so the entire book is just an exercise in torturing the protagonist, then?

girlie you did the ONE thing you really needed to have not done / I am haunted by sentences like “…when I thought it couldn’t get worse

people like Rowan?????

achingly beautiful/ don’t recommend reading in public / 16 had me in tears on subway

Ohhhh hell on earth no, that man is a snaaaake

why and how does she have me anxious about the frickin prenup like, obviously…. she is fine

I can’t believe how this book has colonized my attention? the privilege is astonishing (“My father was 40 million dollars in debt”), but the story itself—wealthy white man leaves wealthy ww and kids for another woman—is not that interesting… but yet??

k what is happening

kinda embarrassing to admit but every prediction I had re/plot thus far was dead wrong

ok I do get it

chronic overthinkers, turn back

have been dragging my feet on this b/c I am dreading the inevitable ending that we already know 😩

look I’m just going to say it: if you read this first, before TOG, you fckd up.

how did it take this long for the very obvious plot point to be revealed and also how is there another 100pgs to go

UGH, I’m invested now. But if she thinks it’s clever to say “lord of the night” who “in northern mountains” and think that is subtle… like we don’t know who the flip that’s referring to.

….still waiting to get the obsession w this series, but here we are (?)

how have I been sleeping on this for so long???

ok the whole “I won’t tell you this” and “I’m not going to say that here” bit of this has grown increasingly irritating… like, why tell me that you’re deliberately not telling us something? It’s souring me on the whole book.

the bummer about doing this in audiobook—any audiobook, really—is not being able to excessively underline sentences like: “To tell the truth was to pull the pin [of the grenade].”

ok honestly the thing that made me cry? the neighbors on Christmas

“I agreed that something needed to give. I disagreed that the something needed to be my work. And in turn, me. What would I have done to save my marriage? I would have abandoned myself. And I did, for a time. I would have done it for longer if he’d let me.”

WOOF 😮‍💨
