Third Places
Third places or "good great places" are social surroundings and gathering spots for relaxation or recreation that are separate from your home (first place) and work (second place). Think cafés, bookshops, parks, community centers. Recommendations welcome! 🥰

“She let out a strained little laugh. “What isn’t wrong right now?””
This shows how characters grab onto a bit of light even in total mess. So real and a touch heartbreaking, but with that tone that makes us smile too. 🥺

Are there rumours to a sequel? Im not sure yet and don’t have the opportunity to look it up right now. I did love the ending, but I need more because I loved it sooo much.

This quest really is one of my favourites, there's already so many books on it that have been sitting on my TBR until now, but I hope to get to them soon! 🤗
Since this is such a big genre, it makes sense that not every single book that fits can be added to the quest, but I would still like to provide some suggestions (if only for other enjoyers of the genre) 😇

I finally understand more of this book than in the beginning, I just feel I'm part of a minority that isn't 100% in love with this...
Post from the Hollywood Vampires: Johnny Depp, Amber Heard, and the Celebrity Exploitation Machine forum
Reading about Johnny and Amber's wedding ceremony and how checked out and minimally involved Depp seemed to be (he didn't invite any of his friends except one, apparenty most of the guests were from Amber's side; one of his two personal assistant's didn't even know the island ceremony was happening; his daughter and mother weren't even present at the second ceremony on the island (!!!); everything was just rushed for no real reason; right before the first civil service ceremony he admitted to his head of security that he doesn't really want to do this) is just so baffling, why was even still with her then??? Midlife crises and men thinking with their dicks and all that, sure, but still.... really? Was it just because she was young and hot? I know love and feelings aren't logical and rational, but still, you'd think someone of his Depp's star power could have found someone else young and hot (if that's really all it was ever about) that made him less miserable?
I started reading this becausde I didn't really keep up with all the details of the trial while it was happening, so I thought this book would make for a nice refresher of the whole saga. So far so good, although the authors' sympathies are pretty heavily skwewed in Johnny's favour. I wonder if Amber will get the same treatment in a latter chapter?
It's really such a pity that more people haven't read this yet because I keep wanting to see all the different reactions and status updates 🥲😭😭

Hii everyone. Ive got a little idea. How about we write our favorite series / movies to watch and others will recommend us a book based on our choice? Im really looking foward to reading some of those recommendations!!

i just finished a full day of work, dissociated through my online class for my master's program and decided to get at least a few pages of reading in before i inevitably pass out, just to be actually shocked awake at the way this author writes LOL. the prose is so beautifully written, the imagery is so well-done without any overused phrases/comparisons and i literally can't remember the last time i felt this way about a book? i haven't stayed up all night reading in nearly a decade, but i might just pull an allnighter tonight omg
if anyone has recs that have made them feel this way, please send them my way, i appreciate all of you!!
