“Yes, my wife … I loved her—and I was very proud of her. She was so pretty—and so gay.”

Ah…yes. When was this novel written again ?
That certainly made me pause though..

“Motherly indeed! Damn’ fool not to remember that Richmond was twenty-eight to Leslie’s twenty-nine”

Umm…I think he’s trying to make a point but…I don’t get it ?

Yup, I’ve barely progressed.
I’m feeling kinda unfocused these days. I think I’ll keep this aside for a while and read something more comforting

Kind of spoilers, maybe ✨

Bruh, what’s up with the mc meeting with kings or crown princes so casually ? Don’t they have any other job than parading as a common person.
I’m not asking for realism but Still…

Ok, what have we got here. A society which is divided by the powerful and weak, an MC who is of the weak (but probably has a secret power), and a rebel group which has been working on secret.

Why does this sound so familiar ?

Ok, there is only 30 pages left and a lot to unpack. Like….??

“Does don’t banter with extremely hot and possibly smart and interesting guys who are very definitely players count as a philosophy?”

No, but ‘I shouldn’t be judgmental of people at first encounter’ does

“Overhearing this conversation reminds me of the visions. Why am I being subjected to knowing the secret lives of other people?”

Because you’re the main character.

Everything aside, Nicola yoon’s writing is amazing. I love how easy it is to read.

My pronunciation is so bad. I have been pronouncing Achilles as A-Chi-Lees, with ‘ch’ as the ‘chair’. I have been pronouncing it wrong until now 🤦‍♀️

“Belcalis rolls her eyes. “You actually believe that dreck? Purity is an illusion. So is absolution and anything you read in that cursed book. You’d think you fools would understand that by now.”

Ok, that made me surprised. How is the rudest Alaki so far the one to say most sensible thing ?

It’s so real to see the riots through a personal account. This novel does a hopeful note but it’s still seem so real.

Chinese, Malays and Indians uniting together as a community to help each other is so heartwarming to watch. Even if the backdrop of this story is distressing

I’m actually reading the webtoon of this.
The story is so well written. It portrays topics like mental health, racism..so well. It is kinda distressing to read though.

Ok, fine…I’m now going to power read this at 2.5 speed just so that I can watch her get stronger and maybe fight back.

Spoilers please ! Pls tell me it is gonna be better.

Ok, I barely started and there is already extreme sexism and xenophobia. I really need some extra strength to read because I’m already having a bad feeling,

This is the most I’ve used of google translate in a while, but it’s all worth it. I’m not missing anything.

The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo
The Spanish Love Deception
Six of crows

If you are someone who is active in goodreads and still haven’t read any of the above books….
then I applaud you because you are the type of person who can withstand any form of pressure.

If I had a nickel for every time I loved a book where two boys fall in love knowing it’s their very last day together… I’ll have 2 nickels, Which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice.

Me : I love slow burns, a good romantic development is important. Why would book characters get together that fast ?

Also me when the characters share even a bit of romantic tension -

*Spoilers!!*

Ok, so now that it’s revealed that there is one person responsible for all the missing bodies. I think Tio Cartiz seems sus, like he has all the checkpoints of a murderer

“My brother is gonna kill me,” he groaned against his palms.
“Looks like someone already beat him to it,” Maritza said, reaching out to poke her finger right through Julian’s elbow.”

Lol, loving this book so far.

Fifth husband, Harry Cameron done.
Yeah, he is definitely the best ‘husband’ so far. Also, I love how he got three adjective perfectly describing him.

I’m a bit down reading his part though
But …it’s gonna get worse from here isn’t it ?

Fourth husband done.
Well, Mr clever is certainly clever and the best husband so far. Though, that’s not saying much as the bar is on the floor.
This was good so far but I feel the heartbreaking part is coming…

The next is Harry Cameron, let’s see what’ll happen.

Third husband done and another husband I don’t like.

At least, mr gullible is better than the previous one but I can’t believe mr poor is the best until now. Standards are on the floor currently.

This section was sweet and kind of funny at the beginning messy, complicated and kind of ugly at the end. Let’s see how mr clever is.

Ok, second husband done. Wow, that was long but a lot happened…
Very eager to read the next husband.

Another husband already ? That was quick. And oh god..I don’t even know what to say.

I’m completely over wattpad and probably would never go back there. However, the one thing I do miss about it is how we could comment in literally any line we want in a chapter. So, when you see a really iconic dialogue, then you know the comment section is gonna be lit 🔥.

Yeah, I have a very mixed opinion towards this novel. I think I was expecting something else.
