ofc this book was written by an asian

ofc this book was written by an asian

reading nonfiction for me is like going to the gym for the first time in ur life and trying to lift i feel STUPID

“it was spring & i could smell it // how did i not know those flowers were already memory, how i thought i could smell them, boarding the plane // why did i never consider how different spring could smell, feel, elsewhere?”

idk how this is even a contest

i have learned to put up w a lot of sally rooney’s syntax and punctuation choices in this but i am kinda drawing the line at “sore his eyes and hot he felt”

why am i always reading ivan’s chapters from margaret’s pov

how do these guys not all have severe liver dysfunction

i think everyone should’ve j sat down and talked but that’s j me

i can already tell these ppl r insane

why is this book so. quirky

too many names

it’s happening💀 goal is 5 books a day. highlights so far:
- “dogface” as an insult
- threat speech: “this will be my great oath: someday a yearning for achilles will come upon [the greeks], every man; then nothing will save you, for all your grief, when at the hands of hector dying men fall in their multitude; and you will rip the heart within you, raging that paid no honor to the best of the acheans.”

man. she needs help

reading too thick books simultaneously feels like a full time job. never liked reading multiple books at once. anyways these characters r crazy,.., compels me tho

this is truly written in grueling detail, it’s like watching a 4k slow mo empire state jenga building fall and i’m only on part 1
