  • All's Well
    Reading Update from 60% (page 212)

    I was wondering why all of Miranda’s physical therapists are named after gospels (Matt, Mark, Luke, John) - this line finally makes it obvious: “It reminds me of the many conversations I’ve had with them… all the times they told me to trust, have faith. All the times I submitted myself to their hands. All the times they failed.”

    She was supposed to have a religious-like faith in medicine, but what really healed her were these supernatural forces (transferring her pain to Briana and moving forward with Alls Well)

  • Where to start?

    i love the dark academia vibes but i think I actually never read a book in this style. So any recommendations where to start?

    “After all, to the well organized mind, death is but the next great adventure.” Dumbledore ❤️ the rereads are worth it for his wisdom alone

    This Norbert the dragon saga seems like such a random little departure from the rest of the story. I’m hoping he’ll pop back up again later in the series…
