(Re-reading It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover currently, so I can read It Starts With Us)
*spoilers below* lol
Topic: RYLE 😑
Everything he does is CRINGE
Much like Lily, I missed all the red flags the first time
He was literally beating up a chair when she met him
Second time she sees him, he tells her he doesn’t ever want to see her again
THEN
He knocked on 29 apartment doors ?! TWENTY NINE DOORS 😂 BECAUSE HE WANTED TO FUCK HER 😂😂😂😂

“ And the thing of it is, Ian was totally right. Mickey had no recourse against any deadly machinations that Ian might have, and Stockholm Syndrome had already long since kicked in. Still, it was messed up that a ruthless bio-terrorist had disguised himself as an unassuming high school English teacher and Mickey had no qualms in saying so.
“Or–and hear me out–you simply caught the flu, it knocked you on your ass, and you’re being a massive baby about it,” Ian postulated.
Mickey gamely considered this wild conjecture and countered with his own masterful hypothesis.
“You’re a massive baby,” he whispered hoarsely.
It was a flawless victory and Ian graciously accepted his defeat so he could get Mickey dry and warmed up, and back to bed. ”

Terry Pratchett, the Grand Wizard of Discworld
image borrowed from TVtropes.com I firmly believe that I would never have succeeded as a teacher and never gotten my resolve wrapped around the whole nonsense package of being a published author if I hadn’t picked up a copy of Mort, the first Discworld novel by Terry Pratchett that I ever encountered.  I started reading the book as a veteran dungeon-master at D&D role-playing games and also as a…

Luigi Pirandello

In words, words. Each one of us has within him a whole world of things, each man of us his own special world. And how can we ever come to an understanding if I put in the words I utter the sense and value of things as I see them; while you who listen to me must inevitably translate them according to the conception of things each one of you has within himself. We think we understand each other, but we never really do. [Six Characters in Search of an Author]

Love Comes Softly
By Janette Oake
5 million stars
Tumblr media
Have you ever gone back to read one of your most formative books - books from when you were 9-10, books you RE-read until you could quote them out loud? Periodically I’ve been doing that over the past 5 years - Lloyd Alexander’s series, Robin McKinley’s ya books, Mara, and all of them were amazing to reread - absolutely magical.
Some of my rereads continued into my 20s, like the Tolkien books and the classics (Austen and Brontë- both)… but for some reason, I stopped rereading Janette Oake. Ok, maybe it was because I had gotten rid of the series that I had painstakingly bought with my money (or my parents’ money) over the years - don’t ask me why, big mistake. BUT! This book!
I remember a huge wooden built in shelf in the fellowship area outside the sanctuary over by the coffee at church. Must have been 9 or 10 at the time, had read all of the little house books… and the cover reminded me of it, so I borrowed it. That book, that was my first real romance - and it’s heartache and tenderness and faith was everything to me. As I was rereading it this month after over 25 years of forgetting it? Passages felt like revisiting core memories of myself, words that are embedded deeply in my soul, feelings coming out as tears remembering these characters as real to me when I was a child. I loved Clark - he was Pa from little house, but a hot man of faith. And Marty meant the world to me, struggling through so much and coming to faith and love despite it all. Seeing her with adult eyes, I still found so much in her to love.

This book, more than anything, set me up. Marriage of convenience- I had no idea that was where this trope fixation came from! Slow burn, emotional, inspirational, all of these deeply impacted me. Strong female friendships, children in romance, I love them.
I don’t think people really understand the power of this simple book. Yes, there is a sense of judgementalism, continuing on with the western mythology, and sweeping ugliness under the rug. But, one simple woman learning to trust and love - Marty and Clark forever 💜
