"Being the world's first introverted pervert prude" girl get a twitter account you're not special

"She could love these people, she thinks sometimes"
Syenite I don't mean to alarm you but there is a nuke rapidly approaching your location

"I will tear the whole world apart if they ever hurt I'd again"
'But we would still be hurt' she thinks.

Everything will be so fine I'm sure... (the inciting incident of the book is him literally tearing the world apart)

Innon is too nice this whole village is gonna explode or something isn't it

Yk what this book DID need syen and baster both lusting after a big bisexual man why the hell not

The fun thing about this book is that I truly never have any idea where the actual plot is going and all I can do is guess character beats and also I have absolutely no idea how there's 2 more books. Like what is the plot for it to be a whole trilogy. I do not know. But I REALLY need to find out

My theory is SO BACK actually. Also wow Schaffa you continue to be an absolutely uncomfortable mystery to me... why have we not heard of him in the other POV.......

My theory falls apart even more... beginning to think I truly was just a puppet on N. K. Jemisin's strings.... being lead exactly where she wanted me... gah.... is free will even real... do we have any power over where we end up in life..... am I just a cave dweller, looking upon shadows cast by her words, convinced that this simulacrum of reality is all there is to life....? Much to ponder

#realizing that there are very valid counter arguments to my theory but I refuse to give up on it until I have to.....

Someone give Hoa an Ipad....

"Previous yous have been stronger and colder, or warmer and weaker"
By which we mean Syenite and Damaya respectively, right? RIGHT? This HAS to be the point..... I'm not crazy.... but maybe that's also what she WANTS me to think and then it's gonna be something else entirely.... gah... much to ponder

Well that's fucked up

#theory time what if all 3 perspectives are actually just Essun at different points in her life.... thinking..... because Damaya is a little girl, and Syenite is a young woman, and Essun is a long grown adult with a past we don't really know.... THINKING... (Either this is it or it's like fully the OPPOSITE of the truth. I'll see.)

"Stupid, stupid woman. Death was always here. Death is you."
Essun I'm sure we can find you an amazing mental health professional

Ok I think I'm getting used to the experience...

5 pages in I've had to use 5 times as much brain power as it took to read heroes of Olympus #speakingtruths

The book that keeps on giving, even if I can't tell what it's trying to hand me

Coming back to this series and remembering oh my god EVERYBODY needs to die right now. Whole cast insufferable

Wow! I'm so [ ] to be back!! Chock Full of emotion!! Which one?? Only time will tell!!

There's still SO many things happening and the book STILL isn't close to over oh my god

Maybe it's because I've been reading slow books lately but this pacing is CRAZY

Just the concept of naming the dilf character McLean.... right... right....

Piper's POVs are lowkey cracking me up bc why is it all "oh my dream.... oh they're all gonna hate me....." and "oh my dad is so rich and hot ugh...." like girl whatever..... like yeah sure....

I just watched a 3 hour video on Gaylors the name Big Sur is a trigger phrase at this point wow

"If only they knew about my dream..........."
Girl this is your own inner monologue stop vagueposting

Not the man named Butch with a rainbow tattoo... either that's a transmasc lesbian or someone said your culture is my costume.....

Cyrus you're so questionable I like that about you

"[...] I can hear him through the gurgling, the dying, and it really does make sense for that second, gurgling, the horse and the cloak and the hot flashlight, I know he's smiling and maybe I am too [...]"

These never-ending sentences are so yummy "thank you arash chapters" we all shout in unison

Arash, my guy, I haven't counted how many times you've thought about Mira from the market's breasts the past four pages but it was definitely 5 times too many...

"I pulled and she climbed out and lay down on the bentgrass, the mud-dirt, gasping, soaking wet, laughing, panting like an idiot fish, idiot girl."

Whatever rating I end up giving this book it was worth it for this chapter alone oh my god I am feeling so many things
