Filled! Thank you. Excited to write to you too.

SnailmailSuch

Filled the form --happy to send holiday mail your way. 😊😊

Where I live, I need to seek out holiday decor at cafes etc. I wish we had the kind of immersive holiday decor as in some other parts of the country. But I love putting up a tree of my own and settling down with gifts and wrapping paper--preferably with a holiday movie on. ☺️

Thank you so much for posting! I truly had so much fun sending out WPD cards this year. 😌

SnailmailSuch

Yes thank you! Durga Puja was fun, at least the couple days I could salvage after work bulldozed my break 🥹

SnailmailSuch

Yay!! Glad it arrived 😸

SnailmailSuch

Yay!! You are welcome ☺️☺️

Strong +1 to that. They definitely were and had it not been for Strike not having his cellphone charger with him the first few days when he was recovering and Robin's call being answered by someone else instead of Strike...there might have been someth. 🥹🤧

Said this on another thread--I am definitely apprehensive about the Bijou-Baby thread making a comeback. :|

SnailmailSuch

Thank you u/CanaMeow!

SnailmailSuch

It felt completely unrealistic to me that he's leave the sample at Bijou's disposal esp when she has much to gain (her thoughts not mine) if the baby is actually Strike's (she was serious about him, per Ilsa's observation.) She does claim she doesn't want the baby to be Strike's but she overall didn't come across as the most reliable narrator to me so I have my doubts about her true intentions.

I've been getting this feeling too--esp the quotes being used in the later books. (Won't be able to cite a quote off the bat but it's a sense that's been building up slowly IMO) 🥹 It's like they'll know true love but not long enough for it to become domestic. 🤧 I'm somehow not able to find the words for it but something on the lines of their love being timeless/immortalised after one of them is gone and I have a feeling it will be Robin. 🥺

SnailmailSuch

I have your address from the form. :)

SnailmailSuch

Filled. Thank you for the offer! I'd love one (random is fine!). Happy to send you a WPD-themed card too. Please DM your address if interested.

SnailmailSuch

Hello! DM me your address please. :)

SnailmailSuch

THIS! This is the stream of consciousness rant I could not bring myself to type. All of the above--the mystery made no sense to me (and I actually LIKE longgg convoluted plots esp when I like the central characters so much). The threads were forced and so many weren't even tied back neatly in the end. Cry!

SnailmailSuch

I swear!!!

SnailmailSuch

I've found very strong able-ist undertones in COE and TIBH. 😞 And I think there's this excuse that since the protagonist is an amputee the author is exonerated.

SnailmailSuch

I agree--this may be the first such admission. She admits to being in love with him before meeting Ilsa at the Prince of Wales pub (the one themed like a Speakeasy with the champagne button?), and there's a reference to his physical presence next to her in the car after the escape from the Chapman Farm, a few references to his cologne (and one to surgical fluids) strewn through the books but no such inner declaration that crosses "fondness" territory. I liked the bit about the new shirt too!
