"this female character is underdeveloped" TO YOU. I can read subtext and I know all about her backstory and her rich inner life. also she told me personally

literally the worst phrase to come out about em*rald f*nnel's new wuthering heights adaptation is "oh this is NOT your mother/English teacher's wuthering heights 😉😏" like. the actual wuthering heights book ALREADY wasn't my mother's wuthering heights and it was already an unhinged and twisted story and didnt need whatever the fuck this new movie is doing

"Emily Brontë doesn't care, why do you??" well first off she's dead, so she literally can't care, which is why it's my sacred duty as a wuthering heights fan to be a huge bitch about this horrible adaptation on her behalf

jane austen’s pride and prejudice (1813) has many great moments that i’d gladly make thousands of posts analyzing but i just love the “accomplished woman” scene SO much. like you could get rid of the rest of the book and be left with that scene and you would still have the thesis of the book laid out pretty nicely for you. as he lists the characteristics an accomplished woman has, darcy actually means to pay elizabeth a compliment, since he clearly holds her in high regard and would probably include her in his list of accomplished women, but she interprets it as both an insult and his ego coming through. their respective prejudices blind one to the other’s true intent and understanding in what is essentially a summary of the book’s entire point and it’s such a big chef’s kiss from me!!! in this essay i will—

What part of your morning routine takes the longest?

Finding the will to live.

“I love unmade beds. I love when people are drunk and crying and cannot be anything but honest in that moment. I love the look in people’s eyes when they realize they’re in love. I love the way people look when they first wake up and they’ve forgotten their surroundings. I love the gasp people take when their favourite character dies. I love when people close their eyes and drift to somewhere in the clouds. I fall in love with people and their honest moments all the time. I fall in love with their breakdowns and their smeared makeup and their daydreams. Honesty is just too beautiful to ever put into words.”
