man this is SO GOOD i'll talk about it properly when I have the book in front of me and the loudest bitch in the world isn't talking about her boyfriend behind me in the dining hall, but the writing style is so modern I started it kinda ehhhh but then as I kept reading, I liked it more and more.
number one question tho is WHERE TF DOES SHAWNA GO?? WHY DO THEY BREAK UP???

The Moon of Letting Go: and Other Stories

crying and throwing up. I've annotated Jung's entire section like three separate times and I'm finally reading Sekky's. I'm only getting to reading it now because it wasn't assigned reading for my ENG111 class and fankly, I'm lazy. I know nothing can top reading a homoerotic fight scene in terms of like, instant gratification (and I'm right), but I'm still very excited to read it.
but like,, damb. this eight yr old.

I had to change this one to "percentage done" cuz the page numbers were so off ugh.
but yeah I haven't read this for YEARS and the one I did read in my elementary school library could potentially have been abridged so this is very sexy and exciting. big fan of the jekyll and hyde thing raskolikov has going on. wishing sonia and dunya the best as the both deserve it. loved the horse-whipping dream? neitzsche moment ig

man. nothing depresses me like reading about failed suicide attempts. like babe I Get It and I'm Sorry.
I always inadvertently root for them to accomplish their suicides. they're so tired, life is so long, and they're trying so hard to die. to have to keep living when they don't want to is so demoralizing. I always feel terrible.
anyway yeah I'm really vibing with this xoxo

man i Get It. the way esther moved away for the first time in her life and just feels ill and dissatisfied but doesn't know what to do besides carrying on with her perfectly-okay-but-miserable little life? yeah girlie i feel you.
anyway this style of writing is very modern for me but i'm enjoying it so far!

idek why my man was surprised the date went that wrong. she's literally so much hotter than him. also personally if a ghoul decided she was going to literally eat me I feel like,,, at a certain point you just have to ??? accept that???? he's being very prissy about this whole thing I must say. plus he only lost ONE eye. that's only a 50% decrease in eyes. most people seem to lose both so count ur blessings kaneki

Hey idk Noburu but if I found a peep hole to my mothers room I would simply push some furniture against it and ignore it??? Weird ass motherfucker. Also if a fellow thirteen year old told me to kill a cat so he could dissect it I would simply say No??? The dissected cat shouldn’t be linked with sex in your mind, Noburu. You’re 13! Sort yourself out. Fusako and Ryuji seem nice tho so props to them

I am not enjoying very much why is Emily Carr so obsessed w her self insert character instead of focussing,,, idk,,,,, the art that she supposedly went there to study ? Also her romanticized image of indigenous people kinda depersonalizes them and the whole thing with that feels icky. I don’t think this is public (so I speak to Genevieve) but I’m reading this for a class and not having fun. Thanks xx
