@˚ʚ b. andy ɞ˚ You know what? You're so right. I'm waiting for the head pats, please
I just hope that I'll manage to stick with it till the end unlike the previous book where I only read half of it even though I enjoyed it
And it was a much smaller book too
You were born with the emo in you
Makes sense
Luckily I don't have a long day tomorrow but still-
@˚ʚ k. orm ɞ˚ Diligence is the key -u-
I'm proud of you for sticking to the book
You earned yourself a head pat
Me and mobid just go hand in hand
Can't help what I was born with
Mmmf you're wild for drinking so late, drink lots of wawa
@˚ʚ b. andy ɞ˚ Yeah reading jasmine throne, there's also a bunch of new terminology but I understand most of it within the context so it's not bad
Well done for being diligent
Part of the charm lmaao
Of course you'd like morbid things like that
Nothing, just being awake at an unfortunate time
If it ain't the consequences of my own actions
Granted, I was supposed to have that coffee way earlier
@˚ʚ k. orm ɞ˚ The way it starts is very........ cringey? And sometimes my mind doesn't understand certain things but I've been super diligent and it levels out later in the book.
Lots of people die tbvh but that's part of the charm
@˚ʚ k. orm ɞ˚ I've been eating up fourth wing and ngl it does have some issues but for the most part I really like the characters. UgH heartbroken over one of them rn.
Sleep plenty you need it
@˚ʚ b. andy ɞ˚ Aww that's kinda cute. Childhood friends to lovers and we love the character development for the other guy
Also, I just started reading The Jasmine Throne...
I've been eyeing it for a while and since you might potentially read it I thought it would be nice to read it too and we can talk about it or whatever
So thanks for motivating me
I've only had time to read two chapters so far but I'm already quite invested
@˚ʚ k. orm ɞ˚ Fourth wing is my latest conquest-
Kissed by angel is pretty much as you've described it. The guy dies but stays with her bc her life is in danger. "Both stunningly attractive" I'd like to say that this novel is dated therefore somewhat archaic in description but it still happens in books released nowadays.
Throne of glass, okay so yes there is a love triangle but I actually prefer the other relationships this character has, her first love is another spy she grew up with. They try to run away together after taking on a extremely dangerous mission but he ends up getting murdered by his target. But the love there was :chefs kiss:
Then her final love interest who can be a jerk upon first meeting turns into this charming, supportive love interest. The triangle is really just on section of it.
It's a lot to take in LOL
Oh okay so Fourth Wing is just one that has been on your mind lately?
Hm... Elizabeth Chandler is a familiar name. So he dies and then stays by her side basically? I also love how this is one of the first things we know about the plot and characters: "both stunningly attractive"
Throne of glass... Is that Sarah J Maas? Okay, I checked and it is. Now that one smells like a love triangle
But I kind of get the vibe you mean with the mix of these two
Well now I'm feeling a lot of pressure over a book I haven't even read. But alright, we'll see how it goes.
@˚ʚ b. andy ɞ˚ Nope, not at all. He had a very strong reaction to it. It was actually kind of funny.
But I asked you which book would you like your love life to be most like- is it because there's dragons? you want a pet dragon, is that what's going on?
That's fine, I've got a few ready. Might actually help me get some reading done as well.... Potentially
@˚ʚ b. andy ɞ˚ A lot of these types of books tend to follow similar tropes so it wasn't that hard to guess
Communicating with the dragons is a pretty cool feature though.
I asked my friend about it because he read a third of the book and gave up. Safe to say he didn't have many good things to say about it
But hey. As long as you enjoy it, that's what matters
Not sure if it's quite the epitome of romance though
Try reading The Jasmine Throne. You might enjoy it. I think it's a trilogy or at least there are three books out so far. It's got magic, enemies to lovers and I think it also has spice?? I haven't read it but I've heard good things
@˚ʚ k. orm ɞ˚ It's like you're a psychic reading this plot LOOOL
you're almost there now let me add something extra on top.
It's like how to train your dragons
When your dragon is mated with another dragon so you're over here stuff and technically bonded with no choice.
Also the dragons can talk to their riders and I suspect they are goof balls at times
@˚ʚ b. andy ɞ˚ Is the love interest broody and mysterious?
With like a traumatic past....
I can see the main character being kind of similar
Unless she's the more hopeful one
And then they trauma bond
Am I guessing correctly here?
@˚ʚ b. andy ɞ˚ Okay so I watched a review of Fourth Wing and Iron Flame from one of my go to book YouTubers
I now know a bit more about the plot but still not an awful lot to fully have an opinion
According to him though, the follow up very much flopped in every category. Don't know if you've read it yet
Overall I kind of get the gist,,, high stakes, enemies to lovers etc etc
