Absolutely speechless

She'd laughed, and if he could have bottled the sound and gotten drunk on it every night, he would have. It terrified him.

The first of 4 endpapers I got to illustrate for Illumicrate’s special edition of Six of Crows!! So happy I finally got to draw this scene!!

When I tell her that, she always says, “I love you like all-fire.”

And I reply, “I love you like all-fire, too.”

THE END

[folkveliant]

“Lenore Dove likes it best there, and I’m content where she’s content. Like the geese, we really did mate for life.”

this epilogue is completely ruining me

[folkveliant]

A few days after that, Katniss showed up with an old basket filled with goose eggs. “Not to eat, to hatch. I raided a few different nests, so they can breed all right.”

i definitely love her

[folkveliant]

“Maysilee leaves the world the way she wanted, wounded but not bowed.”

i actually cannot do this anymore

[folkveliant]

“I don’t know how, and I don’t know where, I don’t know anything, but I feel that in my heart. You and me, we will find each other, as many times as it takes […] You stay alive, play your songs, love your people, live the best life you can. And I’ll be there in the Meadow waiting for you. It’s a promise. Okay?”

it’s NOT okay, i’m crying my eyes out

[folkveliant]

“You are on a high horse, mister. And someday someone will knock you off it straight into your grave.”

[folkveliant]

ever since i read the thg trilogy, katniss has been permanently engraved in my brain. any tiny reference, whether direct or just something that reminds me of her in tbosas and now in sotr, makes my mind scream “KATNISS!!!!!!”. she's everywhere.

[folkveliant]

“I never saw them, but Merrilee’s featured a hummingbird and Maysilee’s a mockingjay, birds being one of the Covey’s great loves.”

[folkveliant]

“Coriolanus felt sure he’d spotted his first mockingjay, and he disliked the thing on sight.”

in the end, the mockingjay came for you

[folkveliant]

just realized lucy gray actually poisoned the water reaper drank... i was so oblivious until highbottom mentioned it to coriolanus

[folkveliant]

i'm at the 50% mark of tbosas and dr. gaul is completely INSANE!!!

[folkveliant]

finally reading the ballad of songbirds and snakes. can't wait to see why everyone is obsessed with lucy gray

[folkveliant]

i can't believe what avery did, and of all people, to chiti. i'm going to have to read her remaining chapters so slowly just to process this

[folkveliant]

thrillers are just not for me. i feel like i'm going to die of anxiety if i don't find out what happened right away

[folkveliant]

with every new book ali releases, the confirmation that she values quantity over quality just keeps growing
