The premise of this is super interesting but dear GOD is Ellie going to be like this the entire book? I can handle unlikeable but I don't have the stomach for insufferable. Pick up your damn phone you fucking baby.

Also vom, a podcast plot.

I hate Rob.

... am I supposed to like Rob?

Is this literally just 500 pages about rape recovery???

White nonsense.

I'm literally 20 minutes into this and I can't stop making a face at the.....really odd attempt to tell a woo woo scottish/irish-flavored magical white people island story set in.....Oregon.

Incredible how much better this book is when Phoebe is interacting with other people rather than trapping us inside her mind and her past.

I'm finding this fine but really obvious....

Wow this Seivarden storyline is real bad, isn't it?

...Does this get better?

Only a white guy could write this flavor of ecofacsism...

Okay so I think I'm going to hate this but I can't stop laughing about the the dwarven king being named Matt.

This is excellent, but I simply need a break from it, I have been reading too many "woman experiences harrowing misogyny" books in a row.

This is a sad tragedy, however I have unfortunately gotten to the point in this book where it becomes clear that everything that happens can be tied to McCandless being a young, white, privileged kid who is deeply and stupidly a libertarian....and that is just very very morbidly funny.

God, I just hit the Silken quote and honest to god groaned. This is so dumb.

Very easily and happily skipping over the 30 min foreword by Gaiman....

I hate this already, my god.

Oh shit, this is really good.

This is honestly traumatizing and a primer for why NOT to take your kids to church.

Not sure I'm going to recover from what this book has taught me about wasps....

I dont know if I can do this, im just so. Annoyed.

Literally 6% into this book and I have a sneaking suspicion it's not about her using the week her ex-fiance gives her to move out of his house seeding it with mushroom spores and tbfh I don't know if i can handle this book "dealing with the situation in a mature way" or whatever. Truly uninterested in any version of this story that isn't her putting a curse on the next 3 generations of their family.

This is probably a terrible decision on my part. Also I for some reason had thought this had a modern setting....mostly because the minotaur on the cover looks like he's wearing a t-shirt and I definitely did not read the entire summary in advance...

Wowza, I am not the audience for this.

20% into this audiobook and just discovering it's abridged?!? The narration is really good tho, I guess I'll keep going and just...make sure to also put this on my list to reread...
