i think this is gonna be fun

i’ve read about 3049201 books with this exact same plot and i’m here for it again

this is a lot…19 year old me who loved some shock factor would be digging this big time

i’m having so much fun

ok. i’m doing it.

OH MY GOD!??!!!

omg??!

ok i was worried it wasn’t gonna be unhinged enough for me but she’s finally eating people’s eyeballs so we’re all good

ok i actually didn’t expect that twist. i was close tho!

…i don’t think im gonna enjoy listening to this…

i feel like they’ve barely spoken for this late in the book

this is a fine book but i’m not really vibing with the fact that we have to read it in 4th grade :/

eek i think im back to disliking thrillers

i’m getting bored

uhhh i feel like this doesn’t have to be this long tf

oh nope would recommend skipping what’s happening at 81% i’m not sure where this all came from. no thank you.

ughhhh this is so bad i’m so upset. 2.5x speed !!!

ughhhh i don’t want to finish this but im listening to it and have put in too much time and im just gonna finish at 2.5x speed 😡

grumpy titular character is trashing “infinite jest” so it’s 5 stars so far

hated fourth wing. not at all excited about this. also not sure why i’ve decided on an 895 page book that i already dislike when im like 8 books behind my reading goal. ✨

uhhh i wish this twist came sooner !!!!

“…i have no reason to cry. if i had to explain to a passerby why im crying, what could i possibly tell them? that im devastated because my husband thinks im a clementine? that im falling to pieces because he ordered lasagna? that im in tears because he left a substantial tip?“

“is it bizarre to feel tenderness toward my husband’s dandruff? i imagine that love is fed by such traces left in a piece of clothing or on a sheet, and that all the lovers of the world are affected by them.”

i read this on recommendation from my freshman year creative writing professor (one of the ones who told me not to be a teacher - to just be a copy edition or something and write. oops. maybe he was onto something…) and even 30 pages in, re-reading it from the perspective i have now is so so different. i am excited and already heartbroken.
