AND THEY’RE FUCKING CORRECT
#oh lord#if it wasn’t inappropriate I’d give you a big old kiss on the forehead for this#thank you for putting it so eloquently#i will never get why people spend so much of their time on earth '#'criticising' (but often it‘s actually mocking) other‘s reading tastes when they could just as well uplift the books they like#I’ve seen every kind of book hyped on booktok and someday people need to realise they have to follow and support a diverse range of creators#in order to see beyond whatever barnes and noble is putting on that first table at the entrance#like please diversify your reading and your following list#because at the end of the day the algorithm will uplift white voices above anyone else still#and it’s on you to seek out creators#and therefore their recommendations and their critiques#honestly please just take a bit responsibility for curating your own palette as well#nobody is putting a gun to your head and making you buy an indie romance that was picked up by trad#and the fast fashion comparison falls flat on so many levels#just thank you OP for your thoughts#somehow these Tiktoks and their comment sections always come down to using the opportunity to shit on romance and romance readers in genera#and these takes get traction through shallow engagement-farm-y controversial takes and never actually examine the problem at hand#anyways

Working was out of the question. He had retrieved his spectacles and put them on to read through some reports from his estate managers -- and then he had caught a glimpse of Matilda's face.
Her mouth had fallen open. "You... wear spectacles?" she said faintly.
He glared at her through them. "Yes. To read. Because I am old."
He had, in fact, worn spectacles to read since he had first learned to read, but he did not tell her that.
She had nodded, her lips still parted, the daft woman. And then he'd felt the heat of her fixed stare as he'd tried to work. It was impossible not to feel it. He rubbed the back of his neck, stared blindly at the reports, and then yanked off his spectacles and shoved them brutally into his jacket pocket.
Matilda had let out the tiniest, breathiest sigh.

Finished up and all I have to say is that this was lovely beyond words. I grew so fond of the characters, their dynamic was delightful and real and honestly I can’t find the right words to do this justice 💀 I just genuinely liked it a LOT.
I’m currently reading Alexandra Vasti‘s In Which Matilda Halifax Learns the Value of Restraint and I cannot wait for her full length debut next year oh lord
Our mmc Ashford just got out the reading glasses for some light work and had to ("brutally"!!) pack them away again until further notice because Matilda would not stop staring at him. Just getting absolutely hot and bothered for this old man with his spectacles that she starts making him uncomfortable. Real

I‘m 30% in and they’re biggest problem is that the more time they spend together, the more fond of each other they become

I’ve also started to seriously read more manga this year and two I have not stopped thinking about are The Artist and the Beast by Coda and Smoking Behind the Supermarket With You by Jinushi. Verrrry different dynamics but both so good.

i reread Devil in Winter in audio, narrated by the spectacular Mary Jane Wells, and my fondness for this book grows with every read. The first six chapters are perfection to me.
