I feel this 😩 my suggestion is: go to goodreads, if it's categorized as "romantasy"... RUN.
It's all Twilight, but either with dragons or fairies, plus more s3x.
Did anyone else read Fourth Wing and get incredibly irritated at it being advertised as a fantasy novel but written like a romance one?
I need to know
I’m reading some Victorian trash and have found what might be my all time favourite overly-elaborate novel frame story - So we open on a man who's about to move to a new apartment. His friends throw him a party, and at that party they decide to have a seance even though none of them believe in ghosts. Surprise! Ghosts are real. even though this novel is NOT about ghosts (it's about mad science.) Soon the ghost gets tired of table turning and demands a typewriter, and there’s a bunch of fucking around finding the ghost the right kind of typewriter (the ghost insists it has to be some specific obscure brand, and no, this has no bearing whatsoever on the story.) It takes ages. Finally, the ghost possesses one of the guys in order to use the typewriter and it turns out the thing the ghost writes is the entire rest of the novel.

And we are quotation marks, inverted and upside down, clinging to one another at the end of this life sentence. Trapped by lives we did not choose.
It’s time, I think, to break free.
It’s okay that we didn’t collect souvenirs or that we never had time to pull it all together in a way that made sense to anyone else but us.
The thing I realize is that it’s not what you take, it’s what you leave.
Grief means we loved fiercely…and if that is all anyone ever has to say about either one of us in the end, I think we lived our best life.
Because..
Abuse can feel like love.
And,
Starving people will eat anything.
Imagine: Chapter 1 (Cont.)
Decision made: No
You decide to ignore the paper and walk away.
You finally walk outside in amazement and fear.
Next
Imagine: Chapter 1 (Cont.)
“Farewell my friend.”
The stranger floats up and gets sucked into this vacuum of a yellowish, white light above him only to disappear right before your eyes.
“How many shrooms did I take? I must be tripping.”
“What the fuck was that about?”
You scratch your head in such confusion.
“Okay maybe I had a concussion...annnnd.. I’m in a coma.”
Maybe I’ll just try to wake myself up.
What do you want to do?
Run into the wall beside you.
Slam the spell book multiple times on your forehead hoping you wake up.
Pinch yourself, you must be dreaming.
it absolutely shatters my soul to annotate on books. I don't know how people so easily highlight lines and tab pages, it feels like I'm taking a knife and stabbing the book's soul and also my own heart. But still, there's this feeling of joy that comes with underlining my favourite scenes and dialogues and drawing little hearts and stars around them. And that feeling exceeds the pain.
can't hear you over the sound of my heart shattering.
Nothing better than an amazing library to have your love read to you 😍❤️
