Some of the highest praise I can give a book is that it made me feel and think deeply. This book went above and beyond in those two categories. It was devastating, adorable, hopeful, unique, real and overall an incredible read. It left me pondering the characters, their circumstances and the world for days after I turned the last page.

Do yourself a favor and read this book, if we鈥檙e anything alike I know you鈥檒l love it.

陹� quotes 陹�

鈥漈o be vulnerable is a strength most of us fear. It takes courage to let down your armor, to welcome people to see you as you are.鈥�

鈥淚 can't risk having people behold me as I truly am. But there's also a small voice in the back of my mind, a voice that tells me, 鈥榊ou will miss so much by being so guarded.鈥欌€�

鈥淚 can't expect someone else to make me feel complete; I must find it on my own. And I think I was always writing for myself, to sort through my loss and worry and tangled ambitions. Even now, I think about how effortless it is to lose oneself in words, and yet also find who you are.鈥�

鈥淥thers who share your pain will also help you heal. Because you are not alone. Not in your fear or your grief or your hopes or your dreams. You are not alone.鈥�

鈥淚t鈥檚 not a crime to feel joy, even when things seem hopeless. Iris, look at me. You deserve all the happiness in the world. And I intend to see that you have it.鈥�

鈥淗e began to see the invisible threads that drew him to Iris. It didn't feel like fate; Roman didn't quite believe in such fancies. But it certainly felt like something. Something that was now stealing his sleep and making his chest ache with each breath.鈥�

鈥淚 don't think you realize how strong you are, because sometimes strenght isn't swords and steel and fire, as we are so often made to believe. Sometimes it's found in quiet, gentle places.鈥�

鈥淚 don鈥檛 want to wake up when I鈥檓 seventy-four only to realize I haven鈥檛 lived.鈥�

鈥淵ou are worthy of love. You are worthy to feel joy right now, even in the darkness. And just in case you鈥檙e wondering聽鈥� I鈥檓 not going anywhere, unless you tell me to leave, and even then, we might need to negotiate.鈥� ...more

I cannot wait to read the second book!

I did not expect to like this book as much as I did. Based on the era and the premises of the story, I honestly thought I would struggle to get through this book. But it was the opposite. I loved it and got through it so quick, I could not wait to see how the story went.

It was so gripping and there was not a single part of the book that I did not enjoy.

i am so glad that i let myself get out of a slump before reading this. roman kitt is now 2nd on my book boyfriends list. i loved all the elements of this book so much and iris and roman are just *chef's kiss*

dnf for now, not because i don't like it, but I'm still in a slump and I want to enjoy this rather than just forcing myself to read it. ...more

i don鈥檛 know how i feel about this.
i was so excited, i wanted to read this book for months and even now i still wanting to buy it in physical.
however, something didn鈥檛 work for me.
as a humanistic girlie, it was a dream, two rival journalists that appreciated and respected their works, two kids who dream about being writers united by fate and two magical typewriter.
maybe it was the world-building that was dull, not very well developed and i just feel the gods鈥� lore kinda childish.
but i liked ...more
