@seekjustice I just finished Parts 1 and 2 of Stars Fill Infinity and I NEED TO GUSH ABOUT IT.
CHESSY AND SAPPHIRE. ARE SO GOOD. I can’t even tell which is my favorite. When I read Sapph’s POV, I immediately think she’s my favorite, but then go back to Chessy’s and then she’s my favorite again. THEIR RELATIONSHIP. THEIR PAINED, HARD, REAL, RELATIONSHIP. AND THEY are just so SELFLESS AND GOOD BUT NEVER ONE DIMENSIONAL AND THEIR PERSONALITIES 😀 SAPPH’S TRYING. Her speaking to Justice about Chessy and BOSSING HIM AROUND MY WORD! AND QUILLON AND JONAS <3 OH MY WORD. Quillon and Sapphire are so sweet! And Jonas is so mature 😀 And Iras and Kendall and Waif and Lauren. MY WORD. Every side character is never boring and their own character with their own quirks. And Maria Caderousse. What she will get for what she did to my poor Chessy…
Also Justice. I still don't know what to think about him. His complex personality is just so realistic and intriguing though. And now I'm so interested in what his real name might be. XD
AND RAIN. HOW CAN I EVER TALK ENOUGH ABOUT HER. HER BLUE HAIR and SPUNK and WISDOM.
ALSO CHESSY'S DAD. WITH KAI AND CHESSY AND SAPPH. ANd he KNEW ABOUT CHESSY! AND KAI IS JUST ADORABLE.AND THAT WAS JUST THE CHARACTERS. I don't exactly remember as much about Les Mis because it was a long time ago but I think the changes are so amazing with CHESSY AND SAPPH and their dad and the new world that TOTALLY MAKES SENSE AND SEEMS SO FAMILIAR.
AND THE THEMES ABOUT FAMILY AND THE SISTERS AND FORGIVENESS <3 I just… This is amazing.
I can't stop reading.
I need to go into hibernation now to finish Part 3 😀
This comment though! OH. MY. WORD. Can I ever tell you how much I love it?
Thank you so, so, so, so, much! (I read it aloud to my sister and now she’s going around shouting “and WISDOM!” because Rain is also one of her favourite characters.)
I’m really glad that you love it, because I love it too and I’m glad to have shared a little bit of my heart.
I also hope that you still talk to me after you’ve finished Part 3…
SAPPHIREEEEEEEE NOOOOOOOO
RAINNN AND JONAS AND KENDALL AND WAIF AND IRAS WHY???
*breathes* I KNOW IT”S LES MIS AND EVERYONE DIES. BUT THAT DOES NOT MEAN I WAS PREPARED.
*sighs* *takes a deep breath*
(As you may have guessed I finished part 3 :P)
BUT THE REST. IT”S SO SAADDDDD BUT HOW JUSTICE CHANGES… *sigh* It’s bittersweet. AND KAI IS ALL GROWN UP AND CHESSY IS HELPING PEOPLE AND JUSTICE AND QUILLON ARE KAI’S UNCLES. *sniffs* *gathers all the characters for a hug*
Okay but I just LOVE how it ends. I KNEW IT WAS CHESSY’S DAD! AND HE SAVED BOTH OF THEM! Also I’ve never liked Marius (at least in movie versions) for the way he takes Cosette away from Jean. BUT JUSTICE WAS AMAZING AND NOT THAT. How he hugged Chessy’s father and read the Bible… I think I squealed.
AND THIS PART IS JUST SO AMAZINGLY TRUE I *LOVE* How Justice changes his views and how he says, “Even if our revolution had succeeded, we would have taken parliament and then copied them exactly.” I squealed there. This needs to be in more books, THIS GOLD HERE.
*dies*
*revives* I’m a normal human again. I think. So now like a normal human I’ll respond to your comment 😀
Haha, well… I can’t tell you how much I love your book, so…
You’re so welcome 😀 Haha! Oh, Rain… :'(
And Micah 6:9 … is that where your name
on KP comes from?
I’M SO SO SORRY!!!
Luckily, I am prepared and there is a support group for survivors of Stars. *points out to you @jenwriter17 and @rochellaine )
Yes, Micah 6:9 is where my name comes from (and where Justice’s name comes from too, but I had it first).
I’m so glad you liked it!
@sleepwalkingmk Support group coming up! *hands you tissues* That horrible wonderful third part of Stars can really kill you, can’t it? Let’s all cry together, and philosophize on the realities of loving a book even when the author does the unthinkable and kills all your favorite characters.
@seekjustice @rochellaine
@sleepwalkingmk wow. that was a lot of fangirling.;) but I was the SAME WAY! *pulls box of tissues close* the feels, y’all, the feels.
ahem, we need a support group for the support group 😉 *tries not to go on about the character killing again* *fails* I MISS RAIN SOOO MUCH! SHE WAS MY PRECIOUS!
@seekjustice *throws away another tissue* Thank you…
And the significance of your name in your book is really cool. *coughs at mine* Mine is just random 😛
@rochellaine Thank you, I was just running out 🙁 Yay! Right?! How does that even work? I suppose keeping Chessy, Kai, Chessy’s dad, Quillon… and redeeming Justice. That helped. A lot. But still … my poor babies who died :'(
@jenwriter17 Hahahahaha. I’m *that* kind of fangirl, yeah 😛 I should probably give whoever I read for a warning that I rant. In all caps. And cry the whole time. 😉
*distant screaming* Aww! What if we all hug each other while crying? *screams with you* RAIN COME BACCCKKKKK!
@sleepwalkingmk I have always wondered about your tag. It is kind of…odd. That’s always been one of my favourite versions, because I think it, and verse 8, list things that we forget so often in our day. we don’t make sacrifices anymore, but we often think that good works and “piety” are the things God wants, when in reality he wants us to love him and to love others.
I love all caps, by the way. It makes me feel so special 😀
@seekjustice Haha, thank you 😀 The MK part is because I’m a missionary kid, and the sleepwalking part is just a random username I like 😀
Yeah, it’s a great verse! And I love how you communicate that in the book. JUST IN SUCH A PAINFUL WAY.. *breathes* I’m calm. I’m calm.
Haha! Okay, good 😀
Well, I guess the MK part, but yeah.
Thanks, I think 😀
I’ve written the prologue for the sequel, but haven’t started it yet. I think it’s going to be just as heartbreaking.
@seekjustice Haha. 😀
OH GOODNESS. May I please be on the beta list? Like I need my heart broken again 😛 But your writing is too good. Is this the retelling of A Tale of Two Cities?
You may 🙂 I’ll add you. Thanks, that really means a lot too mean and it’s really encouraging. 🙂 Yep, that’s it.
YAYYYYY! Thank you so much! 😀 Aww, you’re welcome! *dances around* *buys a boatload of tissue boxes*
@sleepwalkingmk Yes, we must support each other! We must be strong!
