Thin Girl Writes

Waited for the right time and I guess this is it Launching my (mini?) blog series after 3 years though all I ever had were series of scribbled drafts and unwritten ideas buried inside my room and head, only to be unearthed when I found someone who shares the same love and joy for writing.

Thank you to my book club friends, your support always kept me going especially with reading and writing, even in just a span of few months, you kept me sane in the midst of all chaos.

To my bestfriend, (char special mention ang babay) thank you for the title idea or else I never would have tried to write this again, this time tinuod najud imong ambag, even when I owed you too many rejected laags to count.

To the few readers who actually read my entries regardless of what you think, still, thank you for taking time.

And to myself, thank you for hanging on. This might be nothing to others, but the exhilaration and freedom of writing is something I cant compare to anything. And though every waking day is demanding, writing reminds me to be patient with myself. And I know that even if I cant write the next blog entry soon, right now, I finally have something to look forward to.

TW: Self-harm, Drug addiction

This is almost a year long overdue book review, and finally its here!

I remember the first time I laid my eyes on this book, I just knew I had to have it, with a slight idea of what its gonna be about based on the cover. And its beyond expectation. 

I also remember the way it made me feel, the way I had to take my time reading it before I'd go to sleep, how I was taking it slow at first to reading it fast halfway 'coz I couldnt wait the next day to turn pages, how I tried not to empathize too much on Charlie's shoes to avoid breaking down yet I still ended up crying on @misskathleenglasgow 's Author's notes, and how the book perfectly smelled together with how it felt reading it.

This book is definitely worth rereading. Thank you for your words @misskathleenglasgow , I cant wait to read your other books when Im ready for them<3

“Blink and you’re twenty-eight, and everyone else is now a mile down the road, and you’re still trying to find it, and the irony is hardly lost on you that in wanting to live, to learn, to find yourself, you’ve gotten lost.”

― V.E. Schwab, The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue

Now doesn't that just hit it right there?? It's been so long since I've last written a book review and I'm just beyond happy to be able to write again, and another collab on top of that with my friend Nichole😊

This is the first book we've ever read on V. E. Schwab's stories and I guess its safe to say that we love it, and cant wait to read more of her books❤️

  Since I’m the type of reader who wants to feel so much deep emotions while reading, this book did not make that happen, but I was still given a story that I’ll simply love without further explanation. And with that, link above for our book review🥰
