kitay was pure. he was the best person she had ever known. kitay shouldn’t know how it felt to call a god of vengeance. kitay was the last thing in the world that was still fundamentally kind and good, and she’d die before she corrupted that.

for @henwilsons, the other half of my soul.

i had a gut feeling that yin vaisra would turn out to be evil. but I thought he’d get a sexy evil reveal. not a ‘handing over his country to be colonized by the hesperians just to hold a shred of power even tho it’s not even any real power bc he’s become just a puppet for them’ evil reveal. fuck you old man you’ve disappointed me

#listen I’m okay with him being a power hungry manipulative liar #LOVE that #but rolling over for the hesperians????? LAME #yin vaisra #tpw #the poppy war #I’m so mad at the Yins rn #havent read tbg yet so I guess I’ll wait and see what happens there but as of rn……#lit

how’s life feeling like recently? what book are you reading as of now?

oops 14th april this is a little late sorry :(

life has been ehh okay. school started again so responsibility and work and pressure agh not fun but it's not too bad... yet.

i'm currently trying to read more fantasy :) idk why i just kinda felt like it after reading tpw and realising that it's been a while since i read fantasy

i'm currently reading caraval (i think i told u this ?). i'm 2/3 done with the trilogy.

then i'm planning to read king of scars and rule of wolves by leigh bardugo (i love bardugo sm) (ive been putting this off for soo long bc i keep forgetting to buy king of scars. i bought rule of wolves TWO years ago bc it was on sale for cheap but never got around to purchasing king of scars- which is the first book)

then i'm gonna watch and read game of thrones (dont judge me for not having read it yet. sigh.)

i also really wanna read realm breaker so im on the lookout for that :)

oh also i'm gonna start reading twelfth night for lit class. might use that as an excuse to finally read shakespeare (ive been wanting to read hamlet for so long but i admit im a little intimidated by his style of writing)

oh and also also i plan to read all of jane austen's work since i have the complete collection

ahsvsj i just realised thats alot of books i plan to read. oh well

hbu? what books are you reading right now/hoping to read? and hows your life? 🐈‍⬛☃️

#moots ✮#i love talking abt books ew im such a nerd #vix's library

emma's first 100 celebration: sring venka or reyna ramirez-arellano for @hennaswars

“I don't need your pity. I need you to kill them for me. You have to kill them for me,” Venka hissed. “Swear it. Swear on your blood that you will burn them.”

✧ @booksociety’s Back to School Event: The Poppy War by R.F. Kuang.

was she now a g o d e s s or a m o n s t e r ? perhaps neither. perhaps both.

@fantasysociety game 04 | colours | su daji

but beauty without youth was dangerous. the empress’s beauty did not require the soft fullness of young lips, the rosy red of young cheeks, the tenderness of young skin. this beauty cut deep, like a sharpened crystal. this beauty was immortal.

@lgbtqcreators creator challenge: literature, media from asia, gradient, magenta

he loves her. of this he’s certain. he loves her laugh; that sharp, sudden sound; the cynical laugh that always comes too quick, like it’s ripped out of her. he loves her quick, confident grin. he loves her resilience, her bravery, even her impulsiveness. she’s everything he’s not: unbound, reckless, free. he’s never known anyone like her. she terrifies him, and he loves her so much it hurts.

you know, as someone who is also eAsian, one thing i really appreciated about R.F. Kuang writing Rin was how indigestible she was. every white person who reads The Poppy War will be forced to come to terms with her character and see how deeply flawed and angry she is, and how truly terrible (morally and logically) some of her actions are

#i love this new wave of fantasy asian american lit coming out as much as the next person #but i do think there's some of it that is curated with a white audience in mind #some marketing aspects as well as the expectation that white people can 'discover' and 'learn' about asian cultures #through these fantasy settings with nice little protagonists #the poppy war #rf kuang #fang runin #tpw #💫 viv #my post

people who call the poppy war YA... is it bc rin is the main character? can they not envision adult fantasy having a woman as the mc?

#most 1 star reviews are either bc they dont like the genre TPW is #or they think its YA because uhh ... women cant write adult fiction ig #or they dont understand that books in the same genre have similar tropes bc apparently we skipped that lesson in lit class #like theres good criticisms of TPW im not acting like its a bullet proof story but goddamn #people are so extra critical its stupid thanks for reading my rant #jaybirds talks
