Im about 100 pgs in! I'm absolutely entranced by Kim's depiction of ballet. I know nothing about ballet schools or the like, but I feel like I do now!! The book is so dreamy and atmospheric, and I love how draws you into the MCs mind.
The story telling jumps between past and present. I'm starting to see our MC really start to fracture as she comes to terms with what she went through when she returns to her home and is faced with familiar people and places. A deeply relatable feeling tbh when you return to your hometown ☠️
Current read! The closest I'll get to being a ballerina.

Me while writing: oh hell yes this is such a good sentence I'm the master of poetic imagery
The writing when I go back to edit:
doctor he wants to talk about his ocs but has nothing concrete to say about them. and yes it's fatal.
seen a lot of these with your favorites, but reblog with the CURRENT book you are reading, show you are streaming, the last movie you watched, and any game/puzzle/crafts you’re working on
having thoughts
museums should repatriate artifacts belonging to living cultures and display reproductions instead
Do y'all ever read a fic so good that it makes you want to elevate your own craft and also befriend the writer? It's almost like, "Hi! You write so well that you've inspired me to embark on a creative training arc. Also, can I yell about the character in your dms because you get it?"
i can't do this anymore! i mean i can, and i will, obviously. but i can't fucking do this anymore!
