went to olin with a plan to do a relaxing amount of reading. finished what i need for class! amazing

i have to finish this book in two days AND i just got spoiled

i can’t say i 100% know what’s happening

this one might be a push to get done. but i started it at a frisbee tournament somehow. good omen

ok fine maybe this english class isn’t so horrible

it’s a slow read, can you tell?

walking around w this makes me feel like a douche

i’ve reached that point… can’t put it down. no turning back.

imagine one hundred years of solitude taking place in your hometown!! in your neighborhood! it’s perfect

sometimes i’m reading a book and it upsets me that i’ll never know what some character is thinking in a certain moment. this book makes sure to take care of that itch

the slow burn is real… but what can i expect w two repressed irish boys

the intro to my ithaca summer. so far, it’s gorgeous

picked up from jenna’s guest bedroom in seattle. reading her high school annotations as i read the book. it’s glorious

“sucks for you” “quaking in their boots” “having a moment” suzanne collins does this take place in gen z era or something

i very quickly encountered the log man scene

yes i am visualizing ferdinand as sam tucker-smith. yes i am waiting for the log man scene.

finally, some progress.
somehow this is a grade A beach read

ah, exit pursued by a bear

am i waiting for exit pursued by a bear? i mean. yeah. but this one has been fun and the facts/history behind it is excellent to learn
