so good so far

mega romance mood ongoing

interested purely because the first two reviews talk about it being a twee divorce novel & a stream of consciousness type thing - both of which sound right up my alley

the second half of this book has been so boring

“Why? He looks like a poet who works in finance. He has a tortured past and a trust fund. And he’s six-five!” She rams her phone into my face, and I barely manage to dodge it.”

i love that this references a meme which is already so stale that this will make no sense in the next year but i picked up knowing it’s kinda tiktok-y(?) so we persist

reading this gave me a nightmare

giving this a shot - will report back

picked this up on a whim but i love this so far - the confessional style writings like it’s a reality show and the breadcrumbing to the real plot is so good

i love the reading challenges that force me to pick up a book i wouldnt know of otherwise

rereading it and it still hits i know thats rifht

At the 50% mark and I expect the author SHOULD move over to the latter half of the book and break away from the Madison of it all.

this book is inciting so much righteous rage in me

i love this book so much it is everything that was promised and socmuch more

i’m on Margo’s side again, only because her husband is a spineless conniving bitch who does not have an ounce of self-respect beyond baseless words and the professor has it coming, but at the same time Marco as a character is not very convincing because she is supposed to be smart, and then she does very dumb things that are very obvious

im no longer rooting for margo but did ian just blow their cover ohmygod i can’t read it’s like a trainwreck

im infact rooting for margo

having the most inexplicable experience where this is sometimes really mid and sometimes unputdownable

reading back to back duds and this being one of them

i am not too sure if i like this - the romance ngl feels a bit forced?

stuck at page 50 bc i am so sad for elwood and the future that was ripped out from his hands with no fault of his 😭
