Ok I know there’s been drama, but the triad relationship is the least interesting part of this book

“Have you ever had all your dreams come true and then, you hate it? Or maybe you don’t hate it, but you’ve previously fumbled so many other parts of your life—cumulative, stacking—that when the dream is ready for you, you are not ready for it? &as you freeze, you watch the dream slide away, confirming your meanest internal monologues about how you suck and never deserved anything good in the first place?”

😳

This is what I’ve been seeking. Stuck in traffic an extra hour and I didn’t even care.

This accent is too thick for my audio processing. Going to have to wait until I can get a physical copy.

Today I learned that Wes Craven did porn in the 70s under the name "Abe Snake."

TIL Wes Craven did porn in the '70s under the name "Abe Snake"

Important

Wait, so—she takes a selfie with a dead body at work, then gives the picture to the group to prove she’s a killer, BUT ALSO she’s in deep disguise every time they see her?

Oh. Yeah, ok.

Ok we’ve seen the video! I suspect we’re headed somewhere more sad than scary.

Addy/Keely… I can’t say I saw it coming, but yes. Absolutely.

Ok this comedy colleague having a whirlwind romance with a much hotter pop star is 100% Pete Davidson right?

DNF.

As reviews have said, the writing is extremely clumsy. Plus Helen’s backstory is a variation on a book both Liane Moriarty and J. Courtney Sullivan have already written better.

So this was never going to be more than a 2.5/5, but I planned to finish it for the present story about murder in a retirement community.

Until the weird, third-person anti-abortion sermon at 50%.

I’ve got other thrillers, thanks.

Always fun when an audiobook you've been dying to start anyway turns out to be read by someone you had a crush on as a kid.

Reaching an impasse with this one. I vastly enjoyed Sittenfeld's other four books, couldn't put them down really, but I'm not an Austenite. Uber-tired of P&P, in particular. Library book's about to be due for the third time, and this go-round I won't be on the waitlist. Someday?

"My name is Ishmael. But don't call me that." Classic literature jokesssss

It's finally my turn with the library's copy! The waiting list behind me is thirty people long. Rock on, Nola.

Shukert can be abrasive, but she is so, so clever. For insulting Katharine McPhee, she "took a lot of shit -- or should I say, McPheces." Dead. I am dead.

I started the audiobook while driving to work yesterday. I was breathless within minutes, and it hasn't stopped.

THIS IS SO BADASS SO FAR, Y'ALL.
