Rosamund Hodge and 13 other people liked W.R. Gingell's status update
W.R. Gingell
W.R. Gingell is 30% done with The Fellowship of the Ring: so basically Frodo is going into Wizard Witness Protection except he had to arrange it himself and i DO NOT REMEMBER him being so extremely adorably well organised about Running From the Dark Lord and Saving the World

yes, we must save the world but FIRST WE SELL THE HOUSE AND PUT ABOUT THE RUMOUR THAT WE ARE PECUNIARILY DISTRESSED SO NO ONE COMES LOOKING
Rosamund Hodge and 10 other people liked W.R. Gingell's status update
W.R. Gingell
W.R. Gingell is 15% done with The Fellowship of the Ring: "...he hated darkness, and he hated the light more..."

will never not get a kick in the guts from that line

i adore Frodo's innocently righteous anger about Smeagol/i adore Gandalf's wise loving kindness about Smeagol/i adore them both in juxtaposition

Reread this for the first time in a number of years, and it is still one of my favorite books of all time. Also one of the few books that makes me cry in almost every chapter. 😭❤️🔥✨

Quotes by Rosamund Hodge  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Where you go, I shall go; where you die, I shall die, and there will I be buried.”
Rosamund Hodge, Cruel Beauty

“They said that love was terrifying and tender, wild and sweet, and none of it made any sense.
But now I knew that every mad word was true.”
Rosamund Hodge, Cruel Beauty

“You deserve all that and more. It made me happy to see you suffer. I would do it all over again if I could." I realized I was shaking as the words tumbled out of me. "I would do it again and again. Every night I would torment you and laugh. Do you understand? You are never safe with me." I drew a shuddering breath, trying to will away the sting of tears.

He opened his eyes and stared up at me as if I were the door out of Arcadia and back to the true sky. "That's what makes you my favorite." He reached up and wiped a tear off my cheek with his thumb. "Every wicked bit of you.”
Rosamund Hodge, Cruel Beauty
