holy shit lol

holy shit

as someone that likes to do a “chapter-a-day” kinda thing, the chapters’ lengths are annoying. i like the detail and foreshadowing tartt has really started to incorporate. i love the book a lot so far.

reading his words is a blessing beyond words

prologue + chapter 1:
god, wow, tartt is an impressively good writer. k was told i was going to have a difficult time getting into this and that it wouldn’t be really good until past the 100-page mark; but i was truly hooked from the prologue. truthfully, without it, i would probably think the book is boring. but this is so so so so good. i love the allusions and everything about it. can’t wait to read more ^_^

liking it

Overall interesting, I think it’s commonly misread but I still hate Orwell so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It’s decent. Still a hater

- I hate Orwell
- it’s not horrible
- I think it’s interesting to see how it parallels to real life and too many people go “1984 = communism, communism big scary bad” when, it parallels life under capitalism and fascism if anything
