“Who is free, who loves another?”

this quote has been repeated a bunch of times, and yet it makes me feel nothing 😵‍💫

was there really not a better way to learn Vivian’s tragic backstory? having her monologue for 10 pages is just not - - - ……. 🫥

“It was past supper, which meant my father was drifting between verb tenses, transitioning gently from drinking to drunk.”

lol

it’s so weird that she keeps calling Owen “boy” lol

“I could deny my destiny, and even my queen. I could never deny you.”

why not, girl???? I don’t get ittttttt

I wish I had gotten to see the romance develop, instead of being dropped in the story when they already have the hots for each other.

“[I] let one hand slip between my legs, thinking of your collarbones and your long limbs and your quick, helpless gasp. I hardly lasted a minute; it was not easy, riding day after day with you in my lap.”

why are they so horny for each other?

why does she want to kiss him??

ohhhh it’s Una’s pov now!

Una is aware she’s gonna come back to life??

I don’t feel Una’s love for the Queen

STOP 👏🏻 BEING 👏🏻 HORNYYYY

“I would reach up and bury my fingers in your hair, pull you down to me. You would let me. Then you would let me go to my knees and give you what you wanted, for as long as you wanted it, until your thighs were slick ”

Horny jail! And why do you even like her like that??? I don’t feel it…….

« “Turn around and see.” I did not; this, I thought, was the sort of behavior that ought to earn a man a medal. »

yuck ???

stop being horny!!

he’s so nonchalant about traveling in time

“A country with colonies is called an empire, son.”

period!

enlisting in war because he wanted to be brave like the girl from a legend… ridiculous lol

I don’t understand why he loves her

they censored the name Ulla in the audiobook, but it’s still visible in the ebook lol

“We might not have been written in the stars above, but I made sure we were in these.”

okay, that’s actually very sweet.

“Don’t cry, pretty girl. I’ll be back soon,”

EWWWW why did i just get the biggest ick from him calling her “pretty girl”?? 🥴💀🥴💀🥴💀 there’s nothing inherently wrong with that nickname, it’s just that, to me, it sounds like something you’d call your dog, not your fake gf lolololololol

I understand that we all have some confidence issues, but the fact that Izzy keeps thinking that Noah will get tired of her (even though he’s been nothing but loving) is getting soooo annoying! Like, girl, stop with the self deprecating whining!!!

well they have FINALLY told the other they like them 😮‍💨 we still have 22% to go though, and idk how much the author can drag this, at this point 🥴😵‍💫

lol, it’s been months and Noah didn’t even tell his best friend about his fake gf. That’s how irrelevant this friend is 🥴

“On my loneliest days, when it’s dark and rainy and nothing can distract me, I wish I had someone next to me. It’s that gnawing feeling that crawls out whenever I spend too much time in my own head. The feeling that I’ll never find someone to spend my quiet hours with, someone to share in the mundane parts of my life, someone on the other end of the phone to look at the same moon.”

that hit close to home

“I wish I was a character in one of [her books] so that all my decisions could be plotted out for me by someone else, and so I could get my happy ending.”

girl me too

“I don’t know what Izzy and I are doing anymore. Obviously, we both have feelings for each other”

UGHHHHHH so you are aware your feelings are reciprocated!!!! then why am I still hereeeeeeee??? 😫😫😫😫😫 such a waste of time!

okay so if the ex Izzy was trying to get rid of was expelled, then why are you still fake dating?

Ryan (Izzy’s ex) is cartoonishly antagonistic.
