I knew that living in the 60s as a mentally ill person wasn’t a pleasant experience but this book really opened my eyes and made me realise how HORRIBLE it must’ve been back then.
apart from that I love sylvia plath’s writing so much, you can just tell when an author is also a poet and the fig tree analogy might actually be the best thing that has ever been written. the main characters views on marriage, having kids and choosing a career are so ahead of it’s time and I felt so seen by them, I cant believe this was written almost 60 years ago.

this is the first virginia woolf novel I’ve read, which might not have been the best idea since the writing was really hard for me to understand at first and it took me almost 60-70 pages to get used to it, but once I did I was so impressed by how insanely beautiful virgina woolfs prose is and how well thought out all of the characters are.
Mrs Ramsey and Lily Briscoe might be some of my favourite characters of all time and I really love how this book portrayes topics like motherhood and marriage, especially considering the time that this was written in.

I used to think that fantasy wasn’t really for me, turns out I was just reading the wrong books because this is easily one of the best things I’ve ever read.
the world building and the storyline are incredibly compelling and the characters are all so well written, especially rin.
I can’t wait to read the rest of this series 🙏

I read this on the public transport in paris and I had to hold my tears back towards the end-
this is by far one of the most tragic yet beautifully written stories I have ever read, I haven’t been able to think about anything else since I finished it

there’s just something about unlikable and unhinged female narrators that secretly dislike their female best friend and can’t let go of their past relationship

this book had so much potential, because the story is really interesting but you can just tell that this was written by a man. 😞😞
One of the rare cases where I actually prefer the movie over the book

I’m not a huge nonfiction girlie but I loved this so much.
I’ve learned more important stuff by reading this book than I have in 11 years of school 🙏
