are you ever reading a good book and watching a good show and creating fun things and suddenly you think to yourself oh wait, life is worth living
We’re moving later this summer, so here comes the most dreaded moment of any book lover’s life…time to pack up all these books! 😩
when you join the fandom early so you actually have to WAIT for the author to write the books like excuse me future members of the fandom you don't know how lucky you are to have the books RIGHT at your fingertips WITHOUT having to spend your days wondering and waiting and dreaming about a book you haven't even READ 😭
Derek Landy: “Don't get attached.”
Me: “Haha. Okay.”
Gets attatched.
Gets obliterated emotionally by 90% of the chapters.

as a woman in her 30s, i still enjoy reading ya books, loads of them have great stories. but one thing i can’t wrap my head around is why so many FMCs feel copy-pasted. stubborn, impulsive, blurts out whatever’s on her mind, throws herself headfirst into danger without thinking twice, somehow always good with a sword/bow/knife despite zero training, you know the drill.
sure, it moves the plot forward because they make reckless choices… but it also gives major “i’m not like other girls” energy. and honestly, it makes them hard to tell apart. beyond this very gryffindor-coded personality, they don’t have much else going on (sometimes they have a hobby, but it’s usually irrelevant to the story).
even really good ya books fall into this. i’ve recently read A Sorcery of Thorns, Six Crimson Cranes, A Crane Among the Wolves, and i’m currently reading The Girl Who Fell Beneath the Sea. they’re all enjoyable, but their protagonists? kinda interchangeable.
i’d love to read about a ya fmc who’s shy, afraid, and anxious. who likes feminine-coded things. who doesn’t know how to be brave but learns how to anyway.
Let J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit be a warning for people who want to force introverts to go outside more.
I mean, look how that turned out for poor Bilbo Baggins: Friends dead, ring addiction, and your house gets ransacked and sold off.
Their first photo together (on Courtney's IG account) and their latest one. It's giving "from friends to lovers" trope. 🥺💚💙
