Oh god me too, Violet. That's why we're not parents, probably.

I'm actually pretty new to the fandom! I only read Outlander about eight months ago after I read the LJG books. Of course then I read the next six books in about three months. Just devoured them. But I never had to wait except for a couple months between finishing 7 and 8 being published. So I can't pretend to…

Jack is literally a sexual Sadist. It's written into his character. Not sure which book or character calls him that, but that's his motivation. That and he's ashamed of his latent homosexuality/fear of impotence.

So they're the "crisis pregnancy centers" of adoption agencies? Yuck.

Whenever "common sense" gets trotted out by religious organizations, my brain figuratively runs screaming for the hills.

This is getting fucking ridiculous, America.

I just read The Suffragette Scandal today. I literally squeed aloud with triumphant joy when I saw that she was taking two supporting characters in a direction I had been hoping for ever since The Heiress Effect. I love Courtney Milan so hard. The last book in the series comes out in two weeks. I can't wait for it.…
