Uma Bruxa no Tempo- Constance Sayers (+18 anos)
Helen Lambert vive em 2012. Mas já foi Juliet, em 1890 em Paris; Nora em 1930 em Los Angeles e Sandra em 1970. Mas Helen só descobre isso depois que conhece Luke Verner e ela começar a ter sonhos extremamente vividos e detalhados sobre essas outras mulheres. Então ela se descobre presa em uma maldição.
Fadada a amar a mesma versão de um mesmo homem, August Marchant, Billy Rapp, Rich Nash e agora Robert Lambert. Suas vidas estão entrelaçadas pela amarração realizada há mais de um século na França, bem como sua relação está fadada ao fracasso. Mas assim como Roger sempre esteve presente na vida de Helen, Luke também esteve. Ele é o administrador de sua maldição e sempre deve saber como Helen está e seguir seus passos e a acompanha desde que era Juliet.
Esse livro tem uma vibe meio Addie Larue, ou seja, é uma narrativa bem lenta que não vai conquistar todo e qualquer leitor. Além de possuir uma lista considerável de gatilhos, principalmente relacionados à violência contra mulher, bem como prostituição e abuso de menores, então requer uma sensibilidade maior na leitura.
Dito isso, há dois anos esse livro habita minha mente como uma das histórias que mais me marcou. A autora conseguiu retratar toda emoção nas páginas, a angústia causada é quase palpável, a raiva, asco e, por fim, o amor, são muito bem construídos ao longo dos anos e o livro é genial em retratar a história passeando entre passado e futuro para no final estar tudo bem arramado.
É um bom livro para se ler no mês do halloween, pela temática ser de bruxas, mas também por ser um outro tipo de terror, diferente do que estamos acostumados a serem retratados na mídia. Eu chamaria de terror para mulheres em seus 20 anos.
Espero que gostem da leitura. Esse livro precisa de mais reconhecimento. 🤍

"Na hora, percebi como o tempo pode nos enganar. Não é natural testemunhar tantas mudanças radicais provocadas pelo tempo. As pessoas deveriam viver em seus pequenos bolsões de tempo e os acontecimentos deveriam ocorrer em intervalos digestíveis. Ver tanto tempo de progresso diante de nós é chocante demais - quase incompreensível. Isso nos faz duvidar de nossa importância no mundo. E sentir que somos importantes é essencial para nossa sobrevivência."
Uma Bruxa no Tempo, Constance Sayers.

Luke: Well, screw that. I'm gonna ruin his memorial.
Nora: if you read that speech you'll be fired.
Luke: ... you're right. And that would ruin my career.
Luke: And it's worth it. I'm giving the speech.

Juliet: I’m 147 pounds of pale skin and fragile bones okay? Sarcasm is my only defence.

I don't know how Terry managed it. There's just nothing on this earth like a Discworld book. I'll be listening to a book I've read countless times over and suddenly, a single line I've never even really noticed before will tear me open. They just reach right inside me and open my ribcage to expose my very heart.
Tonight, it was Hat Full of Sky and Granny Weatherwax saying, "The world is unfair. Be grateful you have friends." On their own, the words are unremarkable. But juxtaposed together, with the context they are operating in....they had tears flowing down my face before I knew what was happening. The world is unfair; sometimes, the wonderful happens when it shouldn't (and/or when you feel you deserve a divinely wrathful torment) because you have friends. The world is unfair. That doesn't just mean that the horrible happens when it shouldn't. It means that the beautiful does too. Be grateful you have friends. They are the hub on which that beauty spins, turning the theft into gold.
A lot of people I've introduced to these books haven't liked them — they find them too silly, or preachy, or nonsensical, or even puerile. I am never upset or really disappointed when they don't like them. To each their own. But I will never understand it. They are baked into my being in a way that few things are and I am better to myself, to other people, and to the world because of it.
Sir Terry, you were a gift nonpareil. Thank you for your words and for shaping my world.

Babysitting duty calls, Klarion
It another world threatening battle for the justice league, young justice against the league of Villains and chaos children before most of the chaos children froze as if they sense something bad was approaching and immediately dipped out.. except klarion whom was fighting with raven who immediately froze up too late in front of the portal.
Only for a green portal to appear, as a worned out floating glowing green, but blue skinned teenage boy who turn into a man with red eyes, a clock staff in hand and a glowing white hair baby in a baby carrier.
Klarion is literally struggling like a feral cat who got wet in cold water against some invisible force speaking in some odd static like language before giving up after half a minute when the man spoke back with a short word.
The man now just shape-shifting into turn elderly just gave klarion the baby carrier before noticing how the heroes and villains have stop in mid battles looking at both klarion and him.
"All in soon time, but be warn Flashes whom break the laws of times will get their due if you keep messing with the past and future." Spoken the elderly now shape-shifted into a young boy before he turn back to klarion leaving him a note and glowing baby bag before floating back into the swirling green portal.
Klarion could only look at note with his eye twitching, Teekl meowing as she climb into the baby carrier purring around the glowing baby.
"Why do I keep getting babysitting duty, it so unfa-..." klarion grumbled as he pick up the baby carrier and bag teleporting away..
....
....
....
"What just happened?" Said Dick whom only one question would be put on hold til later in the watchtower of what just happen before the fight resuming with the young and original justice league winning since the league of Villains were distracted.
