this book is delicious omfgg

Delicious im loving this so much wow perfect read this book is everything for me

god i am such a slow reader LOL

ok hi im in the worst reading slump ever i cant pick up a book and read for the life of me

literally ignore the fact i havent finished one book i keep hopping around lol

i havent had time to sit down and read and its really irritating me but whatevrr

i love this so far

yea so i think chapter 4 was def my least favorite because i had to force myself to finish it in order to keep reading this book
Whatever im having a good time

its good i just cant w the fucking purple prose

i am enjoying this book. its very wordy tho and i probably will have to reread simply because i’m struggling to use my context clues LOL
i really enjoy chapter 3, and her connection between the capitalist system and patriarchy—beauty itself has become individualistic and exclusionary, valued on a person’s proximity to whiteness, capital and thinness!

WHAT THE FUCK

i like this. a lot
i like the way theyre both nigerian i like that theyre in contact i like that they deconstruct religion a bit and i like that ifemelu isnt stupid and actually somewhat combative
i have read this book before but never actually finished it. i’m going to finish this book in one sitting istgggg

i genuinely love this book in audiobook version so much
reality’s weird and convoluted way of speaking is somehow comforting to read because it unravels itself at me
she talks in spirals and it makes sense. me likey

before you say anything im simply intrigued by the title
it’s so unfortunate that the man who wrote this wasn’t black because it kind of ruins the experience of reading ab a black experience through a bigoted lens
but it’s fundamental towards understanding the harlem renaissance and i am somewhat pleased by the writing style
sigh

icl im struggling to read this book because im bored
but i mean. its interesting.

ok this chapter genuinely might be the most insane thing ive ever read . im finishing this book today oh my god

i do enjoy it… but its definitely something i wish i got a physical copy of instead of listening to the audiobook💔
