What the hell is wrong with his girl? Always putting her finger where she has no business putting it? First she touches (and ruins) a painting, and now she’s touching the prostate of this underage guy??? Girl sure

I’m trying to read but I can’t stop thinking of Dolly 😭😭

“It is hard to know where something ends and where something begins. Or someone. Where a person starts or stops. Where the next begins. […]”

Honestly, it’s just incredible how this series keeps bringing philosophical material to the table without ever sounding absurd or out of nowhere…. Goddamn.

“ Perhaps we are music, after all?”


GODDAMN

It’s been 8 months since I finished Volume II of this incredible series, and it’s still so, so fresh in my head, and that says A LOT about it!

58 pages in and I’m already screaming “PEAK”!!! This is phenomenal as fuck!

The Margarita part is definitely easier for me to understand, which is helping a little. Still, I’m not entirely sure I’m enjoying the book yet. I’m glad I have the summaries and analysis to help me make sense of it because reading it can feel pretty overwhelming sometimes. Let’s see where it goes… i’m still not sure if I’m enjoying this

This is definitely an unusual book… i don’t even know if I’m enjoying it tbh

“Well, now, the latter replied pensively, 'they're people like any other people... They love money, but that has always been so... Mankind loves money, whatever it's made of—leather, paper, bronze, gold. Well, they're light-minded... well, what of it... mercy sometimes knocks at their hearts ... ordinary people ... In general, reminiscent of the former ones... only the housing problem has corrupted them …”

Unfortunately, I have a hard time connecting with the classics, don’t ask me why… maybe because I’m a bit slow and I have to put some thought on them… and I’m known for being lazy. But sure, let’s see where this one takes us!

OH MY GOD THE BLUE BALLS I GOT HELP

You can’t convince me Robert is the killer. Idk, I just think Bret is a bit paranoid and has the mind of a writer, so he’s overreacting to everything a bit too much 🤔

I’m reading this book today in this strange, dreamy state, starving and half-melted in the middle of another heatwave, and somehow it’s making the book feel even more intense…

Oh… okay

Look, I’m no prude, but this last chapter was a bit too much. I’m feeling a bit grossed out by it, but sure… I’m still here. Still curious.

Okay, I’m gonna be brutally honest: I’m loving it. I love the writing and the ambience. I love that it’s super gay, very sexualized and fetishized, and that some moments are incredibly explicit while others leave more room for imagination 🫪 I’m loving it so, so much. LEZZ GO GAYS

My silly goofy book suddenly is not funny anymore and I want to cry 🫪

Please please please someone please kill ronan or I will 🫪

If I was Mallory I would fucking murder Ronan. I hate him. Hope he fucking dies!

Oh okay The Happy Years (a little life)…

So… I’m relating to the main character in ways I absolutely did not sign up for. Some of the themes are hitting a little too close to home, to the point where I actually feel physically uncomfortable reading it. Good read thooooo
