Quoted as the first genre romance, I was excited to read this. It far exceeded my expectations, and kept me engaged from start to finish. I can definitely say this book is not going to be very romance readers cup of tea; it has a boat load of rape. No pun intended. #historicalromance #classicromance 140/100 books.

Romance Readathon Day 2 pick. I‘m a sucker for a rockstar romance. This one has been highly rated by people I respect. #romancereaders #rockstarromance #romancereadathon

Honestly I thought this would be steamier, since it has next to no actual plot, but I liked it anyway. Even if it did have a weird totally misplaced pegging scene. I was thinking 3 stars, but I honestly couldn‘t put it down so I gave it a generous 4 stars.

So, this was a reread for me. A college me favorite. Holds up. A little dated in terms of what YA used to be, but back then, YA was actually written for teenagers. The ending is just so… *chefs kiss* Also, first book of the year.

This is what I‘m reading right now. I promise to start using this again. I PROMISE.

“When an apple ripens and falls— what makes it fall? Is it that it is attracted to the ground, is it that the stem withers, is it that the sun has dried it up, that it has grown heavier, that the wind shakes it, that the boy standing underneath wants to eat it?

No one thing is the cause. All this is only a coincidence of conditions under every organic, elemental event of life is accomplished.”

The fascination Tolstoy has in describing all of his female characters with “beautiful faces and tiny mustaches” is kind of beyond me. Things no one tells you about War and Peace…. #tolstoy #warandpeace #classiclit #canonlit #catsandbooks #cats #catsoflitsy

RaeLovesToRead Awww kitty! 🥰🥰 I forgot about the mustaches! 😄🙈 2y
Aaronofthe Aside from the life changing ideas about how the world doesn't care about you and you're just a minuscule cog in an immense machine.. I mostly just remember a cop being tied to a bear and thrown in a river.. and a rather sweet marriage proposal.. but it's been a while since I read it.. I could perceive it differently now. 1y
