Status Updates From We March At Midnight: A War...

ough the lake, the darkness enveloping him.

america claims they love their veterans then sets off fireworks

“we are the bludgeoned survivors, prostitutes of bravery”

“the dead are watching me”

“i despise this war and the boyish reveries of manhood that brought me here”

ray and elizabeth’s relationship is so wholesome

“their supreme patriotic gesture pisses me off, i don’t know why i’m mad at them. maybe it’s because i just vaporized someone and they seem to be cheering “atta boy you really killed the shit out of him!” quiet is all i want”

i really like this audiobook narrator

my favorite part is when ray gets introspective “i had to go to war, i wasn’t made to waste my time tangled up in the grass.” some people are truly just built like that. even after getting injured, he refused to go home and went back to his platoon. i understand it, and yet i also find it simultaneously stupid.

love the pacing of this book so far
