There are many typos and errors in my copy. A whole paragraph has been doubled at one point. There are a few typos and missing punctuation spots so far as well.

This is absolutely bonkers.

The other commenters were right.
We go to a place. Eat specific meal. Have sex. Talk about how interesting the book is. Repeat.

Okay. I read "The Lesson." I am inching closer to the end.

every single female character has been described as desirable, and has been explicitly mentioned to have sex/be sexual, or undesirable and explicitly mentioned to be too unattractive in some way for the man to have sex with. Cool zombies are cool but I can't stand this.

I like the zombie concepts and JT but DAMN do I HATE that Dez is described as a "überhottie"
Like yes the girl main character is the cool girl... Who eats pizza and drinks beer but still has a perfect body and is blonde and hot....

Why am I reading this

Zetian loves victim-blaming. At least there is one woman she talks to (the other woman was a caricature).

For a feminist story, Zetian has not spoken to another woman in real life for the past 120 pages.

The Bald Soprano- I read on wikipedia that Ionesco was inspired by language learning primers (specifically for English). And oh boy, you can tell. As someone attempting to learn a second language, the sentences and phrases you have to parse and work with are nonsensical!

I gotta say, as a triplet, this whole concept is hitting hard.

My eyes nearly saw my skull when Logan revealed that he was reading "Never Let Me Go."

okay at first i was thinking this book is BORING but then... that ramped up real quick with this historical section

this may be the sickest cover i have ever seen

"Sparrow" was absolutely beautiful and bittersweet.
