♪ Oh Golly…. ♪

I do sometimes think about all the smaller ways Sadie has been let down by other characters.

I think about how she was too young to understand that her grandparents tore her away from her father and brother.

I think about how she internalized that as abandonment by her dad, and that scar never went away even when she was old enough to understand.

I think about how she was in a bad mood at the beginning of the first book because most of the time with her dad was already gone.

I think about how she initially perceived her dad taking her and Carter to the British Museum as prioritizing his work over being her dad.

I think about how Sadie questioned if her dad and brother even still loved her.

I think about how she's always the one to be unfailingly loyal.

I think about how she trusted Bast when a magician accused Bast of abandoning her duty.

I think about how she believed Amos was in control of Set's power at the climax of the third book when everyone else doubted.

I think about how she still visited Bes's comatose body, despite not liking places like hospitals and nursing homes.

I think about how no one really extended her the same.

I think about how her grandparents didn't fight to keep her at home with them in Britain.

I think about how Carter chose to go after Zia instead of going with Sadie to find the book of Ra.

I think about how that made Sadie cry.

I think about Sadie, who feels abandonment extremely acutely, was forced to sacrifice her dad.

It's just something I think about.

The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue. Absolutely amazing.

As a person who is dying for book recommendations: What is a book you picked up randomly that you heard nothing about previously that blew you away?

I feel like we all have at least one hidden gem we stumbled upon.

Please reblog with your books in the tags :)

I think I peaked with this art specifically

The type of parents who argue that simply putting food on the table and keeping a roof over their kids' head is sufficient parenting are always so shocked when their children no longer want to deal with them once they've got their own place and can buy their own groceries. Like what else did you expect to happen? You told the people who had no other choice than rely on you for food and shelter that asking for any more than that is unreasonable of them, and then they don't go to you for anything once they can get those some other way. What would they go to their parents for?

They've got food at the house.

"irreversible side effects of HRT" all of life is irreversible. i cannot go back a single second in time

that scene in tlo where thalia tells percy he can't start feeling sorry for luke bc luke made his choices. and thalia reveals that the reason they couldn't make it to camp in time for all of them to make it to camp was bc luke kept picking fights. and annabeth never saw this as wrong bc luke was her hero. so thalia had to pick up the pieces. and percy thinking both that luke was put in a cruel position and that luke was putting others in a cruel position. and percy is the only character who understood both sides of luke bc annabeth sees only the best of him and thalia sees only the worst. and that's why percy is the prophecy kid and the one who gives luke the knife. bc annabeth had spent the entire series essentially giving luke the knife when he didn't deserve it. and thalia was never going to give luke the knife. but percy is the only one who can see exactly when luke deserves the knife.
