I fucking love Bella Ramsey and the cruel posts and comments I see within five minutes of being on the internet make me make me so angry and upset. It’s been on my mind so much I had a dream about them last night.

Ordered this based on the November date being my birthday. But I’ve heard it’s good, too. ‘In the first part of Solvej Balle’s epic septology, Tara Selter has slipped out of time. Every morning, she wakes up to the 18th of November.’

Went to my very favourite place in the world to watch the sunset and I’m the happiest little happy thing in the world.
