Reading this on my New York trip is genuinely life changing

Spinning back to this gem

Spinning back to this gem

Just read the most intensely intimate & saddening gay sex sequence of (probably) all time & started grinning out of shock to prevent myself from crying.

Then I had to explain the situation to Nicole because she asked me what was so funny.

I shall finish this today

Devastation, actually

That stretch from 153-165…. genuinely & brilliantly insane literature oh my goodness

Just couldn’t put it down. WOW

Bro why do I read the saddest stuff at work

I will finish this by Friday

Will finish this by latest tomorrow

LANGUAGE IS SO IMPORTANT

I was supposed to go to the gym after two chapters but I genuinely cannot put this down. The Ryan Gosling casting as Ryland Grace makes so much sense the more & more I read. Real tears in my eyes at the end of the latest chapter I read, wow.

On a poetry bender as of late

Big ahhhhh book

Wow. Really liking this so far

Just crushed 170 pages sitting in front of Johnny’s grave

I like in other writers when he cooks his peers

He’s cooking omfg

Book 4 for January woohoo

Here are some favourite thus far

Unit 2: non sequitur, Apollonian

Unit 3: polyglot, ad hominem, modus operandi, modus vivendi

Unit 4: voracious (me af), credulity, odyssey

Unit 5: malign, rectitude, carpe diem (woohoo dead poet’s society)

Read A Report to the Academy on break & really liked it. Big fan of monkeys. Got slid a positive EPR while I sipped my hot chocolate muhahahahahaha

Dkm, this has been sitting on my desk for years now & after unit 1 I’m realizing this is definitely for people way younger than me lmfao but I’m committed to the bit.

My favourite word from unit 1: Levity

Read “My Eleven Sons” on break, maybe my favourite of the stories in here so far

About half of the book down including Metamorphosis. Genuinely such a beautifully gripping story about identity & dehumanization from such an absurd lens. I truthfully thought this was about navigating depression & I don’t want to rule it out entirely but either way this was amazing.
