Super superrrr psyched that @everyforkedroad recommended that I give this a shot how exciting!!! I almost exclusively read queer fiction, I swear I keep trying to branch out but there's so much EPIC queer content...

So, that being said...

The last book I bought was: Summer Sons by Lee Mandelo (Southern Gothic queer horror story- slow burn romance and just so, so beautifully written.)

Borrowed: Drag Teen by Jeffery Self. (Cute, very cute story.)

Was Gifted: A Little Life By Hanya Yanagihara (It counts if I gifted it to myself, yes? Had them gift wrap it and everything) Also, it broke my Little heart. I still find myself muttering quotes from the book randomly in utter disbelief.

Gave/Lent to Someone: The Woman Who Made Me Feel Strange by Anna Ferrara (Such a good book- part of a trilogy, if I'm not mistaken and I plan on reading the other two soon BUT THE FIRST ONE WAS epiCccc)

Started: You Owe Me A Murder by Eileen Cook (Not a queer book- like I said I'm trying to branch out- and it's a thriller sort of crime thing? Not too bad so far)

Finished: We Need To Talk About Kevin by Lionel Shriver (Whew.)

Gave 5 Stars: The Library on Mount Char by Scott Hawkins ( One of my favourite lines: "I'd drop-kick the baby Jesus for a Marlboro." That is all.)

Didn't Finish: Avatar, The Last Airbender: The Shadow of Kyoshi by F.C. Yee (Things became intense and I got scared- I will eventually go back to it but first I intend to forget what made me stop reading in the first place.)

Personal reccomendationsssss cus I also love recommendations: They Year of the Witching by Alexis Henderson. Supernatural horror vibes with an amazing, epic woman of colour as the main character. Couldn't reccomend it enough.

Soooo, it'd be super cool if @use-your-words , @squash1 , @envyclearlace anddddd @crownamedtod shared their recently reads etc as well. anddddd anyone else!💜💜💜

Y'ALL

I just saw a tiktok where someone was like "uhm the new percy jackson show is just not it, the movies fit the vibes better" and while that is one of the wildest takes I've ever heard someone commented

"What vibes are you missing hun, whiteness and not being able to find percy sexy because he is actually 12 this time?"

I would not show my face in public again if I got eaten up like that in my own comment section

“Kitty Softpaws is a character that is all about hiding in the shadows — getting in and achieving her goals and getting out unnoticed. She's exactly the opposite of Puss, who loves to bask in the spotlight.”

— JANUEL MERCADO, CO-DIRECTOR (The Art of Dreamworks Puss in Boots: The Last Wish)

k so that poll about where Katniss and Peeta live once they're together is going around and I'm not here to tell anyone their headcanon is wrong but I keep seeing one thing in some tags that bothers me and that's the idea that Peeta's house doesn't have any ghosts, and the implication that Katniss is suffering the loss of Prim more than Peeta is suffering the loss of his family. His entire family.

I know his family didn't live with him, I know he had a bad relationship with his mom and his relationship with the rest of his family is a mystery, but that doesn't mean his house doesn't have ghosts. We don't know exactly what happened there besides the fact that he lived alone. His brothers could have come by to cheer him up, bringing cards to play poker and slap jack. He and his dad could have worked on new baking recipes in his kitchen. And look, even abusive parents aren't always terrible, and maybe his mom was trying to repair their relationship when he got back. We just don't know! And even if no one ever stepped a foot in his house the whole time, that is a whole other ghost--a feeling that he was never home, a house of his nightmares and pain and loneliness following returning from the Games.

I get that Katniss's loss was devastating and she externally reacts to it more than Peeta, who tries to hide the effect of his trauma, and I understand the logic that Peeta's house is easier or he would stuff down the pain to ease Katniss's, but he has ghosts in his house, too.

#the hunger games #peeta mellark #i know you guys love peeta too i just had to say this #bby boy stuffs down his trauma so deep it's easy to forget it's there sometimes but that boy is absolutely dying inside #and as for my own propaganda on the poll i'll just say that peeta always goes to katniss #and while memories of prim are in her house from the fact that they make the memory book i don't think that's necessarily a bad thing #she WANTS to remember prim #she's afraid to forget #and i think these two things (along with my headcanon that peeta hates his house and his happy memories are in katniss's) #that they stay in katniss's house #second choice is an apartment above the bakery that peeta obviously starts up once he's well enough

sorry, he's allergic to SOUP? no wonder he thinks he's destined for infinite sadness, i'd believe that too if my immune system thwarted me from slurpin down a nice hearty bowl of soup 😭

#len speaks #obi-wan kenobi #obiwan kenobi #obi wan kenobi #star wars #rots novelization #matthew stover #reason no. 928 why i need 2 finish this book: obi-wan allergy lore #reason no. 929 why i need 2 finish this book: obi-wan 'the negotiator' kenobi causing political mayham thru his inability 2 admit his SOUP #allergy. like... bby girl WHY did you do that? you caused politicians to start throwing CHAIRS at each other 💀 truly clownish behavior! #i dont love when ppl exaggerate his disregard for his own physical wellbeing (its fine up to an extent i think) but this is actual legends #material where he knowingly ingests something that can kill him. he's not an inherent walking disaster imo but dear god he has his moments! #also i realize this means he's allergic to one soup and not all soups. let a man make a joke abt his blorbo in peace pls and thank u #sidenote: found and confirmed the allergy bit in the book. cannot find reference to chair throwing. might be in an encyclopedia or deleted #article. i will accept this chair-throwing incident as fact unless proven otherwise 👍🏼

Something funny i thought of

Taking place post of the (first) wizarding war, everyone survives but the bond that linked James and Lily during the war is starting to dissolve. So they decide to go to marriage counseling. Their counselor? Pandora Rosier.

Bad news for Lily because she starts looking forward to the counseling session, not because she wants to fix her marriage, but because she looks forward to seeing Pandora. Who she may or may not have a slight crush on. She feels terrible because James also seems to look forward to the sessions, and Lily thinks it's because he actually wants to fix their marriage.

But James on the other hand, nah, he instead, looks forward to seeing his best mate's younger brother, Regulus, who enters at the end of all their sessions to drop off lunch or a drink for Pandora. He feels guilty because Lily seems to be excited about the sessions while he fantasizes about Regulus.

Shit news for both of them? They (James and Lily) both think Pandora and Regulus are dating.

(Spoilers they aren't)

#just imagine james and lily booking extra sessions like #“yep totally wanting to fix our marriage” #pandora sitting at the session and being like “i can treat u so much better bby” to lily subtly #and give james some raised brows every so often #reg isn't paying attention #hes just tryna make sure his bestie is taking care of herself #marauders #marauders era #regulus black #regulus arcturus black #james potter #james fleamont potter #james x regulus #jegulus #starchaser #lily j evans #lily jane evans #lily evans #pandora rosier #pandora lovegood #redpanda #pandalily my beloveds #pandalily #sunseeker #the marauders #these bitches gay #dead gay wizards #regulus and pandora
