#trc x good omens

literally every person who has ever read the raven cycle ever in history:

[crushpdf]

book challenge 📚

thank you @hklnvgl for tagging me, i’m so sorry it’s taken me so long to do it!

favourite book from this year: I’ve got to say it’s still Piranesi, Susanna Clarke.

ebooks, audio books or prints? Paperbacks for life 😌 (I truly cannot process information aurally, and the only ebooks I’ve ever read are AFTG because of obvious reasons)

top five of all times: Oh this question is whack.

Piranesi, Susanna Clarke

Crush, Richard Siken

Giovanni’s Room, James Baldwin

Good Omens, Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett

Wuthering Heights, Emily Bronte

(This question is super hard. There are different books I like in different contexts.)

faves for:

Sci-fi: Brave New World, Aldous Huxley. Frankenstein, Mary Shelley

Contemporary/Romance: The Vanishing Half, Brit Bennett. It’s Kind of a Funny Story, Ned Vizzini (both of these are contemporary, not romance)

Historical fiction: The Book Thief, Markus Zusak. Atonement, Ian McEwan

Fantasy: The Shining, Stephen King. Coraline, Neil Gaiman (obviously I also love TRC/TDT and S&B but seeing as those are series...)

Queer: (I have read many many books with queer characters, to the point where I don’t consider it a genre in of itself. Many of the books I’ve already mentioned have wonderfully complex queer characters. But to name a few off the top of my head...) The Picture of Dorian Gray, Oscar Wilde. Autobiography of Red, Anne Carson. Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe, Benjamin Alire Sáenz

top 3 [canon] book couples:

Andreil, All for the Game (they’re not even canon for me yet 😭)

Malina, Grishaverse

Pynch, The Raven Cycle

top 3 book characters: Are you fucking kidding me omg. 

Piranesi, Piranesi

Andrew Minyard, All for the Game

Quentin Compson (the boy one), The Sound and the Fury

book(s) with potential that didn’t quite pull it off: The Book of X by Sarah Rose Etter has been my most disappointing book this year. The Lover’s Dictionary by David Levithan was also underwhelming. Both were incredible stylistically, but their content fell short.

book(s) that got you through something: I’ve never sought books to help me through tough times, but I will say Aristotle and Dante and AFTG are books that I found at the right time in my life.

book(s) you’d recommend: Lmao literally anything on this list! Some others that didn’t make this list:

A Clockwork Orange, Anthony Burgess

I’m Thinking of Ending Things, Ian Reid

Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, Jonathan Safran Foer

(I read a ton of plays! And I love them! I’d recommend people to read more plays!)

a genre you want a book recommended from: I love anything Fucked Up Relationships (see on this list: Wuthering Heights and The Sound and the Fury and The Dreamer Trilogy etc etc). I also have read very little horror, so would be interested in exploring that genre more!

Whew, that was a lot of books! Tagging (optional obvi): @callumnova @sleepy-skittles @elaphaiaa @jordeclan @dilflanlynch

name: seashell  gender: female star sign: capricorn height: 5′4″ age: 28 wallpaper on my phone: front is a photo of my roommate luna’s dog, inside is artwork of molly and yasha  house: hufflepuff ever  crush  on  a  teacher: i don’t? think so? i more like had mentorship crushes when i was a kid.  coolest  halloween  costume: oh man. siriu/s blac/k was a cool one. so was aziraphale. and peter burke.  favorite  90’s  tv  show: x-files last  kiss: nah i dont do that (spin the bottle in like 9th grade)  have  you  ever  been  stood  up: no im not really interested in dating  favorite  pair  of  shoes: the ones that gave me a stress fracture at c2e2 while i was dressed up as yasha. no i’m kidding. i’ve never been a big shoe person.  have  you  ever  been  to  vegas: no favorite  fruit: OH MAN OH MAN. it changes constantly. but probably red dragonfruit right now. apples with honeycomb are a close second.  favorite  book: good omens, inkheart, trc, poppy wars  stupidest  thing  you’ve  ever  done: god there are just so many but at c2e2 i spelt my own name wrong to marisha’s line minder, we all started laughing hysterically, i’m standing there dressed up as yasha w my bff dressed up as molly desperately trying to spell my name right FOR me, and mar/isha just goes ‘what’s going on here’. but the stupidest thing i’ve ever done is probably lean against a split rail fence with aforementioned friend, a motion which caused the top rail to dislodge and send the two of us tumbling head over heels backwards down a hill during which i sprained my wrist. in seventh grade a teacher asked us to give a fact about ourselves and i said ‘i horseback ride’ and the teacher said ‘how long have you ridden for’ and i said ‘a half hour’. last  movie  you  saw  in  theaters: i think it was little women?

Y: what are your secondhand fandoms? (aka fandoms you aren't in personally but are tangentially familiar with because your friends/people on your dash are in them)

Good Omens- i see a lot of this on my dash. and i support crowley and aziraphale (ineffable husbands as i understand it) with my whole heart.

Star Wars- so much reylo on my dash that i've started reading fics and will probably see the new film in cinemas because i'm invested in their relationship.

Throne of Glass- obviously being part of the ACOTAR fandom, i see a lot of ToG on my dash. admittedly, i just started Heir of Fire, but still wouldn't consider myself part of the fandom since i'm not Obsessed enough yet. can't wait to hop on this Rowaelin ship tho, sounds neat.

The Raven Cycle- this has been on my dash so much lately and tbh TRC has been on my tbr for literally EVER and i'm so mad i can't read books faster so i can get to this series finally.

The Lunar Chronicles- god i want to read this series. i have a signed copy of the first book ffs. the fan art is incredible, i get fomo every time i see it on my dash.
