Ok this is SUCH a fall book but unfortunately I’m loving it too much to table it until the appropriate season

Heather Fawcett kinda owns the annoyance to lovers trope now

I swear I don’t hate this book even though I’m probably making it seem like I do. I like the supernatural/occult elements and the dual timelines a lot

Oh this is so fun

I’m not gonna lie I feel no desire to finish this book but I refuse to dnf when everyone else seems to love it. It must get better… right?

Unfortunately I think I tend to like the idea of a heist book more than I ever like the execution

Niche pet peeve: a bisexual love triangle where the m/f pairing has way more sauce. Why would you force me to root for a man

I’m impressed by how much research clearly went into this

Sorry to be annoying but why is there ONE singular female character, and she’s a succubus… I don’t trust books written by men

Not this book telling me the mc is 30 years old when literally 15 pages before it told me she’s 33…. I’m begging the publishing industry to employ editors again

The beginning of this is kind of jarring, I’m not loving it tbh

I think I’m supposed to like their boss, but he genuinely sucks so bad. Please quit girls

I think I'd prefer it if this book wasn't constantly reminding me that one of the girls is an objectively better artist than the other... rivals to lovers works best when both of them secretly think the other is better.

Elizabeth Stephens has a real talent for writing the most repulsive, horrible, unsexy men I’ve ever suffered through reading about

This is not at all what I was expecting this book to be like

I’m enjoying this but it’s crazy that we’re still pausing for long infodumps at the 50% mark

Ok the beginning was kind of jarring and infodumpy but I’m into it now

Ok this is hurting my feelings

I know it’s just the backdrop for the cozy mystery, but this entire premise is actually batshit insane. So everyone lives for hundreds of years, being reborn over and over again, until their spaceship gets to their new world. And then they’ll just stop? Live one normal lifespan again, and die forever? Why? And why would anyone agree to it?

How does Julia Whelan make her voice so boyfriend

I LOVE how Emily Henry books are always so messyyyy it gets me giggling

This girl is genuinely dumb as a rock and the “banter” feels so forced and awkward

The author has repeatedly said a character “rounded their shoulders” and it’s driving me insane. That’s not the expression. You SQUARE your shoulders. It’s a very common phrase. “Rounding” your shoulders would be…. Slouching? Is everyone slouching?
