I'm actually so nervous😭😭😭😭😭

I'm not sure how to feel.

May have over exaggerated a bit. I still dislike a handful of the essays, but there are also a handful in here that have aged wonderfully and that I very much do resonate with. The reviews were definitely right about the book being a mixed bag.

I was already well aware of just how normalised age gap relationships are in the queer community, but I'm not even a quarter of the way through and it's already heavily reinforced that belief for me. I honestly could not care if I'm being oversensitive because at least I can cope with having my queer identity be rejected by my parents like a normal person😭 You don't want partners, you want to be coddled.

The brief discussions of sex trafficking and prostitution during chapter 12 is probably one of my favourite parts of the book so far. Very much a reflection on how child/teen celebrities are mistreated by the adults around them for their own enjoyment, much like in Finnick Odair's case.

Very thought provoking.

So much is happening.

I'm so fucking excited...

About halfway though now. I am very curious as well as concerned as to how this book will wrap up the story.

Currently 11 chapters in. I can't tell if this book is supposed to read as a satire or edgelord humor, or possibly both. Either way it's definitely making fun of itself as well as the main character.

A little over halfway finished now. #Excited
