This book is so good; I'm obsessed. Levin's the best.

"It's okay to want to be okay."

This audiobook reader nails the character voices. I'm loving this so much so far!

Good old Shirley Jackson. No one can write like her.

I'm... not really seeing why people love Sinclair so much. I'm not a huge fan of his analysis of these amazing chapters from John. It feels like he reads too much into certain aspects of the text while missing some of the more obvious points that feel worth talking about.

Anyways, maybe it'll get better as it goes on. *shrugs*

Man, this book is so good. DeYoung is so clear and easy to follow.

I love this book so much :)

This is not at all what I expected.
In "Anne of Green Gables", L.M. Montgomery seems in love with the world and everyone in it... in this book, everything is ugly and everyone is a jerk. (Our main character is quickly becoming one of the biggest jerks of them all).
Hopefully, it gets better.

Finished part one!

On my reading list for my Massachusetts vacation next week I've got Lovecraft, Shirley Jackson, Edgar Allen Poe, and Steven King. I'm really tapping into those "New England Dread" vibes :)

Reading this aloud to my little sister. It's just as good as the first time through so far :)

Reading aloud to my little brother. This book is SO summery :)

Prepping for my New England trip next week :)

I love this cover. The book's pretty interesting too.

Onto my next Tolstoy book. His writing on this one so far is so gorgeous 😍

Tolstoy. Tell me it's not true. 😭😭
