"My Dong-Ho, I was thirty when I had you."

don’t make me cry in this cafe omg

why did the author decide to make every character but will interesting except for the few moments he is with james

where are we who are these people what is happening

"I have decided that I humanly owe it to Renata to give her a little warning before I take legal procedures to have her shipped off to France."

…let’s take a few steps back, shall we?

uhhh, sure…?

"He is 60, a Wednesday. He is 68, a Saturday." oh, that’s… that’s not how it works

ah, yes, the typical "your father was awful to you, but he did some good things too (to others), so you will need to forgive him" wow, how insightful

‘And as for being frightened—you are upsetting yourself about nothing, for nothing will come of it.’

"But one is sorry.”
“Sorry for whom?”
“Sorry for life."

‘The table was not laid even. What did it mean?’

may i never regard people with such suspicion like this guy does 😭

‘I grew used to everything, or rather I voluntarily resigned myself to enduring it. But I had a means of escape that reconciled everything—that was to find refuge in “the sublime and the beautiful,” in dreams, of course. I was a terrible dreamer’

‘The long and the short of it is, gentlemen, that it is better to do nothing!’

‘Remember I spoke just now of vengeance. (I am sure you did not take it in.)’

did he just break the fourth to clock me

‘Possibly, I even regret, myself, that I have given so few slaps in the face during my life.’

so like.. what’s the plot?

uhm

sorry to my followers

kinda wish i had a kobo rn cuz the margins and the line distance are too big, and it’s affecting my reading experience (or so i like to think)

"don’t let them know. don’t let them see." ok elsa

yawn. great premise, interesting world-build, boring execution

pain. just pain. no rewards.

letty broke the world and if robin doesn’t break her before the last page then i will
