"What I'm realizing," I continue, "is that I like myself the most when I'm around you. And I think it's because I'm the most honest version of myself. I don't have to try as hard, and I don't have to hide. I can just... be."
Weather Girl, Rachel Lynn Solomon, p. 254

You're All Just Jealous Of My Jetpack by Tom Gauld
This was a reread for me, I got this as a present a lifetime ago, and I did not rememebr anything about this collection of comics stips. I will not lie I didn't love this book. Some stips we were funny, and I personally really like Gauld's illustration style, but some strips didn't work at all for me. I will give it the doubt benefit because I have a translated edition so maybe some jokes were lost in translation? The thing is that some stirps felt a bit awkward and had boomer meme vibes. Which is weird because I didn't expect it at all. I tend to like Gauld's stips, and I read another book by him a few years ago and I don't really remember feeling that way. I will now reread this other book I was mentioning to see how I feel about it now. I definitely have mixed feelings about his book, I honestly have not checked reviews online yet to see what other people had to say, but I am now intrigued by it.

It’s never enough, is it? Time. We always think we have so much of it, but when it really counts, we don’t have enough at all.

I love the bishop but leaving two ladies without locks on their doors in 18th century France is a bit of madness, don't you think?

Idk if anyone has noticed but I have rediscovered my love for published fantasy novels (at the MOST inconvenient time- lemme tell you the things I have neglected so that I can read a book… not good)
So I’m just going to apologize ahead of time for all the bookbl/booktok posts I’m about to make/reblob.
And yes the impetus for this resurgence was absolutely because A Court of Fey and Flowers made me go “okay this is like the THIRD ACOTAR reference I’m seeing in as many weeks, I have to see what this book is about”

coexist
three of me coexist
one lives, electric, magic, incredible
but it doesn't have much fuel
then it remains stored
another, which dies slowly
slipping through the empty spaces left in your path
waiting for something to happen
is the result of anger
who knows
and this one who writes
indifferent
that expects nothing and is oblivious to everything
is present most of the time
don't expect anything
don’t need that
the three live together
sit down and drink wine
make fun of their ex lovers
and fall in love with the new
expect something to happen
one, smiling and screaming
spills
another, seated, trembles
spills
the last, write these poems
spills

She carried herself like she was one body, a whole, not a collection of disjointed limbs, and for this reason I believed her to be very intelligent and I was in awe of her and a little bit in love with her.
