"You remind me that I am alive," she said, voice thick.

"You remind me that I am alive, too," he whispered.

"House of Flame and Shadow" has been released last month and I wanted to share a commission of two of my favorite characters from Crescent City: Lidia Cervos & Ruhn Danaan.

For those who have read HOFAS, hope you have enjoyed it as much as I did! 🥰

oh i don't know what young adult needs to hear this but you should google what day your 10,000th day will be & set a reminder in your calendar. it happens somewhere in your 27th year. i was really bummed when i googled my own and found out i had missed it by like 2 months.

(if you missed yours too, no worries, we both get another chance to celebrate 15,000 at 41. Unfortunately you will be 54 years old before you are 20,000 days old, at which point we will have overthrown the concept of linear time anyway)

life is very cute, and you have struggled a very long time to be here, and i love you. sometimes i think we need to invent our reasons for celebration. maybe today you are 10,345 days old. or 12,345. or 8,435. maybe u should just celebrate because it is a weekday, and those are hard days. i love u , light a candle and blow it out. i'm proud of you for staying.

"The roar of the wind was deafening, the strength of it buffeting them from side to side, the sand scouring over her exposed flesh, her eyes pure agony as she gripped Aren’s hand, dragging him forward step by step. You can do this, she silently screamed at herself. You will survive this."

“I’ve lived through some injustices in the last couple of centuries. Seen some fucking travesties. But one of the biggest, Oraya, is that anyone taught you that you should become anything other than exactly what you are.”

Every book I read in 2023: The Serpent And The Wings Of Night by Carissa Broadbent

"He did not fear my darkness, nor pity my compassion. And the truth was, the idea of dying without knowing him completely was torturous."

It’s interesting how differently vampires are presented based on whose eyes we see them through.

Oraya was raised by one and grew up in their world. She’s always walking that line between humans and vampires in TSATWON; between fight and fear with survival always in mind.

Lilith just walks into one’s house, pokes him with a needle, and stands in his doorway like, “Wrap it up, boy, we have work to do.”

Honestly, I kind of love that the tones for the Nightborn duology and Six Scorched Roses are so incredibly different.

Nightborn's a constant bloodbath/fight for survival with goth vibes and a ton of psychological trauma. Oraya is constantly looking over her shoulder. Guarding herself; guarding her heart:

And then there's Lilith, who strolls into a vampire's house and pokes him to see what happens:
