when john green wrote “to fall in love with the world isn’t to ignore or overlook suffering, both human and otherwise. for me anyway, to fall in love with the world is to look up at the night sky and feel your mind swim before the beauty and the distance of the stars. it is to hold your children while they cry, to watch as the sycamore trees leaf out in june. when my breastbone starts to hurt, and my throat tightens, and tears well in my eyes, i want to look away from feeling. i want to deflect with irony, or anything else that will keep me from feeling directly. we all know how loving ends. but i want to fall in love with the world anyway, to let it crack me open. i want to feel what there is to feel while i am here”

next part of fine line?

submitted by @kathrynreads

hey! I love the work you are doing on this channel, I've read almost all of them

I know you're writing the next part of watermelon sugar and I was wondering for the part after that\

could you do it so that it's like Christmas time and Jude's siblings have low key shunned her and wont talk to her and she feels upset/abandoned/rejected

and cardan doesn't know what makes him do it but he takes her to see the Christmas lights around town 

(this is happening on new years eve btw)

and when they come back, they decide to watch the ball drop on the tv

then they slowly talk for like 30 seconds. things get said, and it ends with cardan kissing Jude on the lips?

Right when the ball drops and the ppl on the tv yell happy new year

could you make it angst in the beginning + fluff at the end?

Thank you so much. I am so excited to how you are going to do this!

oh hi, lovely! thank you so much for all of the kind words and support 🥺👉👈❤️❤️ while i think this is a really cute idea, i have pretty much all of Fine Line planned out already. i also don't usually take super specific requests for my long fics, as it's hard to weave my own ideas with lots of different ideas from different people into one cohesive plot.

having said that, i do take super specific requests for one/two/three shots. i think your idea would make an adorable self-contained story, and i'd be happy to take it on as a request for a Christmas one shot if you want?

Book Tag!!

I was tagged by Kathryn! Thanks so much! This is my first tag! (sorry it took so long)

RULE 1: Always post the rules.

RULE 2: Answer the questions the person who tagged you asked and write 10 new ones.

RULE 3: Tag 10 people and link them to the post.

RULE 4: Tell them you have tagged them.

Why do you read?

I LOVE experiencing different stories and getting to know different characters. Its really for the journey.

Who is/are your favorite author/s?

There are so MANY. Maggie Stievater. She just blew my mind with The Raven Boys to the point where I can't get out of their world. (I want more GANSEY)

What book that made you cry?

Other than the obvious TFIOS, I cried while reading If I Stay by Gayle Forman. There are definitely others but this one I was just teary through out the book.

Who is the fictional character that you can relate to?

This is a hard one. I can kinda relate to Katniss (personality wise) or even Blue (from The Raven Cycle) or Allyson (from Just One Day). (Im not sure if I can relate to them or just love those characters or I just want to be them)

Do you love bookmarks?

YES. I love how creative some people can be with them! I really just want to make my own sometimes.

Do you highlight books when reading?

On the kindle I do...

Nicholas Sparks or John Green?

John Green. I've read two Nicholas Sparks books. I liked one while I HATED the other. Maybe I just need to try more of his books?

How do you manage to read books despite busy schedules?

I read a little bit every day. Maybe in between classes or when I am waiting for a professor to show up or continue on with the lesson. While taking breaks doing home work or trying to procrastinate. I kinda know how to manage my time so I don't usually have a problem not being able to read.

What is your favorite book cover?

Only ONE? The only one that stands out in my mind is the UK edition of The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky.

Any book recommendations?

The Raven Cycle by Maggie Stiefvater, Gemma Doyle Trilogy by Libba Bray, Just One Day by Gayle Forman, and The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern.

This was fun! But I am not going to tag anyone sorry! (I dont think I even know 10 people to tag)

kathrynreads replied to your photo“I miss reading. I miss my books. I miss buying new books. I miss...”

Oh Loi! We got the same prob, or attitude instead, I don't like borrowing. I like books as owning them. <3 And oh I love Jane Austen!

   Wow. And I thought I'm the only one. Hahaha. That's great. And yeah, it's better loving books when you own them :> Really? Then I'll start with that soon! :)
