down to earth wisdom that can come off a little preachy sometimes. enjoying her thoughts but not necessarily her writing style so much, although hooks certainly has her moments!

ah, yes, my favorite metaphor for the tripartite soul: the hydra-lion-human hybrid. which bites itself.
snark aside, parts of this actually make a lot of sense 😰

some good ideas, some bad ideas, some weird ideas, and a whole lotta sass

this book is slow, philosophical, and kind. :)

NOOO, ANODOS!! NOT THE FEMME FATALE!!!! I KNOW SHES PRETTY BUT THAT DOESNT MEAN YOU HAVE TO FALL IN LOVE!!!!

absolutely haunting descriptions of fairyland here and we have already had a sorrowful goodbye AND a mystical karaoke session. sighhhhh. it’s hitting your honor, slowly but surely

main character is tapping into her spiritual energy 🤨 babygirl knock it off and focus on your COYOTE! who just got realllyyy sick btw but he finally pulled thru. haven’t had a good landscape description in a bit…. going thru withdrawal…… 😔

i’ve given it some thought and while i don’t want a coyote, i definitely wouldn’t mind some darn scenery around me for once 🤨 maybe the book will convince me to move to the middle of nowhere by the end… WHO KNOWS 😳

oh no….. wyoming be calling me name…..

HE MAKES IT ALL SO CLEAR AND BELIEVABLE AND I AM REMINDED THAT MUCH OF THE MYSTERY THAT REMAINS IS BEARABLE BECAUSE OF MY FELLOW PILGRIMS AND HE WHO I AM FOLLOWING!!!! :D

no more trauma thank youuuu. i feel like i go to south africa every time i read this tho. like it’s SOOOO well written, it feels so real!!
Also it’s crazy that yiddish sounds so much like german so i can half understand what they’re saying sometimes. anyway. very immersive very Big Kid Lit. not for the faint of heart but worth it so far

just met the enigmatic Mother and her brood and i am......... well let's just say she's not what i expected. except she is evil, so i got that right. but i don't think she needs that many genital organs???????? or daughters?

erm yea i'm ready for them to beat Ship or whatever and get the heck out of dodge. sick and tired of these translucent laser nerds and their space dust. HOWEVER, kim (the lemon man) is my FAVE.

going through "a hunger games fanfiction: akari and elwin" to point out notable things. first of all, the first page: "his face the portrait of a blank slate" is a CONFIRMED reference to one of my favorite songs, "Portrait of a Blank Slate" by lovejoy :-)

(the phrase "thus began my first adventure as a homeless person" is definitely interesting.)

no idea what's going on but i'm very scared and also rooting for Mystery Man

i’m not sure i’ve read a more scarring or violent chapter than i did just now. not sure if i want to throw up or cry or both. also not sure if i’m gonna continue reading or what. mannnn i need a second

ok he has mildly improved, which is a relief ☝️ he is now falling in Big Boy Love! and trying to Find A Job! Without Success! i sympathize greatly with this melodramatic guy. he is either miserable or ravingly happy all the time. relatable.

riveting, except… are all puberty age boys this concerning?! BACK OFFFF BROTHER 🙅‍♀️🤺

brain hertz yowch (SO GOOD)

enjoying this! tales from faerie, the perilous realm, but if they were all bugs incarnate. quirky premise but i am oddly enough getting behind it. joanne harris knows what she’s doing! so far we’re at a solid 4 stars. :)

women poets :)) finally haha

the stakes are staking. the family dynamics are still abysmal. grateful for normal brothers who Don’t Kill People in a Morally Gray Fashion.

stressed OUT

hilarious, morbid, dysfunctional family dynamics!

AUGHHHHH

wow. wow. wow. wow.
my heart is still ringing from the li-young lee interview. wow.
holy is the Lord. (!!!!!!!!)

please note that i didn't read ALL the garfields, only a majority.
also, i'm done now, and i am so sorry.

not me about to purchase the collected poems of one j.r.r. tolkien.... SOMEBODY STOP ME

poor frodo got shanked :( and beloved strider is as noble as usual. has already sworn to protect him like the great big softie he is. a pleasing amount of poetry recitations on the road ! :-)
