“Why must I endure when I can end it? Ruin what wants to ruin me first.”
“You will anger the gods!”
“I guess you’ve never seen me angry.”

Yes girl! The more he hurts her, the more he tries to break her, the more dangerous she becomes. That woman is unbreakable.

Kind of boring

didn't realize I was so close to the end

I thought it couldn't get more heartbreaking between them,joke’s on me

It couldn’t be possible for one to feel like that for another. Not for me at least. Not for what I was. Yet…he’d felt all of that and still lied to me.
——
He made one last attempt to reach me and when I backed away, his expression cracked. “Please.”
“You want to take his place, Your Majesty. Then have his place back.”

this certainly changes the story

this might be the only series where it’s not bothersome that the protagonist gets kidnapped so many times, after all she’s always aware there’s a trap, uses the kidnapping as part of her plan, finds out informations and then kicks everyone’s ass and saves herself

this is pain after pain

the grey skies pouring soft flakes over the forest floor. “Mother said that if she ever left us for the heavens, she’d become a winter sky, full of snowy storms. Will we make pretty winter skies, too?”
——
“Tell me you know that I’ve never pretended for a moment. Tell me that you know that. Do I love that terribly? Do I not know how to love? Have you not felt it at all?”

“I beg to differ. But then again you do like me begging”

today’s reading quotes

“You were my most selfish act, but the one I regret the least. Perhaps I don’t regret it at all.”
“I would have killed you that day.”
“And I would have let you.”

“Sometimes the best solution is the lesser violence.”Snow threw her head back in a laugh and when no one else followed suit, she straightened. “Oh, you were being serious.”

“Am I in your cage or are you in mine?”

This is excruciating. On the one hand this whole terribly complicated situation with Kilian and her feelings are destroying her, she is suffering so much; on the other hand, this man really would love her through anything.

I’m living for Snow

“You cannot find them, not without me. You will have to turn this realm upside down and inside out,” her uncle threatened. 
She scoffed. “Upside down and inside out it is.” 

“Simple diplomacy.” 
“You mean threats?” Alaric asked. 
“Why are you repeating my words?”

“I stopped being petty when I found being vindictive more productive”

1. these two idiots in love will break my heart.
2. Snow is here insulting and killing people and I'm cheering for her, like, you go girl!

from heart wrenching pain to scorching chemistry in the same chapter. I’m living for this.

I finally found a new book to obsess over, I’m so happy I could cry 🥹

Snowlin is the queen. I'm here cheering every time she murders or insults someone.

I don't know if I'm on an unlucky stream of disappointing books or if it’s not the general quality of my readings that’s gone down but my tolerance for them

I was planning on reading something else but I have so few urban fantasy in my 2024 reads, I miss them.
🤞🏻

I hate when I have an idea on how to rate a book but than as I keep reading I'm not so sure anymore and get so undecided

Not bad for now. Some ideas are clearly taken from A Court of Mist and Fury and I'm not crazy about that, but apart from this I'm entertained.

I have recently done a bit of a rewatch of the best of Captain Hook from Once Upon A Time so this seems appropriate. Please be good.

“We captured her and hated her and would’ve taken turns with a shovel in the graveyard. Don’t forget that you brought her here, locked her in this house, and have made life hell for her ever since.”

Exactly! He was too awful to her and there was too little development in their relationship for me to ship them and believe that he loves her

I can enjoy an incredibly slow progression of the story if I get attached to the characters or the romance, but it hasn't been the case here and I’m bored 😭

I haven’t decided if I care about this book or not yet. It’s a me problem tho I think, I wish to find a book that I love to pieces and when it keeps not happening I get discouraged

the romance is really cute, but the family drama with evil rich father is lowering my enjoyment of the book

I feel really excited about this retelling, it sounds really good.
