You get about 300% more out of this book if you listen to the audiobook and you will never hear me say that sh again

A slow but good crawl through this book. Slowmaxxing.

“Dead or alive who would you have dinner with” and my answer has been the same for over a decade with. This man. And he continued to prove it every chapter

I never listen to audiobooks but I’m in the most pain I’ve ever been in and Anthony Bourdain’s voice is the only thing keeping me grounded to this earth right now

Off Campus hiatus over. Back to the crazy!

so incredibly 2015

this is goofy as hell but i needed to take a quick intermission from EoE. also i love that they set her up with a nickname bc I need him calling her by her real name to be the payoff!! my brand!!

I promise i’ve been reading i’m also just the busiest i’ve ever been in my life

what do you MEAN there’s no sequel
release date yet. what

Okay I understand the hype now……

I fear the older I get the more I relate to Montag. I too feel like the world around me is getting more and more stupid and complacent

“I often wonder if God recognizes His own son the way we’ve dressed him up, or is it dressed him down? H e’s a regular peppermint stick now, all sugar – crystal and saccharine when he isn’t making veiled references to certain commercial products that every worshiper ‘absolutely’ needs.”
Man how tf did Bradbury know….. how far we’ve fallen.

“He was not happy. He was not happy. He said the words to himself. He recognized this as the true state of affairs. he wore his happiness like a mask and the girl has run off across the lawn with the mask and there was no way of going to knock on her door and ask for it back.”

so that’s why i used to listen to The Stranger w this book…..:

Force bond ahh sht. awesome.

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE (even when the world sucks and it’s hard to live in the state of it, it’s nice to know that I get to start my year with such a GOOD book. makes it all better.)

The choices this book makes to convey the nature and lives of any person in the direct surrounding area of our main characters is so well thought out and insanely smart. Literally blown away by this story

50% through and an infinite amount of things to say. I have literally never read a book like this before. a love letter to storytelling and family and the fate we are given and never chose, but always make beautiful. Insane. Reads like i’m watching a movie. I have not shut up about this book to literally everyone I know.

This book is taking me a little longer to read but please note it’s because this is a beautiful behemoth of a book that bids you to constantly imagine the world around these characters and how it moves. and it’s absolutely incredible

DAMNNNNNNNN

Was hoping to finish this before end of the year but i’m gonna need to take my time with this bad boy. it is spectacular and I don’t think i’ve scratched the surface of what the book actually is yet.

like 5 pages into this book and i’m already floored by the writing

damn.

left my kindle at work :(((( wanna read so bad aughhhh

DEAR GOD.

They are EVERYTHING to me
