Count of Monte Cristo #1

I started reading the Count of Monte Cristo last Tuesday and I'm already 200+ pages in. IT'S SO GOOD WHY DID I NOT READ IT EARLIER!???? I was intimidated by the fact that it's 1,200+ pages long but I am now dreading the day that I would be done reading it. I'm obsessed with this book.

I kept thinking about that one sentence telling us that Edmond was secretly happy about the abbe's failure because it meant he could talk to someone now after years of loneliness. I imagine he'd have a smug expression :P spoilers? Perhaps. I'll tag.

i think it's nice that people write books and it's possible to read them. often through the public library system

what's a book you read as a teenager that was so magical and personally profound to you it literally changed your life, doesnt matter if the book was actually well written or not. mine's probably the catcher in the rye

I keep waking up at 4 am because some part of my body hurts (headache today, hand pain yesterday) and I'm sick and tired of it!!!

earlier my friend said to me “somewhere out there, in an alternate universe, there’s an all female rock band called ‘king’” and I’m STILL recovering from that mental image and how gay it made me feel

Suddenly remembered that one time I was coming home from the Ren Faire dressed as OOT Zelda, and we stopped off to eat at iHop, and there was a dad with two little girls there. And mentally i was like 'hohoho perhaps the girls will be excited to see A Princess, as I would have at that age' but what happened instead was the dad saw me and his eyes went REALLY wide and he gasped and said "PRINCESS ZELDA??????"

too many posts about pentiment’s sensitive storytelling through visual art and commentary on the fallacy of truth and examination of how history builds upon itself, love begets love, despair begets despair. not enough posts about the pigs looking like this.
