My mom and I have a thing I call woke college daughter where she'll say something like "men inherently require less work and drama in friendships" and I go "not to be your woke college daughter but perhaps rather than phrasing this in terms of biological essentialism we look at it from the point of view of men being socialized to avoid discussing their emotions which is not necessarily a good thing for either men or women" and by prefacing it with woke college daughter I am acknowledging that even if I'm right I know I'm being annoying about it. And it works.

it's such a drastic shift in htn when Gideon comes back, bc up until that point absolutely no one has given a single shit about Harrow while she's been going through hell. And suddenly there's Gideon, who so badly wants to take care of Harrow, apologizes about everything and wants justice for her. It feels like waking up from a nightmare

Upon my second listen of the books I really feel this like damn she was so alone that whole time

Just finished The Locked Tomb trilogy and holy shit I was not expecting any of that. I immediately restarted Gideon because now I am hoping I get more out of it but fuck I wish I knew someone who had read it because what the fuck happened in Nona?? I have theories and idea but so many questions??? Anyways now we have to wait for Alecto so I guess I will just keep rereading lol

Im here. Hit me. Im not an expert, but i would love to talk about it. I read gideon twice and the other two once. Also listening to the frontline fifth podcast which helped out a lot.

I’m definitely going to look into the pod cast but I think right now my biggest questions are about how we get from “The Resurrection” to where we start in GtN, like how did John start over and how did he become god? Idk if that’s a dumb question but I fear I need it spelled out for me. Alecto is the spirit of earth forced into a humanish body, but the act of creating her is what made him god? And then the question of the lyctors, did they all know him in the beginning? I was trying to piece together his story times in the river in NtN but I think I confused myself 😅

"if tumblr dies you can find me on bluesky" "if tumblr dies you can find me on Instagram" if tumblr dies you cannot find me. It's over. I'm free.

he’s an unreliable narrator TO YOU. i believe him

The love of my life (Ao3) has returned to war (the site is down again) I am heartbroken to lose her (I am hardly coping) I pray she is safe (I don’t even like Jesus) I will keep vigil by my window until she returns from battle. (I know the volunteers are doing their best.) Until we meet again, my darling. (I have an addiction.)

I need to go dancing again or else I might die.
