OK, so I was really excited for this book when I heard the premise of it and thought it was gonna be really good but now starting it, the voice actor is really annoying and I kind of really dislike the immature nature of the narrator and also the book just kind of feels like the author has an inherent distaste for high school sports players in like the popular group. It just feels very cliché right now

This book is SO GOOD and exciting! I’m actually obsessed with it! Lots more Dan Brown books in my future
Right now I’m trying to research this “feeling the future” article and random word recall experiment though bc the way that it is being described right now just sounds like they are saying/ignoring that people recall words they have seen before easier than new words … idk I’m prob misunderstanding

“No one has been born or bitten with purple eyes before”
I feel like it’s 2020 and I’m watching one of those tiktoks where when you turn 16 you get a color mark on your face and the main character has some mystery color on their cheek and they’re like oh no I have to cover this up so no one knows I’m different! And then it turns out they’re “the lost princess”

Is… is this pride and prejudice?

“I’m trying so hard to look away, to forget, to figure out how to erase what just happened. But all I can think is that life is like a broken tire swing, an unborn child, a fistful of wishbones. It’s all possibility and potential. Wrong and right steps towards a future we’re not even guaranteed. And I, I am so wrong.” - girl what the FUCK are you even talking about??????

“Sometimes I wonder about glue. No one ever stops to ask glue how it’s holding up. If it’s tired of sticking things together or worried about falling apart or wondering how it will pay its bills next week.” GIVE ME A FUCKING BREAK

Had to stop for a while bc my hold from the library was up but starting back up again on 6/24!

My library hold lapsed on 5/29 :( I think I was about 41% through

Right now my current guess is that Ben isn’t actually dead he’s in hiding after the dad tried to kill him but Ben was able to kill him instead and now he’s posing as the dad by sending the emails and what not cause he’s usually out of town or whatever

If I have to hear “Shannon like the river” one more time I’m gonna DNF this book I’m not joking
