the fact that there are still graceling realm books coming out is such a gift to my teenage self. it is healing my inner child
the fact i have not found any hava art is criminal. must i do everything myself
in other news i still can't remember how to draw. anything working here is mostly by accident
i wish the color of her eyes were a bit clearer but i couldn't give up the dramatic lighting. it suits her

this book has one of my favorite depictions of trauma
it understands people can't go through horrenedous shit without carrying it with you into every part of your life
it allows hope for growth and healing without the expectation that people just surmount their trauma
this book carried the weight of a messed up character rather than just pushing forward through a narrative
it was definitely a character study and i'm so glad
