Reading the book is not enough. I need to eat it.

Why people don't like 3rd person pov? Genuinely asking because as a non native I prefer 3rd person. And tbh it doesn't matter to me anyways, sometimes I read books till the middle and realise they're 3rd pov (maybe I shouldn't say that💀) but my point is both are easy for me to understand and doesn't matter to me.

making a new yearly bullet journal spread is serious business (I drew 72 mini calendar grids and my hand cramped)

I am almost ready to get another bookshelf but that's money I could spend on books

I want to go back to the years when these books were the most popular

I bought yet another copy of Watership Down and when I got home I noticed this special dedication on the front cover:

“This is a favorite book of mine- it made me laugh, it made me cry… I enjoyed Watership Down thoroughly and hope you will too. Happy Birthday.”

I love finding treasures like this.

Wow, I think the Captive Prince trilogy truly ruined me because now I'm already thinking of rereading and I just finished it 2 days ago. I have never read (or seen) enemies to lovers like this, and wow, WOW. Laurent and Damen enemied so well, and created sexual tension like nothing else ever, that when the lovers part well and truly came, the satisfaction was unparalleled.

✨Thankful Thursday/Favorite Fiction Friday✨

Hi everyone! This week has been kind of crazy, but I haven’t forgotten. June’s a fantastic month for many different reasons: Pride, end of the fiscal year, for some it’s the end of the school year. But, there are many things to be thankful for.

I will start with, a MASSIVE thank you to @autism-purgatory , who made me fanart of Peter Hart that I am still gushing about and showing to my husband. You took time out of your day to draw my characters and make me smile, and I cannot thank you enough for that. I know how much joy it brings to see your characters come to life, and really inspire people. Thank you, G.J.

HUGE thank you to @thatuselesshuman who made me laugh from this meme about my stories, because it is entirely accurate and hilarious. Another one for my collection ✨

Gigantic thanks to @gioiaalbanoart, @wyked-ao3 and @sunglasses-in-the-bentley , who are reading Peter Hart for a second time (anyone else who is, please let me know too!) To read my works the first time is a gigantic honor; to go through the adventure again is one of the highest praises for an author, next to receiving fanart, fanworks, and fanfiction.

Thank you to this kind stranger, who made me beam all day from this comment. And thank you this community, who has shown so much kindness and support that I wonder why I’ve kept my talents hidden so long. Well, NO MORE. You will get art, you will get stories, you will get support, the best way I know how. I will do my best
