This book is making me uncomfy….

“Have you ever had friends that you love so much you’re constantly scared they don’t— or couldn’t possibly— love you as much in return? But you don’t want to be the over enthusiastic creeper friend who crowds their space, so you’re hyperaware of being super cool and chill hanging out with them even though inside your screaming with excitement ever time you get the chance?” Felt this in my bones!

I have a hopeful feeling that my desire for immersing myself into some lesbian content will be satisfied (:

“Of course, if the punishment did fit the crime, white people would probably have the equivalent of life imprisonment!” Straight facts gosh!!

I would never have bet reading a bible quote being written about in relation to white privilege, but I guess there is a first for everything?!

The subject matters that this book explores is undeniably crucial, the stylistic choice of how it’s been written so far is off putting, unfortunately! I fear I’m too much of a comprehensible sentence snob!

Shit has really turned ballistic quite fast, gosh! The botanical horror is honestly quite satisfying to read about in an odd way?

The writing in this book is, undoubtedly, visceral and so immersive! Really enjoying that aspect of the book so far! (:

“Maybe once you’re out of my life I’ll just jerk off to budgeting plans.” 🤔 🤨 okay mister… if you say so?

Hehe (:

To quickly illustrate how this book is panning out for me so far, let’s just say that the next chapter’s title that I am currently at is titled, “You simp.”☺️

This book is really emphasizing how unreliable the male gaze is, both for women and men’s sake! I appreciate getting this unreliable narration style of the book, I’m just unsure how I feel about the overall composition of it overall?

“What are you doing here, honey? You’re not even old enough to know how bad life gets.”
“Obviously, doctor, you’ve never been a thirteen year old girl.” 🥲

Time to reread! (:

Shit began hitting the fan rather quickly now!

So far, this book feels like it is meant to be summarized by the quote, “to be known is to be loved,” in both the endearing and detrimental ways in which this quote could connate for many different characters live!💜

Slowly marching my way through this love letter to nature in the form of a book book (;

Time to reread this book after over 3 years! (:

The yearning in this book has me hooked so far! (:

Alright?!?! Apparently female vampires can also be cannibals for more than just blood?!? The more you know….

I’m going to put this back on my want to read list because I truly think I will gain so much from this novel if I pick it up again at a time where my brain isn’t fried and I can contextualize and analyze this book more adequately!

A book my friend really loved, so naturally I’m going to read it (;

“You took away all the other wanting from me.” I’m sorry?!? IM SORRY?!? 🥺

!!!

This book is so deranged, but in a really funny and realistic way I feel?

I’ve heard very fantastic praise about this book, let’s hope I find it engaging enough to finish😂🤞

“Wait.. is this fucking play about us?” Us = me😂

I’m so excited ((:
