already know i'm gonna love it. PJ is such a good character to follow. Already invested in him and the kids.

only a few pages in and i love the dry wit and characterization

pearls: clenched

ooohh the webs we weave

the fact that this is regarded as THE revenge story and the count is being such a mysterious and sly little guy is so funny. like men will do anything but go to therapy

man, i love a book that constantly puts a smile on my face

so excited to see where this goes

DANTES YOU BAD MF

i get it

YUMMM

Eating this up so hard. I love this to bits oh my lord

so good so far. love the concept and the execution is chef's kiss

I like the story and message in this book more so than 1984, but the execution acts more as a social/political thriller than a deeper exploration into our society.

Though the term "Orwellian" has become synonymous with our current climate, I find it to be a bit excessive. While yes, each day we are approaching a dystopian world much like the one in 1984, I can't help but think of the several points in history where countries displayed "Orwellian" traits. I mean, literally North Korea! Anyway, there is a lot in this so far that feels too much like our current reality! Yikes

Time for a reread!!

So so so so dense

"The i only claim I make in writing a memoir of that time is that it may not be factual, but it is true."
