"In a stealth move, I snagged both the audiobook and the ebook on Hoopla (which has usually reached my library's daily limit of borrows by 6:30 AM!).
This is a dual experiment in both comprehensible input and skuba reading." — Aug 04, 2026 05:55PM

“His geekiness was that bizarre failure to care about the one thing that everybody agreed really mattered: kudos, while his coolness came from the same source, because not caring about kudos—not obsessing about it, not chasing it down wherever it might be found, not constantly measuring one’s own coolness against that of one’s peers—was in itself kind of cool.”

“Il rapporto tra l'imperfetto e il passato prossimo è un sistema, complesso e preciso, per rendere puú tangibile, piú vivido, il tempo già trascorso. Un modo di raccontare qualcosa di astratto, di percepire qualcosa che non c'è.
Inutile dire che questo blocco mi fa sentire, appunto, molto imperfetta. Per quanto frustrante, mi sembra un destino. Mi identifico con l'imperfetto, perché un senso d'imperfezione ha segnato la mia vita. Sto provando da sempre a migliorarmi, a correggermi, perché mi sono sempre sentita una persona difettosa.”
