what people think alice oseman books are like: blushing awkward first meetings, little chaste first kisses, giggling teenage boys holding hands what alice oseman books are actually like: hey what if your entire personality is actually a carefully constructed facade to make other people like you and to disguise the fact that you don't actually know who you are. if you stripped away all the walls, all the artificial things that you think make you up, what would be left? what would happen if you stopped living for other people and started living for yourself? is there even a person in there or just a gaping void with nothing left in it? wouldn't that be fucked up? do you even know yourself? do you even have a real personality anymore?

Frances separating herself into "school Frances" and "real Frances" is so fucking relatable

To all the people who might read this, I hope you will find beautiful friendships and sweet love stories with people who truly deserve you, I hope it will be just like the kind of relationships that Alice Oseman always tends to write about in all of her books, I hope that every Tori out there finds her Michael, every Charlie finds his Nick , every Tara finds her Darcy, every Tao finds his Elle, every Frances finds her Aled and I hope all Ben hopeS on earth would disappear.
Take care <3

Just a friendly reminder that Frances Janvier was the 'Dr Who girl' in Becky's birthday party in Solitaire
Michael Holden is the 'Winter Olmpyian' who gives a talk at the academy in Radio Silence
Tori Spring is the girl Frances talks to when Aled performs the first live version of Universe City at the end of Radio Silence

People, who have RADIO SILENCE as their favourite book, have exactly 5 moods:
Wishing the Universe City Podcast was real.
Craving academic validation while, at the same time, procrastinating completely.
Listening to the few snippets we have from Universe City on repeat.
Wishing the Universe City Podcast was real, again.
Beeing sad about never getting to have what Aled and Frances have.

It's crazy how Alice creates the most diverse but also relatable characters. There are characters of different sexual orientations, different races, genders, mental illnesses, family life and eating disorders. They're all so different??? but there's something that binds them all together. For example, I relate to Tao but I also relate to Georgia and I relate to Tori but I relate to Frances but I relate to Lister but I... They're all different, but there's something so familiar about them and you can see similar traits in each of them in yourself. I feel like a collage or mosaic of my favourite characters. Not just the four of them, but all the characters, like Aled Last, Micheal Holden and Elle Argent. Alice Oseman's characters radiate comfort and warmth.
Her books give the same vibes as curling up in you're cozy messy bed after an exhausting day at school or work, buried under a mountain of blankets when it rains or snows outside. The months between September and February when the sun sets early and you get to wear extra layers of clothes or that oversized black hoodie. Returning to your room filled with artifacts from your childhood, old books you haven't touched in like four years, book reports and DIY science projects from 3rd grade and movie poster filled haven where you could leave the stresses of the real world behind.
All the lights are off, except for those fairy string lights above your bed. You're sipping a hot cup of tea or hot chocolate, rereading your old favourite books you loved as a teen and watching that old favourite film that you've seen so many times that you can remember the plot and all the dialogue to, but you watch it anyway. Listening to that carefilly curated 90s indie rock playlist from 2019 to drown out and forget the world outside. Staying up late, the only light being the screen of your laptop or phone, reading fan fiction on AO3 while you're whole family's asleep. That warmth and authenticity that you don't find much in modern media. The nostalgia. How she accurately portrays what actual teenagers are like, both the pros and cons. Even if you're reading it for the first time, @chronicintrovert books have the feeling of returning home.
