If you steal any of the books from the library, I will know, and you’ll be sorry. — Jessamine Lovelace.

books read in 2018 → Through Blood, Through Fire (Ghosts of the Shadow Market #8) by Cassandra Clare & Robin Wasserman 

“There were those who believed that because Jem was so kind, so capable of gentleness and generosity, because Jem loved so selflessly, that Jem was weak. There were those who suspected he was not capable of violence or vengeance, who assumed they could hurt Jem and the ones he loved with impunity, because he did not have it in him to strike back. Those who believed this were wrong. Those who acted on it would be sorry.”

I just started reading the Throne of Glass series by Sarah J Maas and it is REALLY good so far. I’ve always heard really good things about it, and with the show coming out for Hulu, I wanted to get a jump on it before that comes out. Also, Celaena is a total bada**

       “Tessa.”        Her heart stopped.        A great wave of lurching dizziness passed over her, and for a moment she wondered if she were going mad, if after so many years the past and the present had blended within her memories until she could no longer tell the difference. For the voice she heard was not the soft, silent voice-within-her-mind of Brother Zachariah. The voice that had echoed in her head once a year for the past one hundred and thirty years.        This was a voice that drew out memories stretched thin by years of recollection, like paper unfolded and refolded too many times. A voice that brought back, like a wave, the memory of another time on this bridge, a night so long ago, everything black and silver and the river rushing away under her feet…        Her heart was pounding so hard, she felt as if it might break through her rib cage. Slowly she turned, away from the balustrade. And stared.        He stood on the pavement in front of her, smiling shyly, hands in the pockets of a pair of very modern jeans. He wore a blue cotton jumper pushed up to the elbows. Faint white scars decorated his forearms like lacework. She could see the shape of the rune Quietude, which had been so black and strong against his skin, faded now to a faint imprint of silver.        “Jem?” she whispered, realizing why she had not seen him when she’d been searching the crowd for him. She had been looking for Brother Zachariah, wrapped in his parchment-white robe, moving, unseen, through the throng of Londoners. But this was not Brother Zachariah.        This was Jem.

Commissions

Hi everyone! I’m Ele, and I run the TSC account @tiberiusblacktorn on Tumblr. Since Summer 2017, I’ve been consistently creating and designing edits to post online, not solely for the enjoyment of the fandom, but for my own fulfillment as well. Working on Photoshop is truly a passion. At the age of fourteen, I downloaded Photoshop for the first time and had absolutely no idea what I was doing. However, I was determined to learn. I took matters into my own hands and taught myself how to create GIFs, colourize images and properly remove backgrounds. I learnt how to sharpen, brighten and saturate. Day by day, I continuously learn how to improve the quality of my work. And still, day by day, my passion for editing grows. Hoping to perhaps pursue a career within the field of Graphic Design, I’ve decided I would start commissioning my work to those who enjoy it. By doing so, I can begin navigating the financial aspect of graphic designing. Currently, I’m an unemployed Literature student in college. Your support would mean the absolute world to me!

“You know that feeling when you are reading a book, and you know that it is going to be a tragedy; you can feel the cold and darkness coming, see the net drawing tight around the characters who live and breathe on the pages. But you are tied to the story as if being dragged behind a carriage and you cannot let go or turn the course aside. I feel now as if the same is happening, only not to characters on a page but to my own beloved friends and companions. I do not want to sit by while tragedy comes for us. I would turn it aside, only I struggle to discover how that might be done.”

There’s something about a place you’ve been with someone you love. It takes on a meaning in your mind. It becomes more than a place. It becomes a distillation of what you felt for each other. The moments you spend in a place with someone… they become part of its bricks and mortar. Part of its soul. // (x)
