Books I read in 2018 ➝ The cruel prince by Holly Black
Here is why I don’t like these stories: They highlight that I am vunerable. No matter how careful I am, eventually I’ll make another misstep. I am weak. I am fragile. I am mortal.
I hate that most of all.
it’s the only way i know how to live in this battered body. i empty my mind of the things that plague me and burden my soul, and i take all that i can from what little pleasantness comes my way.
