I am so annoyed at this book which is billed ONLY as fun and funny and joyful and THE BABY DIES. CONTENT WARNING: FUCKING SAD

I’m in pain

It’s a good thing I love book club because I hate this book

Getting booored

Get to the freaky mice shit!

Oh my god, I’ve got to the “inciting incident” and I’ve had to stop before I faint

What on earth is happening

Ooooooh I’m enjoying this

I love this title and I love this cover

Dunno why my brain treats commercial fic as a copy editing whodunnit but AHA THERE WAS NO SUCH THING AS TIKTOK IN JUNE 2017!!!!

Jesus Christ the scene where he’s making fun of the actor / cop is as stomach turning as American Psycho

Listen it’s Christmas and I’m lightly bored
a) not very sexy for a book with a lot of sex talk
b) lots about sex positivity, consent and porn/sex work but then someone’s sex tape “leaks” and everyone’s just like “woo hoo can’t wait to watch”????

Hmm not that far in but I don’t think I enjoy books like this about imagined famous people and their lives, I know there’s a couple others I’ve tried and can’t think of their titles but I’d rather read proper non-fiction I think… also assumed I was easily halfway so maybe zzz

Sophie Hannah is the only crazy mother I’ll keep reading once I realised this was about a dog

“Endlessly fascinating” was probably a bit strong, Bill Bryson

People can be soooooo rich

I keep reading the words of this book with a full 🤨 face of eh?? but haven’t stopped yet

Nuuuu just realised the audiobook doesn’t match up with the print version. Torn between stopping and just eyeball reading, and keeping going with the audio, which seems to potentially cut a lot of stuff out (not a bad thing according to every single reviewer on here). The 8 hour audio / 700 page paperback should have really stood out before to me as a discrepancy lol 🤔
