A House With Good Bones - Tumblr Posts

Most relatable part of any book ever for me (an archaeologist who has suffered through two theses) is this quote from A House With Good Bones by T Kingfisher:
I started laughing. I couldn’t help it. It was all so ridiculous. Gran Mae thought she could get me about my weight? I’d come out of academia. If she wanted to tear me apart, she should have commented on my doctoral thesis.
Like damn if I don't feel that. With how many hours I've spent in the lab despairing, thats the way you get to me. Fuck weight, don't you dare attack my child. But also, please never look at it ever and never mention it to me.
