, no. I'm already in love with Josh. He might end up ranking closely with Etienne.

WAIT, OMFG. THE FIRST MENTION OF ETIENNE I'M SO EXCITED. He still holds the number one spot in my heart as far as book boyfriends go.

"You know that because you asked me out, you're the one who has to pick the place, right?"
Throat. Dry.
Dry throat.
All the dryness in my throat.
... "Whatever you suggest." He grins. "I'll say yes. You'll definitely get a yes. If that helps."

GAH. I can't take the cute. And I just love Stephanie's writing so freaking much.

YAY, it's finally here and I'm finally diving in! I can't wait; I've been waiting three years for this!

Well, shit. I'm in the middle of another book right now (more like ten) but this was calling to me and now I'm completely hooked. I want something cute and sweet and funny and I know this author will deliver. It's so interesting so far. I'm super excited.

"You're not serious." I leaned in, closing the distance between us and knowing that I could get away with whatever I said next. "I'm as serious as a car crash." I gave her my most winning smile before heading back to the table. Started this last night while babysitting. I love Ezra's voice.

Ever been so consumed with feels you had to stop reading because you felt like your heart might explode? Me right now.

Just as Ava didn't think she could love Jesse more, I didn't think I could love the two of them more. But I do. I really, really do.

Took a slight break but I'm back in it. Anticipating all the drama that'll be coming veeeerrryyyy soooon.

There's nothing like gentle Jesse. Also, I really enjoy Ava's initiative when it comes to Jesse and Sarah and other bullshit.

"I've got to admire his determination, though." "Determination?" I feel my brow knit. "Determination to be challenging?" John stops as we reach Jesse's office. "I've never seen him so determined to live."

So, how does Ruth Quinn fit into this storyline? Because she definitely has some purpose. She feels a bit villainous. Guess we'll see.
