This book is such a nice breath of fresh air after the last few non-fiction books. The author does a good job getting me super engaged with our titular taxidermist's life backstory.

At this point I'm just mad that the most emotionally impact aspect of this book for me was the epilogue, where the author recounts the first mycologists in America. Why didn't the author just write this whole memoir based around fungi???? 😭😭

Feeling such a disconnect while reading. I'm beginning to think that biology memoirs are just not for me. The idea they it's the author first, and the biology always comes second, just doesn't do it for me.

7 GODDAMN BOOKS AND THE MAJOR CONFLICT IS JUST RESOLVED OFFSCREEN?????? WITHOUT THE MAIN CHARACTER'S INVOLVEMENT???? What was even the point of this series 😭😭

Will forever blow my mind that honeybees can communicate angles to a food source without the concept of numbers. It's all just spatial based communication and it's not even communicated visually either???

This book seriously blind sided me because books 2-4 were so small scale and contained in their conflicts that I didn't feel any build up to the police force suddenly just overthrowing the government??? This book feels like a hydrogen bomb got thrown at my head 😭 The previous books were baby coughs compared to this.

The ending of this book caught me so off guard, I'm gonna be so sad for the next few days 🥲

WAS ALL THIS JUST BECAUSE HE WANTED AN INTERVIEW??????? 😭😭😭

I was not expecting how dark and psychological horror this was gonna get. I really like the challenge this book gives of reading between the lines because even though the POV character is uncovering things they aren't understanding the full implications.

This book got me all stressed out over what's real and not real lmao.
