when stella alonso said “I’d gotten used to being single, and I doubted the reality of love could live up to my fantasies of it, so I didn’t even try.” i felt it in my bones soul

Don't worry, girl, you're already smart and way more successful than you think. You're one giant man (who is almost as smart as you) away from an Ali Hazelwood romance.

Problematic Summer Romance by Ali Hazelwood

“It’s the way you take over the space around you. You remind me constantly, loudly, indecently, of all the little things that make you you. It’s impossible to escape, and it makes me very angry.”

I eat it up everytime!

Ali Hazelwood's books bring back that comforting feeling of reading a new chapter of a fanfic that was updated.

Yes, I do not care that it is unrealistic. Somehow every main character is a genius. Somehow every love interest is a huge guy, and I love to see it.

I think too deeply about everything. I still don’t know if that allows me to see more of the world, or less of it.

[text ID: To be loved means to be consumed. To love means to radiate with inexhaustible light. To be loved is to pass away, to love is to endure.]

“I’ve always liked quiet people: You never know if they’re dancing in a daydream or if they’re carrying the weight of the world.”

Dropping a very special Sketch-a-wish, voted on by my lovely Patreon members for August! The winning request was to illustrate an off-page scene from The Folk of the Air series, when Cardan was writing his letters to Jude. I countered that Cardan went through the five stages of grief writing those letters, and each deserved it's own illustration. (Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, Acceptance) You'll also notice some familiar outfits throughout! Have a great weekend. :)
