the nightclub scene is making me cringe so bad i had to put the book down but i promised myself i would finish it today so we must push on i guess😔

This book makes me feel so stupid for some reason...like what are ivan and selin even talking about in their emails?? And am i supposed to understand?? I cant tell if im just not very knowledgable or this book is super pretentious

carrie genuinely acts like she has no thoughts in her brain and i mean that in the most supportive non sexist way possible. like why do you believe hirstwood will marry you??? huh???? he IS married!!WITH KIDS!!! HE IS NOT SERIOUS ABOUT YOU💔

this book is so racist...like more racist than books from the 1890's...

This book is so boring already i hate english a level istg

i love how dicks perspective is literally just how terrible and whorish all the girls he's been with before are in comparison to nicole...if only she wasnt so crazy!!!!

the parallels between kennedy and desiree and stella and jude are KILLING me its just so crazy that no matter how far away each twin gets away from the other they will neverrr be able to escape one another

I just started book 2 and its actually getting interesting and THANK GOD THAT THERES NO MORE ROSEMARY PERSPECTIVE FOR NOW🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

reese and jude are actually everything🙏🙏

the alternating time periods with each chapter are really confusing or maybe im just dumb idk

Why is rosemary literally begging dick diver to do it with her😭😭😭im actually never reading a book written by a man ever again WHAT IS THISSSS

warning your homoerotic codependent teenage friendship WILL kill you

now wtf did i just read abt imelda and maurice...a male author writing that just doesnt feel right to me bc what woman grieving her husband would wish for that?? like idk what paul murray thinks widows think about after the death of their husbands but it's definitely not getting it on with his dad??

i cant believe people complain about sally rooney not including speech marks when grammar literally doesn't exist for a chunk of this book

cass saying she's ashamed to be dickie's daughter actually broke my heart WHY WOULD SHE SAY THATTTUHHH

This book is good so far but why is there a whole paragraph dedicated to describing how the sound Doctor Urbino's piss has changed throughout the years💔💔like i do not need to know that💔

'The guilt lies between each of my ribs, it has a tighter hold on me than she does, it grows all over my body like mould. If she leaves it up to me, we won't ever leave Crossmore. We will die here, shrivelled up by fear, separate from one another.'

"With other people...it feels like they're looking at me from a distance, and I'm only half there. But Cyrus's gaze pierces through me, rooting me here, in the cold thin air of the mountains and the soft spray of rain on my skin and the crevices in the stones underfoot."

'Each passing day seemed to bring Ivan further away from him and the life they used to have together, a life that was receding increasingly into the past, into the realm of childhood and adolescence. The realisation that his adulthood...would have to be lived without his father. That he was becoming a person his father would never know.'

"You believe there is something?" she asks. "I try to, yeah," Ivan answers. "Some kind of order in the universe, at least. I do feel that sometimes. Listening to certain music, or looking at art. Even playing chess, although that might sound weird. It's like the order is so deep, and it's so beautiful, I feel there must be something underneath it all. And at other times, i think it's just chaos and theres nothing."
