someday I'll find you, someday you'll find me too

I read Doomsday Book and To Say Nothing Of The Dog (both by Connie Willis) last week. DB broke my heart in a bunch of pieces and TSNotD made me laugh so much so it pretty much evened out. Both were excellent. ♥♥♥

I reread Steel Ball Run also because stopongreen's been reading it and we've been screaming about it at each other on LINE for a while and god I forgot how emotional the story is. And I ended up actually like full on weeping at my desk through the last part, even though it was a reread.


But these two make me so happy, tears or not. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

A huge part of Johnny's growth wasn't his being able to walk again but him being able to really trust and love someone again.

YES. AND YES. Like he was re-discovering himself as a person through Gyro.

And I loved how his goals kept changing, from finding the secret of the steel balls, attaining corpse, and just simply stopping Valentine's ambitions. BUT UGHHHH


Like Gyro really saved Johnny's life in pretty much every possible way. ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

UGHHHHHHHHHHH GYRO. JOHNNY'S PERFECT BEAUTIFUL ANGEL.
