Virginia Ronan ♥ Herondale ♥’s Reviews > The Spirit Bares Its Teeth > Status Update

"This treatment does not look kind, and yes, it is painful, but Headmaster discovered it's what her body and mind require in order to keep her and others safe."

WTF??!! What the actual hell?!! Et tu, Brute? I can't with the stupid, horrible, disgusting men in this book, they're all rotten to the core. ALL of them.

"Veil sickness can manifest itself in the strangest ways, and healing will be difficult as long as you cling to this masculinity. Does that make sense?"
No. Because this is not a sickness. This is me. "Yes, sir."

Can we get rid of that piece of work already? I hate this Headmaster. He's horrible. Silas, don't listen to him. You're a better man than he'll ever be.

"I read everything as it is given to me, exactly how it is said, only to discover that the world always operates just below the surface."

Loving the autism rep once again! Andrew Joseph White writes it so well!

"First the tutors, and then this, the Veil sickness, whatever it is.
They can't keep scraping away layers of me thinking they can find the girl they want underneath."

Ugh! The injustice and how those girls are treated and treat each other is already horrible. I want to break out Silas! He needs to get the hell out of there before it's too late. >_<

"Despite all the evidence to the contrary, I believe wholeheartedly, in my soul, that I am a boy. How arrogant of me, to think I could change something so God-given as my sex.
What is sickness, if not that?"

This book already hurts. T_T I'm worried about Silas and what's going to happen to him at that Sanitorium and Finishing School.
