september wrap up ~

uni has started and all i did this month was reading fanfiction until 2 a.m and work. i feel like i’m starting to be an adult right now, like a grown ass adult and it is really scary. but it is fun at the same time. living by yourself (even if its in a dorm room) doing all the big stuff…i wonder what would i be doing after graduating. i want a big apartment with a sun room. i love sunbathing so much.
my dorm room is so small that i can’t even see a tiny daylight, it’s like a shithole. why would they build such a small dorm? why do they put students in an even more difficult situation than they do? we live in a place like this for about 8 months and how do you expect us to be healthy without seeing the sunlight? anyway, when i’m out of this place i hope i will be still reading hp fanfics by @romestations

i’ve been very inactive lately…

the reason was i was so sick and after i got better i started uni, moved into my senior dorm and the rest is more boring so no need to explain 🫠
fall has come to my city earlier than i expected, i’m happy! but something feels odd. september and october has always made me really depressive. so i’ve been trying to cope with that feeling, and fortunately i found my roots back, my love for draco malfoy has come to the surface after all this time and i feel at home oh My God how i missed reading fanfictions after everyone was asleep!!! something in me stirs when i think about it you can’t even imagine 😭 currently reading potter? by seselina i know i’m so late but in covid i was in my minecraft/dreamsmp era 😔
so from now on, i think, i will be reading fanfics until i got bored, be ready to start boys of tommen, because i’m really scared…either its being really popular right now or traumatize people 😩✊🏻
we will see in the upcoming days, for now, see you later…friends…i would not be the same person after spending time with dracotok this long taken in BOOKSTA by @romestations

heart the lover by lily king | book review | ★★★★★

i haven’t cried this hard over a book since just kids by patti smith. my head is literally splitting from crying.

the second i started reading, i was like, yeah, this book is about to chew me up and spit me out. i knew it. and i was TERRIFIED. like genuinely terrified. but somehow i held it together. i got halfway through it in one day and i could’ve forced myself to finish it that day, but wanted to just let it happen naturally and give myself some space. i continued today after taking a two-day break, and now i feel like i’ve lost a very dear friend. i’ve fallen into this sudden, horrible emptiness and i genuinely don’t know how to get back up. i don’t even know why this affected me this much. maybe my hormones are all over the place or i’m just about to get my period.

this tiny little 200-page book made it so hard for me to breathe during the last fifty pages. i already knew i was going to get this attached to Yash, i felt it within the first ten pages. there was just something different about him. i don’t know. Yash was so different. Sam was so different. i got so completely lost in the story that i swear i was Jordan for a while.

my eyes and my head are literally throbbing from crying so much that i’m struggling to even look at the screen right now. this book affected me so deeply that i couldn’t put a single post-it on any page, couldn’t underline a single sentence, couldn’t even fold a page corner. i just couldn’t do it. i couldn’t bring myself to. it hurts so fucking much.

i need 5 to 6 days to recover from this… have you read heart the lover? how are you feeling? 😭

ariadne by jennifer saint | book review | ★★★☆☆

honestly, it took me like two and a half weeks to finish this 😭
it really hooked me at first, but then everything got so confusing. i literally had to google some things while reading just to understand the connections like “wait who was this again?”, “what just happened?”, “WHY did this happen?” because nothing was ever properly explained. it felt like i was reading someone’s stream of consciousness half the time, so i couldn’t really enjoy it as much as i wanted to… genuinely saying, this could’ve been written in a much more explanatory and story-driven way, especially because it’s supposed to be a retelling. there was barely any poetry or emotional depth either. like how are you a greek mythology retelling and you’re not giving me the drama, the poetry, the devastation??? i was genuinely disappointed. maybe it’s because this is the debut of jennifer’s. it doesn’t have to be perfect! i did love it though, sometimes, the storytelling/writing. some quotes vere impeccable 🫠
anyway, at least it contributed something to my general knowledge haha, so i guess i didn’t suffer for absolutely nothing. thank you, jennifer saint for this unforgettable journey!!

i also bought elektra, but after this experience i genuinely have no idea when or how i’m going to find the strength to read another heartbreaking story. i’m disappearing for a while. 🫡

let me know your thoughts about ariadne in the comments, team theseus or team dionysus?? lol ariadne taken in Naxos, Greece by @romestations

until season 2 here’s some books that has the similar vibe of sterling point that you could read! i’m already in pain, my heart is empty and i don’t know what to do, the show felt so real 🫠

have you watched sterling point? thoughts on it?? PLS i need to talk about it 😭😭

“I’ve been waiting for you to come home for eleven years. I’ll go anywhere you go.”

‘’Every summer after, I longed for the warmth of the sun on my skin and the familiarity of her laughter in the air.‘’

‘’He didn’t give me flowers or candy. He gave me the moon and the stars. Infinity.”

‘’He was contemplation and enthusiasm. Ambition and strong coffee. I could have looked at him forever.‘’

‘’He tastes like coffee and maple syrup and coming home after a long day.”

‘’Let’s pretend that time doesn’t exist. Let’s pretend that this week isn’t ending. Let’s pretend that we will always be us—happy, sunburnt, and tangled up together.’’

‘’You’re the cake that looks normal until people dig in and find out its spectacular. You’re the chocolate fucking cake, Sam and you won’t even choose it.’’

‘’Whatever you are, it’s better than a night-light. And for what it’s worth, as a former fairy princess and the ultimate secret soft-girl, I think you’re plenty gentle.” sterling point, books, book recommendations taken in Muskoka, Ontario by @romestations
