Nabokov you sneaky boy you are so good at writing

I read this almost a year ago and I’ve thought about it at least once a week so I’m going to read it again 🫠

Hopefully I can finish this before the big screen showing 🤞

Even better the second time oml

My kindle loan expired 💀

oops im re-reading her again

I feel like a terrible person this book is not it

Getting paid to read is s-tier employment

I forgot how my girl Agustina is able to write horror like my GOD she does it so well.

Also forgot to mention this book gave me chills so hard I spilled water all over the special edition copy I got

This book is so chaotic but I’m absolutely loving it

Reading chapter 27 in public was a bad idea. I feel like I’m constantly having to put this book down to remind myself Humbert is unreliable af and that this is fiction

I didn’t know I’d get a French lesson reading this book oml. Also disgusting how beautifully the author writes

my march goal is to read dracula, crime and punishment, and one more classic :) so recs would be amazing

The way that Anatema’s dialogue is written reminds me of the way Gabriel speaks in the Mandela Catalogue and I can’t elaborate more than that, so far amazing

I was hoping for a more true crime book, but this is comparing the story of Lolita and Nabokov’s very insane work to the real case of Sally Horner. It’s interesting but not what I was expecting

ugh it’s so fantastic
