i keep re-reading certain passages because they’re so hypnotic. incredible stuff.

kitamura is so immensely talented!!!!!!!!!

this is seriously so genius i’m freaking! out!!!!!!!!

i see what kitamura is doing and i am nodding in intense agreement and admiration.

“i felt a little relief, to be away from the young man, and then a jolt of unforced admiration, for the totality of his performance. i barely knew what the performance was for, what form it took or what purpose it served, but i understood even then that it was a performance of the highest order.”

you ever read a stretch of pages so good that you have to take a breather? because i just did.

i had to put this down for a bit because life got busy but i’m so locked in now. there was a plot development around page 300 that was so genuinely terrifying and engrossing that it really cemented the book as an all-timer.

not even 1/5 through this and i can already tell that it’s going to change my entire perception of what literary fiction can be. i keep breaking out in goosebumps UGGGGHH

I AM SASHA FIERCE!!!!!!!!

GROSSSSSS but i’m obsessed. so pointed and real.

girllllll hahahahahahahahahaha

i keep turning the pages and gasping out loud…. i’m living for this…………..
