I'm tired! So no gif! Slim month for reading, but I did some neat crafts and made great progress on Secret Knitting Project I. Kicked some ass at Project Sekai, started rewatching Leverage, life goes on.
Tumblr media
The Foxglove King by Hannah Whitten ⭐⭐ - A strong start, but it quickly went downhill once we got to the court. It was boring, everyone sucks, and the magic is not as cool as it originally seemed to be.
Among Thieves by MJ Kuhn ⭐½ - I was SO hyped for this when it was released. It's been sitting on my shelf since because of who I am as a person, like an IMPOSTER. Took more than half the book just to get to the heist, and the heist wasn't even GOOD. Too many POVs, no one felt fleshed out enough, and the Secrets were just handed to the reader in the first third. It will no longer live on my shelf.
Mislaid in Parts Half Know by Seanan McGuire ⭐⭐⭐⭐ - not my favorite Wayward book, but still enjoyable. I thought it rehashed the ending of Antsy's last book a little too much, but it was nice to see more of her and go back to the Store. Also loved seeing Kade's Door and Cora's ending.
I have one (1) concrete book plan for April, and that's Midnight Riot by Ben Aaronovitch. Consider me successfully bullied (friendly). I very much want to finish Secret Knitting Project I so I can move on to Secret Sewing Projects and Momther's Blanket I'm still waiting on a few audio holds too, so that will be fun for crafting purposes. Haven't been in the mood to do much art, but I have some fun ideas for paint! Let's go!

BROOKE OMG YOU HAVE DONE IT AGAIN HOLY SHIT I'M CRYING
That new fic was absolutely spectacular I'm crying. Steve would be so dumb to "protect" the love of his life even though all he did is made her life significantly more difficult. Like I can't even imagine waking up and being completely alone and nobody is talking to me. I know he meant well but god all he did is hurt everyone, it must be also so hard for Robin working with her bff and not really talking to her. But then when she was talking about her nightmares/memories and Steve's the one person that will always come up, that's some pure soulmate shit if I ever seen one. Ofc she remembers Steve and ugggh I want to cry because shit I want something like this, a love who conquers everything even a demon sucking all my memories out of my mind. I would love to imagine that her memories will come back time after time now with the help of Steve and the others. But even if not they still have time to get to know each other again and that's also beautiful.
Thank you for giving us a happy end because I hate angst without one, like I'm not strong enough to endure complete heartbreak lol idk how others can but I'm a little bitch lol.
THANK U FOR READING ANON I APPRECIATE U SO MUCH!!!!
yeah something i try really hard to do is stick true to the characters/not sacrifice character arc for the ease of plot so like. when I was trying to figure out how this fic worked I had a moment of 'now wait is this just cuz its convenient or would he actually do that' and honestly. the well intentioned doofus would. like I didn't include it for word count sake but I did imagine this whole scene of robin and Nancy ganging up on him and fully blowing their lids on Steve ahfkshg
I am a happy ending SAP like if there's not a happy ending I Will Not. ill stop shows halfway through. ill put books down. I simply will not. l will sit through the most agonizing torturous stuff AS LONG AS I get that sweet happy ending <3
