Oh geez, why is Gregory such a pretentious prick??? It’s too early to hate a character…

“OH BUDDY” 🥺😩

I have been S C R E A M I N G for the last 2-3 pages omfg

I have never in my life related harder and weirder to a sentence as I have to this one:

“A bus can go anywhere, but there’s only a few ways to go wrong with a train”

Jesus how much of an asshole was Amos that poor Laur is ECSTATIC to be d i v o r c i n g him!!!

Nawh man… Michael didn’t deserve this… I would have loved for her to actually try to explain. I kinda hate this.

HAHAHAHA automat bladder emptying was not on my bingo card for this book lmao

I am too sad. I am actually like going through the stages of grief and I am not done bargaining with the possibilities of the magic attic.

“Roman numerals are difficult to read, VII, XIIIII, VVI” LOOOOOOOL

“She walks through the marble lobby, and it feels like something huge is ending, but she knows it’s not.”

Love non-endings.

Thang god this was just as easy

WHAT IN THE WORLD IS HAPPENING?????????

The “nooooooo” I just screamed…

GO PHOEBEEEE ‘T GIVE HIM ANYTHING

FUCK MATT!!!!!!!!

I was reading this whiplash and Sorry Mom by Kelsea Ballerini came on and it was a triple wave of some sort of sour regret of uncontrollable happenstances… it not only made me cry because poor Juice doesn’t know how to manage her feelings (not that she should) but Phoebe loves to metaphorically shoot herself on the knee and make it worse by thinking things like “I would have been a good fucking mother.”

And this is why; this is why Lila is the character I like. The seaplane is the reason she will never call off the wedding to Gary, the seaplane is why she would never give a try with Jim and it’s what’s right, because she needs more and she knows that.

Yea of course this is the underlying trope with Jim and Gary. And it actually makes me feel bad for Jim, and also for Lila.

This is the first moment i have truly disliked Lila

Someone did what to the car?? What in the world did I just read???

“It’s not easy being angry at your own creation. It’s like being angry at yourself.”

This whole conversation between these women just had me with my mouth open and in awe of the many ways one comes to understand pain and growth.

“Zero waste”

This whole convo took me out, perfect.

I swear to god I mockingly repeated “I tHiNk wE sAy OrCaS nOw” when I read that and the next paragraph just shattered me because, and I cannot stress this enough: FUCK MATT.

“Do you not know how to have sex, bro?”
“I’ll have the gourd toast”

HAHSJSHJSHSJS

Juice really cracks me up; and, on another note I really like that Espach refers to her as Juice.

Also the whole O.J argument is not something I would expect would bother a person like Lila, maybe her mother but not Lila.

“It’s too early to get excited, isn’t it?”

AS I SAID: FUCK MATT.

Fuck Matt and fuck his texts.

Lila is just… she cracks me up and she doesn’t think the world is filled with rules and I really really enjoy her as a character, she just sees what she wants and gets it and I get how that might be annoying but the fact that this woman just doesn’t seem to know that obstacles exist in such a easygoing way is delightful to read.

““You don’t make buildings for people who are just sort of okay.” […] The wife is the reason the man becomes the architect. The mistress is the reason the architect keeps building.”

LMAO THE TEXTSSSSS FROM ROBERTTTTT

ugh I really dislike Marla, she’s just like me when i dissociate and get pissy.

“Because of she’s not going to die, she’s going to have to live”. 😌

“Calcatta, the kind with gold veining that Phoebe had dreamed of getting for their kitchen.”

Istg it’s the most mundane of phrases and thoughts that really make me tear up in this book. I already cried by page 23.
