"soooo slow, maybe bc i can’t relate to being a boy in small town 1960s Illinois. 30 min of reading was about a group of boys throwing dirt clods at each other in the forest and pretending to die, rolling dramatically down a hill. it’s almost exactly It by stephen king—which i enjoyed—even though I have no experience being a boy in a small town in 1950s maine either" — Jun 14, 2026 11:57PM
