well that was a twist. the title makes more sense now. but also are we ever going to touch on the disease the island brings or

this man has gone mad. i’m also not 100% convinced he is alive. theres a nonzero chance the island is actually his personal hell, but i’m pretty sure he’s just crazy and/or sick from the marshes.

damn tough luck ash

yay abra (fuck you rose you arrogant bitch)

goddamn it abra

i wish i could just sit here and finish this book which is crazy considering i’ve read 70 pages and have 220 more to go. i was wondering why dj was so worried about them getting arrested but i guess they did just dig up a missing body and are now traveling with evidence

now it’s picking up holy moly

there’s so much going on but it’s not overwhelming somehow

this book is sure skipping a lot of time. it’s not a bad thing, just unexpected. also, king seems to have escaped his can’t write women curse (for now)

jesus fucking christ

i’m so excited

story six: OUCH. also: siri play “ruin the friendship” by taylor swift (that way he could not spend seven years with a man he didn’t want waiting for his college best friend to call to ruin his life)
story seven: depressing. cranky old man being reminded of the trauma of losing his brother half a century earlier
story eight: girl he doesn’t love you he has memory issues and thought you were someone else

Story five was impressively intricate considering it was only 24 pages. It’s the first time I’ve considered a narrator to be unreliable in a Lily King book. The narrator claims her brother is acting different but really he is giving the love to everyone all while she refuses to accept love for herself.

I am not sure how I feel about the fourth story. All I can think about is how hard it must be to be a parent.

story three was shockingly wholesome

first story: maybe your wife wouldn’t hate you if you weren’t so awful, hugh
second story: awwww matchmaker paula

turns out there are 38 chapters not 31 so i need to divide by 38 not 31.. whoops

what in the world

yea let’s leave a five year old and two teenagers on a random planet with nothing but vibes and some riddles

what the hell sure

okay if she’s mrs who and she’s mrs which why is she mrs whatsit was mrs what already taken

it’s kind of crazy how well this book established its very confusing world in so little pages

are they really sneaking around Commandment/Garden or is their relationship planned and intentional by one or both side(s)?

very wordy

i love it already

i love you robin
