this girl is pissing me off she keeps flip-flopping between decisions and then blaming others like she wasnt the one who made things this way

"every ovary in my body was popping" miss girl you only have two???? and wdym popping???????

"especially heinous": 5/5

wtf was that

for being such a super smart graduate student, alice can be REALLY dumb sometimes

VERY excited bcs I've heard sooo much polarizing stuff about this book 👀

something bad is going to happen i can feel it 😭 i dont like this

this woman is so suffocating and stifling, just reading it makes me feel trapped, how did Jennette do this for so long

AND SHE'S ONLY 11 RN ITS GONNA GET WORSE 😭

borrowed the audio book from the library. can't wait to read it although I already know I'm going to hate her mom

excellent book but Emma is INSUFFERABLE omg, I need a break from her

an actual line from this book that's killing me:

"So are we hitting both towers," Carra asked flatly.

what better way to start my danmei journey than read the fish mpreg novel

oh god pls don't tell me this is insta-love

if theyre dead im going to snap my kindle in half (being very vague here dw)

im actually obsessed. wtf why is this so good

"mother": thought it was an interesting metaphor for an abusive relationship, but might have lost me towards the end

"inventory": interesting concept, but I felt like this just reaffirmed my ace-ness more than anything else tbh

finished "husband stitch" and thoughts:

one of my fav short stories. had to read it 2 years ago for a class, and I still remember it so vividly. a sadly universal tale of womanhood and motherhood and sacrifice.

oh how I despise white feminism. what a gift rf kuang has to capture the mindset of this so perfectly, in all of its selfishness and privilege

this book so perfectly captures the feeling of being an immigrant in an English-speaking country, esp if they used to be colonizers. the battling emotions of feeling at home and loving this place, but also feeling like a traitor to the people that have been killed by the very country you now find refuge in. very interesting stuff

I dont care if this book is a bit anachronistic and maybe not ""objectively"" brilliant, I am having SO much fun here

(I also do think it's genuinely pretty good so far, apart from a few small stylistic choices)

im only 25 pages in and im already sick of the word pissfish

I don't think it's a good sign for your romance book if I'm finding the bad guy more interesting and compelling than the male romantic lead 😶

why is fuchai kinda......

almost halfway through but I feel like nothing substantial has rly happened yet, just been a lot of buildup :/

SCREAMING CRYING THROWING UP IM LOSING MY MIND KIM DOKJA WHAT ARE YOU DOING

only on chapter 60 out of 551...... why is this book so long........

"I was yours before we even met and I'll be yours until we die"
AJDJDHAJ SCREAMING CRYING THROWING UP, WHEN WILL IT BE MY TURN

girlie is kinda an asshole ngl. I don't mind that tho, makes her feel more real.

why are things always weirdly super sexual. youre supposed to be regular roommates/friends. is this what being an adult is like. you just wake up one day and you're cursed to only speak in innuendos or with sexual undertones?

shelving it for now bcs it's kinda dragging
