it's been maybe a year since i've read vicious by v.e. schwab and i think about it arguably too much

Have you read any books lately that you've loved?

I have a problem where I keep buying books much faster than I can finish them. I just tell myself I'm performing a valuable service and supporting the authors lol

Hahaha, I mean!! By buying a lot of books, you certainly are ;-)

In terms of books I've loved recently, I just finished Alice Pung's One Hundred Days last night, which was wonderful. The blurb calls it a fractured-fairytale, and it is, but it's also in a lot of ways a bit of a gothic lit story of a teenage girl who finds herself pregnant and locked in an apartment with her mother. Pung's probably one of my favourite Australian authors at the moment. Her memoir Her Father's Daughter and YA novel Laurinda are both great reads too, and she's just got a really wonderful voice as a novelist. Her work tends to explore a lot about immigrant families in Australia, the cultural divide between East Asia and South East Asia and Australia, and the nature of being a third-culture kid (she herself is Australian, but of Chinese-Cambodian descent).

I'm currently also about halfway through Patrick Radden Keefe's Say Nothing, which is heavy, but excellent in ways that I can't articulate yet, and I've also (unusually for me actually!) been reading a lot of poetry lately? I'm a few poems off finishing Desiree Dallagiacomo's Sink, which I think is pretty good, and recently re-read two Australian collections - Krissy Kneen's Eating My Grandmother and Omar Sakr's The Lost Arabs, which are both collections I really love and think about a lot.

(I've also read a lot of Not Great Stuff recently, hahaha, but I'll spare you those!)

from a post-Zigoola ObiBail + BailBreha fic that has no plot as of yet

“I talked to Master Kenobi today,” Breha said as greeting the next time they talked. Bail raised an eyebrow and waited for her to continue. “I wanted to thank him, but he says that it's you who saved his life on that mission you can’t say anything about. He seemed quite impressed.” He sighed. “I told you, he was the one to… We helped each other survive, that’s all.” “That’s a lot,” she smiled softly at him, “I’m sure you were very heroic and dashing.” “I was mostly scared and exhausted. And sweaty.”

no one will give me the toxic co-obsessive mutually manipulative serial killer romance/thriller novel I so desperately crave so I guess I'll just have to write it myself.

[zeitghost]

i need you to kill yourself

Wait the book of bill appearing to Ford first is fucking HILARIOUS actually. Ford literally killed Bill less than a month ago, and Bill's still banking so hard on him getting him out of therapy that the book shows up in Ford's stuff MULTIPLE TIMES. Girl the situationship has been over for thirty years give it up 💀
