this is probably the most acerbic acidic book i've ever read everyone in this literally hates each other i understand like 60% of what's going on at every given time i love it here so much. more hateful & jaded & lowkey unlikeable transfeminine protagonists pls... the monster self-referral is a bit much tho like sure u a brick but it's not the end of the world.

really enjoying this so far !! the story i'm about to finish is probably my favourite; i have so much compassion for its mc. the decision not to use quotation marks might've been a dealbreaker for some people, but i don't mind it especially; the subject matter intrigues me more than enough.

pausing for the moment because this is *also* doing nothing for me. i find the prose too disjointed; i don't see anything of that originality everyone loves to rave about

i have, of course, encountered sentences that ring true & highlighted them, but outside of that this is doing nothing for me

i love this so so much u don't understand

very interesting & slightly incomprehensible so far. skipped the introduction and the dedication (half-way) which take up a sizable chunk of the beginning. the writing is very symmetrically paradoxical and i might have 2 read this slower to figure that out. not a very big fan of the narrator who seems chauvinist. love the cover of my edition

this has been bizarre yet boring. can't understand the writing; it's certainly novel, but at what cost ? i find jeanette's sophisticated references amusingly endearing and the confusion it inspires in those around her hilarious though, so it does have it moments. if it doesn't get any better soon i'll prob dnf

i've always wanted to read someone's journals and this video i saw recently finally convinced me to give those of anais nin a try— does anyone have a particular volume they'd like to recommend? any journals in general

seven deaths was so good can't wait to see where this'll go !!!!!

finding this a bit dull tbh can't be wait to be done with it !! the preoccupation with (sun) light is very satisfying for a luminary such as myself #lightlover4life

i'm coming back y'all :-)

loving this so far 🫶🏿🫶🏿

🤭🤭🤭

almost painfully relatable dynamic between obstinate father/parent figure and overly timid child

this is very well-done

waiting for pierce to catch up 🫶🏿🫶🏿

FINGERS IN HIS MOUTH ??????

really enjoying this ! thoughts to come

buddy read with the lovely pierce and i have to say i am eating this UPPPP omg <333 it's making me reconsider whether i even enjoy litfic tbh.... it's been quite a while since i read a romance novel and i wonder if i've been starving myself for intellectual prestige

this strongly reminds me of helen oyeyemi's the icarus girl, the mc & sheri meet and interact in a strikingly similar way to the two main girls of book, down to the abiku mythology featured in mc's story. also the writing's sharpness keeps pleasantly surprising me and making me laugh out loud

thoroughly intriguing, although somewhat boring

wanted to finish this tonight but it was far too... sleep-inducing let's say

okay i'm actually getting bored of this tbh. like so much has happened and we're js 31% in ?? also the fashion isn't evolving as i know it should and given the fact that it's such a ginormous plot point it's honestly very disappointing

idu the hate this is getting it's literally transcendent

is this pay gorn 😟😟

exquisite. depicts really well the tender heartbreak of a parent simply not believing in their child

good but nothing particularly stands out

*fiancé sry

genuinely lovely so far but wdym her cousin is getting married at SEVENTEEN AND HER HUSBAND IS TWENTY ????????
