Jestem w mojej floptina era BUT THIS BOOK IS NOT

'“Because nobody else has what we have,” he said. “Because we belong to each other in a way that nobody else will ever understand, and I refuse to share that. I refuse to share you.”'

The incest is incesting

"I felt adrift in lies, as if there were a fathomless ocean of untruth surging beneath me and I was in a tiny boat with no sails."

I was gonna give them the benefit of the doubt when Josie said they kissed while breaking into a Frank Lloyd Wright house. But now they're watching a porno together in a seedy motel room.

The incest is definitely incesting 🙈🙈

"look at her I think about how she’ll grow up and meet some man who’ll eat out the middle of her like a sandwich and leave the crusts to rot on the plate and"

Jesus

'Then Ben said, “This isn’t the way the world is. People acting like this. You know that, don’t you?”

“It doesn’t matter,” I said. “Nothing does.”'

God this book is so depressing

'“I’m still not sure that physicists should be allowed to breed. Although you two seem to have turned out all right,” she said, looking at Jack.'

This sent me

You want to film YOUR SISTER??

'“The last student I had who showed so much promise was your mother. For all the good it did her.”

“Mary was one of your students?” I said.

Jack answered: “Absolutely. Flourished under his care like a hothouse flower, didn’t she, Daddy?”'

This is one of those types of books huh

'“That ratty green sweater he was wearing, it had ‘dumb white jazz fan’ written all over it.” He glanced up at me. “White boy jazz fans tend to be heartbreakingly sensitive. Maybe he’ll write you a love poem or two.”'

Damn Jack

How many incest novels can I read in one year? Let's find out!

Omg..... I can't stop reading it.

SOOO GOOD

I’ve started to become fearful of her and her brother’s relationship… and maybe just her brother in general?

Love it so far

Until he said, “You know, Josie, at some point you’re going to need to be able to be by yourself.”
I tried to smile. “I’ve got you, haven’t I?”
