started reading, ended up drawing

to whom it may concern,

if you're someone who used to read a lot as a child and now you're an adult who hasn't read a book in five years and you miss that part of yourself, i'm here to reassure you that that part of yourself isn't gone for good. It's a habit you can nurture. All it needs is a little bit of practice, and a little bit of pushing through to the part where you start enjoying yourself again

Sincerely,

An adult who's learning to love reading again

Ladies and gentlethem, our heroine! ‘You waited long enough to show me kindness.’ Meet Lady Lia Felice, the Pearl of the World, the most beautiful woman at court, the sweetest and most persecuted maiden in the city, the heroine of the book Time of Iron. (She doesn’t look sad.) She’s in a love triangle, as is traditional, with the king and his most loyal and brave white knight (Or is she?). (She doesn’t look sad, why would you say that?) Her wicked stepsister is finally going to be punished for her misdeeds and Lia shall go triumphantly to the ball! Unless something were to go wrong. Unless the novel in which our pure damsel stars is villainously hijacked. Thank you so much to @vkelleyart for rendering Lia in all her pearlescent pre-Raphaelite glory. I hope you guys like The Heroine… though I know some among us are more villainously inclined…

If you want to have a ball with this beauty, there’s a preorder link to the fabulous Parnassus Books, one of the amazing US indies taking part in my preorder (with evil incentives) campaign.

you are presented with 2 copies of the same book

the first copy is in tip top condition. a little yellowed, hinting at age, but other than that, there is barely even a crease in the spine. there are no marks, and the owner says that they always keep their books in a book bag when carrying them around.

the second book is battered. absolutely wrecked. it is yellowed, the spine has multiple creases, and there are scriblings in pencil all over every single page, the thoughts of the owner entwined magically with the book forever. there are a few highlighted bits and bookmarked pages.

reblog if the second one is the one that you consider to be a well-loved book :) i just want to see smtg

Soren and Vanya from The Prince's Poisoned Vow by Hailey Turner.

The final book comes out next month and I'm pretty hyped about it.

Is life supposed to be this hard?

Because I look around and everyone else looks happy. So why am I not happy.
