I rarely want to see books made into movies cause I mean most of them are better off as just books but oh my god, I NEED to live long enough to see the “Better Than The Movies” and “Nothing Like The Movies” movies. Like that is some REAL romance stuff right there!! Like, those books felt like watching a Julia Roberts’ iconic romantic comedy for the first time, you know? Like it’s amazing and it would do incredible as a movie, it would become such a classic because it’s THAT good!!

Please please please god make it happen someday!!!

Like just read this line (Excerpt of the book “Nothing Like The Movies”): “Being with you has changed the threads of my existence, I swear to God, so now being without you makes everything quieter, dimmer, and duller. So. Much. Smaller And I fucking hate it."

Way better than an angry, soaked in rain love confession cause it’s just THAT good. 😩

I was just wandering through the internet per usual and found this. It made me really sad.

Saying no can feel uncomfortable, but by doing so, we can protect our sanity and boundaries. Saying no is a healthy practice! 👏

Hello! I’ve recently been a lot into the book series “Boys of Tommen” by Chloe Walsh. Right now I’m coursing through the latest book (Releasing 10) and I just feel like I wanted to share my personal experience and how I relate to the main character. ⚠️ This book touches sensitive topics such as sexual and physical abuse, child abuse (sexual and physical), topics of self harm, suicide and struggling with mental illness. If you are triggered by these topics I suggest you don’t read the book and skip to the last three paragraphs of this post.⚠️

My experience:

This book has really touched me because I identify with some aspects. I’m a female who also experienced sexual abuse when I was a child. It only happened once, and there was no penetration, but it left a mark on me. I was 8 years old, and it was my cousin (male), who at that time was almost 10.

I remember feeling very confused because I knew what was happening was not right. I grew up in a very Catholic environment, and I was afraid that if I told someone, they would judge me or feel ashamed of me. I thought they might see it as something unimportant because we were kids, but for me, it was very impactful.

Years passed before I could talk about it. For a long time, I thought it was my fault, that I had done something wrong, that I was dirty. But when I was 13, living only with my dad and brother, certain circumstances helped me tell them what had happened. I remember my dad’s reaction: he was very angry, but with a powerless anger. And my brother looked very hurt.

We tried to file a report, but because of the age difference, the time that had passed, and the lack of physical evidence, it was complicated. Sometimes I still think about that.

I have been to therapy, and I have already talked about it.

Recently, I had my first boyfriend, and I worried that I wouldn’t be able to have a healthy intimate relationship, but thank God it wasn’t like that. Although I still have some scars. For example, I can’t stand it when someone lies down behind me, because that’s how the abuse happened. My body reacts automatically, I get a sort of alert, and I need to move away.

Fortunately, nothing like that has happened to me again. But definitely, an experience like that leaves a mark. And reading the book has made me think a lot about how everything would have been if the abuse had lasted longer, or if it had been from a manipulative adult like what happens to the protagonist…

I just wanted to share this, which is an extremely sensitive and important part of my life because I wish someone would have told me this when I was going through it. You are not alone. Reach out. Talk to someone. Talk about it. Be loud. Don’t fear public judgement. I know it’s easy to say since I myself kept quiet until it was too late to file a report, but I want you to know that whatever you are afraid of happening if you speak up. It’s worth it. Trust me, I wish I had spoken sooner. There is nothing anyone could say that could make speaking about it regrettable. Because once you get the support, and once they get what they deserve. That peace? Nothing will give you peace like that.

If you or someone you know is going through something like this, please reach out to someone you trust. There are also plenty of lifelines and phone numbers on the internet you can call. But please try to trust first someone close to you, because they are who can give you the most support on these experiences.

I’m also open to talk if you ever feel like you need to let something out. You’re not alone ❤️
