let she who has not also had a horrifically embarrassing crush cast the first stone i guess

this woman needs to get. a grip. preferably ASAP!

omg i did NOT see that coming

reading sci-fi is an exercise in perseverance. my brain hurts

i am, at any given moment, reading at least 5 books

can’t believe it’s taken me this long to start this book i’m so excited

yall i am literally two pages into this book and keep having to restrain myself from highlighting every. single. sentence.

why yes, i am intimidated by this book (see also, R.F. Kuang’s work in general) and have been avoiding it like the plague. but i figure ill give it the ol’ college try!

this cannot be the same katherine center who wrote The Romcommers

for class

finished my first stephen king and now i might be on a frederik backman level new author kick. great news for me, horrible news for the other books i need to read (if ur in my book club reading this, i promise ill finish SIT)

i loooove a book about a precocious child

yall know i just hate to pin all my hopes and dreams and expectations on any book so early on but im only 15% through and i FEAR this already has majorrr comfort read potential

met charlie for approximately 30 sec and i already love him

yall this is goood

my second most anticipated read of the year; i’m actually so excited (but i think i need to wait until after finals r done like i am with GBBL)

unfortunately this fell on the sword of my dislike of the age gap trope, DNF but i’m sure it’s very good

reading this book in the same way i might force myself to watch a 3 min vid on IG- just to prove to myself my attention span is not completely shot to heck and i don’t need constant stimulation

realistically i cld binge this book tnt but im reading it w my book club so this is my accountability to not read ahead 🫠

guyssss😭😭😭i LOVE this book

i fear this will be the year of me reading FB’s entire backlog

four pages later and it got worse. ur actually kidding me

i had to put down the book and walk away. ur joking. will this woman not catch a break? ohmygosh

“war was full of goodbyes, and most of them never really happened; you were always too early or too late.” what a frickin line!!

shoutout jenna for being the only sane person in this book. she’s really holdin it down

a very large portion of the characters in this book are deeeply exasperating

y’all ever wanna throw a book across the room? no? just me? cool cool cool
