I got confused with broken bonds and broken blade so istarted broken bonds instead and finished all 3 books in one sitting..... I wasnt prepared for the reverse harem/dark romances and didnt like any of the heroes but stayed for the badass heroine who's feminine and sassy and funny. I still dont like Nox and no amount of tragic backstory can change that, and I really dont like how him SAing her is glossed over, that everyone is collectively agreeing that if she didnt want him to do what he did, she could have easily killed him. the one who claims its sa is of the minority and even the heroine is convinced. imma keep reading tho, for the other love interests. imma start broken blade now
normal kdramas have that scene where the guy saves the girl and then she catches feelings, but not gaus. no, instead, na rae realised she started to like sang sik after he covered up her fart w his and took the blame
why was Jerome so messy in season 1 lmaooo. and that hair.......
What Is a Simile?
Unlike metaphors, similes create a comparison using like and as. Perhaps you’ll recognize this famous example of simile from Forrest Gump: “Life is like a box of chocolates.”
In this case, the reader is more explicitly aware of the direct comparison that’s being made versus a metaphor or analogy. (Remember, a simile is a type of metaphor.) When it comes to simile use in writing, a good rule of thumb is to approach with caution and use similes sparingly.
Similes use the words like or as to compare things—“Life is like a box of chocolates.”
In contrast, metaphors directly state a comparison—“Love is a battlefield.”
They're all important when writing though. Making unconventional comparisons at times using similes and metaphors can add to your writing and make it much more layered and sophesticated. Eg:
His words wrapped themselves around me like Thorny vines of a spiteful plant, no more like the warm embrace of the sun on your skin.
Hope that was somewhat useful and In easy terms! Like, share and follow!
idk why but rose beating the shit out of Dimitri even after she won while everyone looks worried and gives each other sidelong glances is so funny to me
To all the writers who haven't written in a while. May the right words come to you and may they actually get written down.
lmaooo
When an English literature student goes through a heartbreak
You know, when I see fictional characters who repress all their emotions, they're usually aloof and very blunt about keeping people at a distance, sometimes to an edgy degree—but what I don't see nearly enough are the emotionally repressed characters who are just…mellow.
Think about it. In real life, the person that's bottling up all their emotions is not the one that's brooding in the corner and snaps at you for trying to befriend them. More often than not, it's that friendly person in your circle who makes easy conversation with you, laughs with you, and listens and gives advice whenever you're upset. But you never see them upset, in fact they seem to have endless patience for you and everything around them—and so you call them their friend, you trust them. And only after months of telling them all your secrets do you realize…
…they've never actually told you anything about themselves.
