+ i feel so seen in eileen. every letter she sends to alice is mind blowing and im always looking forward to her pov when im reading.

“What if I’m the one who can’t let myself be happy? Because I’m scared, if I prefer to wallow in self pity, or I don’t believe I deserve good things, or some other reason. Whenever something good happens to me I always find myself thinking: I wonder how long it will be until this turns out badly. And I almost want the worst to happen sooner, (…), so I don’t have to feel anxious about it anymore.”

messy relationships here we go

eileen’s letter to alice about religion >>>>

I’m certain I’m developing a love/hate relationship with this book… still, Sally Rooney at her best!!!!

“And Alice, I do feel like a failure, and in a way my life really is nothing, and very few people care what happens in it. It's so hard to see the point sometimes, when the things in life I think are meaningful turn out to mean nothing, and the people who are supposed to love me don't.” (page 42)

“I dread to imagine what kind of faces I was making, in my efforts to seem like the kind of person who regularly interacts with others. Even writing this email I'm feeling a little loose and dissociative. Rilke has a poem that ends: 'Who is now alone, will long remain so, / will wake, read, write long letters / and wander restlessly here and there / along the avenues, as the leaves are drifting!’” (page 17).
