“Why would anyone in their right mind want to be a teenager more than once?”

Umm..me ?

On the other hand, I have SO many questions.
I hope this book answers them

*spoilers*

I never liked Ryle and now my dislike is even justified.
The thing is…why is she staying ? LEAVE NOW.
Like literally, he’s just gonna get worse.

But…I bet that’s not what’s gonna happen

“When he was wiping that cow shit on me, it was quite possibly the most turned-on I have ever been.”

Uh…😧

*slight spoilers*

Wait…that’s it ?
No misunderstandings or ‘will they, won’t they’ situation ??

I read too much slow burn 😅

“I tried to recall if I’d walked around after dark with the light on at night, because all I normally wear in my room at night is a T-shirt.”

What about curtains ?? 😭

“He laughs and then looks at me inquisitively. “What’s another great mystery of Boston?”
“Your name.”

I literally shut the whole book 😬

Hello everyone,

I’m pretty curious about something. There’s a place to share writing here in gr. Though, I haven’t read many and definitely not in story form.

Does anyone have any writing in gr to share ? I’ll like to read it if it’s ok.

I like the idea of trying out different life choices that you regret not making before.
But I just feel…like I can see where this is going.

I hope this novel does surprise me

“The lie—a white one—came automatically. The door wasn’t locked; I didn’t think I’d even hooked up the chain”

And that’s exactly how you get murdered or..in this case kidnapped 🙄

Almost done. I liked Jude WAY better in book 2 than book 1. In fact I liked everything much better in book 2 including the characters.
But I feel like Jude finally had a good character development.

Also, I feel a bit dumb to admit this but I still don’t know who the title refers to until now.

I’m just finished with book 1 and this is literally the best thing that has happened in this entire novel 😍
On the other hand, I’m not enjoying this that much.
At best I think it’s a 3 stars

“I thought I was playing the game of pissing off people who hated me already and eating the consequences.”

And my question is WHY ?
oh yeah, because she’s ya fantasy heroine and she can do anything…

SPOILERS !

Prince carden getting cruel treatment was predictable, I bet he’s also planning to take over the throne or something.
Hmm…for now this book isn’t standing out from other ya fantasy novels, but let’s see…

Ok..honest question.
Why do all the ya fantasy books has main character of this exact character type ? From personality to their thoughts to their relationship with the love interest.

It might only be the books I’ve read but…

Why are these characters jinxing themselves so much ?
I don’t know the story but I know for sure that what they would happen, would not happen
And what they say won’t happen, would definitely happen

*very slight spoilers*

“I can’t believe my aunts’ rivalry with each other is jeopardizing us getting away with murder”

I can, I totally can.
You’ll be surprised to find how far auntie rivalry can go 🥲

Oh my god, I didn’t expect this novel to be so thrilling and….dark.

“I’m basically driven by a mixture of caffeine and familial guilt.”

This book has no job being this relatable

*slight spoilers*

“(There might be insta-love and also someone might die. We’ll see.)”

Sure, looking forward to it 😌

Umm..WHAT ??

It’s gonna go downhill from here, isn’t it ?

Right…I should probably step back while I can, but I’m gonna finish and regret it anyway 🙂

*slight spoilers*

“Tal perked up. “How do you know a sea witch?”
Athlen blushed. “Do you think mermen have the ability to have legs whenever they want? I had to make a bargain.”

Umm…ok Ariel

*slight spoilers*

So, one of the most prominent trope I’ve noticed is a lot of ‘chance meeting’. Which I’m fine with, my only question is how are they not awkward or even a bit distant ?
They meet for a few minutes then meet again for few minutes days later but they act like they know each other very well ?

It’s not bad, it’s just bugging me a bit….

“Simon repeated doggedly, unmoved by Poirot’s lighter note, “Jackie’s straight!”

Oh god…I’ll never get used to the old language.

*slight spoilers*

“But in Simon’s attitude he could find nothing but male impatience and annoyance”

I also see a sexist, a cheater, a creep and overall the most disgusting person ever 🔪 🔪

*slight spoilers*

“And he allowed himself to be—bought?”

EXACTLY !!
like what ?? Is he an object ? Obviously he chose linnet for her wealth and beauty.

“won’t that be rather tiresome? If any misfortunes happen to my friends I always drop them at once!”

If someone says that to me, I’m dropping them first.
I don’t care how ‘practical’ it is, why would I want to be around someone who sees money in people ??

“Roma wasn’t sure where it had gone. Her coat had one shallow pocket. Her dress inside was only a long slip of fabric with a multitude of beads. How is she concealing all her weapons?”

But no, seriously how ??
I want to know the answer too !!

11 chapters done and the world building still went over my head. I really hope I’m getting the theme correct at least

*MAJOR SPOILERS*

“Dev Deshpande. Are you interested in becoming my prince?”
If happily ever after is something you choose, then Dev decides to choose it for himself. “Yes,” he says.”

Me right now :
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
