No, stupid, because the whole point of it all was that they were on the brink of death! The little girl was already brain dead!

Dude, lay off the commas!

Are you for real?!

Alice is suuuuper annoying!

Listening to the audiobook: Tuna, Tuna?! Tuna? Tuna! Tuna!! Tuna!!! If she wasn’t a vegetarian, would Tuna have eaten a tuna sandwich?
I keep picturing the fish mascot from that canned tuna brand, but as a woman…

Rude, I’m a redhead with blonde eyebrows and green eyes, and I don’t approve this message- hope you get disappeared with your great aunt and great grandparents hoe.

Aha, Tamsin is never going to stop being deliberately ignorant, huh? The rest of this is going to be a chore…

Marshall is a largely uninteresting character to me so far, aside from when she makes fun of the horse baby’s dad for possibly fucking a horse. I hope the story gets interesting enough to make up for Marshall soon…

I didn’t realize exactly how “horse girl” this was going to be- which I suppose is on me. I saw horror genre and I saw horses, and I frankly don’t like horses so I assumed this would involve a lot more horror and less fawning for my equine enemies, lol

Hey, did you know Viv is pretty? Don’t ever forget that Viv is pretty, but if you do fail to recall that Viv is pretty, this fucking book will remind you nearly every chapter that Viv is fucking pretty ok? It (the fact that Viv is pretty btw) is clearly the most important part of this story, based on repetition.

Listening to the audiobook, and I’m struggling to not drop this book- there are interesting bits here and there, and the rest is boring or annoying. Why do I need an entire Carly chapter pretty much dedicated to her ogling what’s-his-face? Why does everyone, even other adult women, treat Vivian like she’s 14 rather than 20? The world may never know.

“It was an honor to meet you”? Why the fuck was it an honor? That’s a weird thing for that character to say at this point…

Oooh, I get it now- the gates are literally for gatekeeping, or media consumption elitism…”I can quote the lines of this 80s movie word for word, I am worthy!” smh

I’m trying to read through this to join a book club, but the fucking info dumping is killing me- I figured maybe it would just go on until the world was satisfactorily established, but now I think it’s going to just be a whole book of this crap…

🙄🙄🙄

Seriously? There’s one culprit responsible for pretty much everything? Laaaame

Did all the phones stop working?! I know you’re not smart, Kit, but what the hell?

It’s a good thing the protagonist Kit tells us she wasn’t a good student at the start of the book, because it makes it easier to understand why she acts so stupid at times.

Interesting, but the info dump is starting to wear on me…

Dropped, I can’t do it anymore- MMC sounds like a 14 year old edge lord that desperately needs CBT. Dialogue between characters is weird and stilted. Internal monologues are repetitive.

Hard to believe the characters are supposed to be college aged- they come across as high school freshman, at best…

Weird grammar choices make this unpleasant to read as well- like a scratchy sweater, but it’s words on my brain instead of fabric on skin.

The whole “…the type of beauty that notorious serial killers use to lure their victims,” bit is real fucking strange- either the FMC and/or the author should consider more therapy.

Hopefully there are actually interesting aspects of this story…if making an FMC foolish and lame is the only way to set up the introduction of an MMC then they’re not going to be characters I’m able to get invested in.

LMAO why does this chick smell a piña colada and why is dude turned on by it??!

Incredibly boring

Double checked, she and Tommy were the only ones in the group to have been born outside the prison 👌

Hang on, MC says she was born in the prison, and now she says that her parents would take her into the mountains…?

Struggling with this first person narrative right now…

Really? One guy did all that shit? It’s a bit boring when there’s only one antagonist responsible for all the grief in a character’s life imo

Really? It’s ok that buddy boy let his parents throw you out into a snowstorm with nary a fight- because he has anxiety? The message of this book is clearly “everyone fights secret battles everyday,” which is all well and good but your anxiety disorder does not exempt you from responsibility, pal.
