Status Updates From Dyret

“Part of my child brain hated her because she wasn’t young enough or even beautiful enough. Because she wasn’t strong enough. Or because she was too strong. Because she was so complex where my father was not. I hated my mother, in short, for being a woman.”

"He never talked about her. Just as Vic rarely talked about his wife. The wives of cheaters lived in private rooms with white lotions in thick jars and soft lighting."

Sinceramente, O QUE está acontecendo??? Mas curiosa para entender mais

I feel like nothing’s happened, yet I can’t stop reading. I like the way that little bits of Joan’s life come into the storytelling as if she were having actual thoughts. She’ll be thinking about fucking a man and then switch to olives in Italy. I feel like I’m literally in her mind, shifting around her memories.

"The times you are most willing to die are, ironically, the times you are having the most fun."

I am so freaking confused, and who the hell wrote this!? A 10 year old boy probably. The author keeps mentioning irrelevant places and characters and just won’t shut up about the most stupid things. Also why are the metaphors so UNPOETIC AND DUMB like who relates a phone to a duck when the story has nothing to do with a duck and call the police horny just for showing up. This is gonna be the hardest read.
