I’m only reading this out of pure hatred now

I know I’m sorry. She just incites a morbid curiosity I’ve never once felt before

This is literally brilliant

Was high off my ass yesterday when I started this and was convinced Stephen King is the best writer to ever exist. Next day still reading this, and that might just hold true

No I fr can’t do this rn…. is this story straight up law & order plot summary for 60 long pages

My bf started reading Utopia Avenue I am literally so nervous… if he doesn’t like it I break up with him.

Am I reading this book or is this book reading me

Brilliant news folks. I have emerged from my squalor. As you can see, I’ve picked up a book! And I’m reading it! Everyone be proud of me. I’ve been in a slump for much too long.

I’ve been stuck on this page for so long guys… it is so painfully confusing to me and reading it feels like homework. Might dnf😭

Plowing through these pages so fast but now… I have to take a breather.

I was just thinking about how this reminds me of In the Heights and then they name dropped Lin Manuel Miranda I don’t think this is a coincidence

Guys quick q how heavily STEM centered is The Love Hypothesis? I read books for escapism and I’m a woman in STEM. Will it let me escape? Or is it like a lot. I don’t want to think about the ochem class I’m failing.

Tessa Thompson is gonna be the MC for the film adaption of Luster by Raven Leilani. I can’t handle the 5 books that I’m reading right now, but I’m eyeing Luster on my shelf. I want to start it immediately. I LUV TESSA THOMPSON.

I’m literally reading 5 books rn but I couldn’t resist. If I don’t become Cardan’s whore by the end of this I’m blaming you all.

I have no fucking clue what’s going on but I like the vibes

I know I said I didn’t like Sally Rooney but I’ve changed my mind. I’m already crying reading this. I had to annotate. This book is exactly what I need rn.

I frickin love this book already dude. My life is being absolutely engorged by Dune.

Everytime I try to read this I stop after 2 pages. I really don’t like the writing style. Thinking I gotta dnf this one.

This book is so mf heavy my fingers are breaking and I gotta hold it open with my toes 😕

Facebook Status Update: In Tears.
This book has no business to be absolutely emotionally destroying me right now.

I refuse to finish this book. I was gonna finish this book tonight, but it would take too much of a toll on me. I don’t want to leave these characters. It will be too painful.

PARISA KISS ME CHALLENGE. PARISAAAAA. AHHHHH.

I adore this book so far. I am also a Callum apologist. I will not be arguing on this topic.

Very much sad that this fictional 60s band isn’t real. I’ve already cried about this today.

Literally 2nd update on this book: just now actually read the blurb on the author and this mf is the artist JAPANESE BREAKFAST??? I literally have two of her songs saved I’m in love with her. I LOVE HER.

This shit is so fucking good. FUCK. Yo I don’t have any words right now I’m in love bitches! Is this what it’s like to be in love?

Only 50 pages in and it’s like Arafat took all my thoughts that I thought were completely original and wrote it down here. WEIRD. It’s like a mirror.

Ms. Moshfegh has me wrapped around her finger. So far my fav stories are “Mr. Wu” and “The Beach Boy.” She just gets me.

Yes, I have started reading another book. My brain is only happy when it is overstimulated.

As a wise woman once said (actually idk if she’s wise, I think she’s actually homophobic? Who’s to say. I don’t keep up with her), “Be who you are! For your pride!”
