...For this was on Saint Valentine’s Day,
When ev’ry fowl cometh to choose her mate...

- Chaucer, "Parlement of Foules"

My copy of vol. 2 of the official TGCF translation arrived a day ahead of schedule – a lovely Valentine's Day surprise! <3



It's hard to believe, but I think it might be even prettier than vol. 1!

When I started reading TGCF, I thought of myself as someone who didn't care much about romance narratives; by the time I finished it, I was crying about how much Hualian love each other. So it's basically my ideal book to re-read on Valentine's Day.

I'm single, so painting hearts on my nails last night and eating some chocolate while reading tropey romantic fic today are the only things I had planned this year. What about you? Anything special?
