    what a talent to have such a way with words; to tell a story, a history, an argument, and a plea.

    Thoughts from 24% (end of Ch. 4)

    "Nothing is so privileged as thinking history belongs to the past" Excellent so far, I really love John's writing style and how he is weaving the many stories of TB together to form the overall narrative.

    36% ago I had no idea that I will continue

    The first book I am to indulge in any Vampyre or Werewolf story (which I learned that most contemporary readers have the same situation as me, being Ali Hazelwood is the writer). If you're the same, maybe you'll appreciate my words. But to the story itself, I am actually entertained enough to stay up reading. Maybe because i'm in a contemporary romance slump or maybe because I soft DNFed her other books after reading Deep End and The Love Hypothesis, that this is the last book that I'm trying of hers— EITHER way I am getting excited for what will happen (although I already have... guesses) while I rawdog my way into this new fantasy world I got into :D

  • Support Libraries!

    hi! with so many new and old readers, and with such terribly scary serious news all the time regarding banned books, defunding libraries, laws restricting romance books, and just general access to e-readers/audiobooks on mass, etc., please please please get involved in your local library. show support as much as you can: getting a library card, using resources, going to programs, or even joining their library board/friends of the library. the best way to save books and information is by saving libraries.

  • The Priory of the Orange Tree (The Roots of Chaos, #1)
    Hesitant

    This book has been on my tbr shelf for close to two years and I am incredibly intimidated by the thought of starting it - but I want to join the spring readathon! I think it may be time to pull the trigger.
