this 10 yr old thinks more critically about art than most adults I’ve met, tbh.

“To philosophize is lonely, but to philosophize is also to learn to walk past some emotions, including that momentary loneliness and say: these are but pebbles that should not and will not stop me.” My annotating pen? Out of ink!

nobody has been talking about this book enough???? absolute masterpiece holy shit

now why am I tearing up over man literature

Steinbeck, I am fully aware of your game and still find myself in awe of it

“Grampa fought and argued, told dirty stories. His was a cantankerous, complaining, mischievous laughing face with bright little eyes as evil as a frantic child’s eyes.” Ok, Johnny Knoxville.

Something about the real enemy all along being some fuck-ass incel trying to bring his favorite waifu to life makes me so happy

There are titans trying to break down the city walls, a shady government covering it up and you’re saying this ISN’T the island of Paradis?? SURE

“I used to have a type. Gentle guys who underlined their favorite prose passages in books we buddy read, and who were secure enough in their masculinity to borrow my moisturizer when they spent the night.” Ali really said I HATE evolved men!!! Bring back the Neanderthals!!!

not the honeymoon at Cedar Point 😭😭

You’re sitting there and you’re telling me this isn’t just genderbent Supernatural fanfic…………

one thing about Stephen King is this man will find ANY excuse to talk about breasts

the fact that I had to actually Google “how many Stephen King self-references in 11/22/63” speaks MULTITUDES

Pennywise what are YOU doing here????

This man took one sip of 60s root beer and said fuck it, I can stop the JFK assassination

“Simply let go and trust Self 2” and my Self 1 just tried to commit aggravated assault on Self 2

WHEN WILL THEY FUCK IN THE CAR

“My vices are the children of a forced solitude that I abhor; and my virtues will necessarily arise when I live in communion with a equal.” Not Frankenstein and his monster both living the “a woman will make me a better person” delusion

how are they both the overcommunication AND the miscommunication final bosses???? MAKE IT MAKE SENSE OLIVIE

Not the knockoff Heart Rate Challenge!!!

“Samuel rode lightly on top of a book and he balanced happily among the ideas the way a man rides white rapids in a canoe. But Tom got into a book, crawled and groveled between the covers, tunneled like a mole among the thoughts, and came up with the book all over his face and hands.” This is how I feel reading this fucking book, Steinbeck!!!!!

“When I said Cathy was a monster it seemed to me that it was so. Now I have bent close with a glass over the small print of her and reread the footnotes, and I wonder if it was true.” Not to devalue your attempts at feminism Steinbeck, but I fear she’s literally the devil from THE BIBLE.

Is this my favorite book of all time??????????

East of Eden vs Supernatural for best Cain & Abel retelling

“I could win this” me every fucking chapter

FERGALICIOUS DEFINITION MAKE THEM BOYS GO LOCO

it’s giving crack cocaine the way I can’t stop reading this

the way this book has a bigger character glossary than a Brandon Sanderson is absolutely frying me 💀💀💀💀

“and there’s no battle cry this time, no lies of elation, of glory, of grandeur, of nobility, of triumph, of dignity, of honor, of sublimity, of rapture, of ascendence of immortality which leaves only the lie and the lie goes like this - you deal this one card honestly, this one single card cleanly off the top of the deck and maybe all the bad deals of the past will be pardoned.” I need this book to win AWARDS!

you know when you start a book and you’re immediately like yeah…I’m going to need to read everything they’ve ever written….
