still as funny to read

What an impressive read!

While the story and the twist were predictable, I still found the pace of The Test satisfying and thrilling.

had to put down the book and think of a new perspective: this book is perfect for teenagers.

i’m feeling like the book is not going to bring me the things i wanted to experience from it, but that’s not a comment on its quality and enjoyment.

Y U NO WORK?

there was this screenshot of a few games that were played and i just felt warmth because it had Microsoft Flight Simulator.

slowing down on language complexity with this exciting non-fiction 🤩

last chapter wasn’t easy to read, but the story is entering some crazy level of “unhinged”.

starting to build up clear parallels between the fictional world and real life as a theme, and for me that’s an exciting part of reading.

this book is still underwhelming me

Piggy! you poor bastard!

that was a great introduction by Stephen King.

reading through that story of the old dog was devastating, and very well written.

like ‘em rabbits.

restarting this book for january

- “what does the book say about earth?”

- “harmless”

- “that’s it?”

- “well there was a revision on that entry”

- “what does it say now?”

- “mostly harmless”

this book is a page-turner, and the humour makes me burst out laughing 😆

“Birthdays should be suspended in years like this one: there should be a law, of man if not of nature, that you are only allowed to age when things are ticking along nicely. What do I want to be thirty-six for now? I don’t. It’s not convenient. Rob Fleming’s life is frozen at the moment, and he refuses to get any older. Please retain all cards, cakes, and presents for use on another occasion.”

man, this guy is an asshole, but a funny one.

halfway through, and getting to also stop using the timer on my tracking app because it’s infuriating: switching to Apple built-in one.

navigating the main character’s mind is such a struggle, some of it good, some of it very bad.

cruising through it slowly, kinda waiting for some present time progress rather than giving me an expressive description of the past.

the interactions are only getting more interesting as i go, maybe some issues with the main character, more fascinating than problematic.

alright, this makes me laugh out loud, and also makes me wanna listen to all the music that’s been mentioned in the book.

This book’s entrance is already catchy enough, and highly flamboyant. i like it so far!
