IMMEDIATELY WENT TO THE GR PAGE TO SEE WHEN THIS BOOK WAS PUBLISHED. Five years and that statement has aged like genocide flavoured milk hasn't it

Real talk? I hope a yeti eats Carrie. Insufferable woman.

Watched a video and now know exactly what the visuals of the metal ladders look like in practice and the general scenery. What the absolute hell sort of hubris does man carry within it. If the goddess of the mountain eats you all, that's on you now I've seen the crevices and the narrowness of the ladders. I fear nothing on these mountains but I have a healthy fear of mountain climbers now. Thanks.

Going to watch some youtube videos now to immerse myself in what this all looks like. Probably not the usual response to horrors at high altitude but I might be Built Different

We're having a terrible time

I'm grateful to now be past the moments in the TV adaptation which distressed me greatly. In book form all three events were emotionally clipped and very matter of fact. The scenes while upsetting in book form are devastating when you see them play out in front of you with an added emotional weight. The carpenter broke my heart but the cabin boy's actor ruined my life forever and tore my heart out. (Complimentary)

This is going by quite quick.My eyes are failing me now though. More tomorrow

Reading all the Sumner sections in Jack's voice is doing wonders for the general enthusiasm

Yes, I approve

Me eyeballing Cheryl in a manner that says 'You don't get to make that demand, you HIDEOUSLY selfish binch'

'She reminded you of Jenny- it was something in her wanting, so vulnerable and unruly.'

...Keep my name out of your mouth!!!!

I have my suspicions...We shall see if I am correct

It's one of those books where no-one speaks or acts like real humans. The adults or the children. I have no doubt freaks and weirdos will always find one another and that some kids are right bastards but I do feel a lot of times words/actions on show here would in reality have been met with 'what the fuck?' rather than the dreamy complacency or blatant ignorance. That won't move the story along though.
