    maybe i'm being insensitive since i have no idea what it would be like to grieve something like this but is it not absolutely unhinged to track down the doctor's children on the internet and send a bunch of letters asking about their dad that killed your mom 😭😭😭

  • Library book panic

    I love going to the library! Seeing all the options and finding things I might not give a chance otherwise is one of the small joys for me. I'll have that excitement for a couple days after I get them and then it's just... I'm not sure what the right word is for the feeling. Dread? Pressure? I don't know, but knowing I have to read them and take them back, more often than not, leaves them unread. It has me telling myself that even if I didn't read them I at least helped by checking them out.

    Does anyone else struggle with the library book pressure/dread/panic? How do you overcome it?

  • once upon a time book recs

    hi guys! i’m currently re-watching once upon a time, and i was wondering if there’s any books that are like it? the whole disney-tales re-told kinda thing? or any books like once upon a broken heart because i think that has a similar vibe to what i want🤞 i like the magical side of things, so any YA magic books like ouat/ouabh would be appreciated 🩷🩷 edit: young adult isn’t necessary, but if it is adult i’d rather it have no spice/low spice!

  • lets be real about fae and other fantastical beings...

    They would not be monogamous and heteronormative - that's boring if you're gonna live indefinitely. Got any recs on non monogamous romantasies???

    A really quick enjoyable read, I love the facial expressions of the illustrations and the whole mood from the lighting, a perfect read for getting into the spooky season. I really enjoyed the authors note at the end
