“i impale myself on him” 😟😟

lol back two years later. starting where i left off i don’t wanna relive the first half of this book

i’m trying very hard to see the POV of the adults in this situation seeing as I am one but all i’m seeing are incompetent guardians who don’t know how to read teenage defiance as a desperate attempt to gain control of their lives while the adults around them treat them as throwaway.

this man says he didn’t break up with her six years after he explicitly left a voice mail saying we should take a break and then gets upset that she had fun on the paris trip he told her he wasn’t going to while she was at the airport.

this is some next level ross geller shit and that man is vile on his own.

the bff is genderfluid…and yet thus far the protagonist has only used she her pronouns…there’s a bit more to go but uhhhhhh i’m gonna have thoughts if this is just left at that.

I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THEY WERE SIXTEEN EXCUSE ME SHOULD THIS BEEN IN A YA BOOK

i am in intense amounts of pain right now

ok maybe i don't hate this book

no i don't get it lol there is so much boundary crossing, elimination of information, bad blood, and weird dynamics idkkkkkk main character's sister is getting married to mc's ex's sister and i think this book is a romance between mc and her ex as well???? okay....... weird weird weird

nothing wrong with this book but the miscommunication and desperate need for therapy makes me so uneasy like so many plot points have me wondering why THIS particular event was chosen as necessary to the story. I guess its just not my cup of tea. I see the worth of this empirically but it’s just got my stomach in knots.

turns out this is not sapphic. you expect me to finish a book about a widow and her late husbands mistress and be okay with it not being sapphic??? uh i’m giving it one more chapter and if it’s still this boring it’s getting a shiny dnf

am i supposed to root... for the mc to get with the girl who thinks appropriation of henna is ok because she’s better at art... bc i’m fucking fuming. ditch the romance the rest of the book is worthwhile

pride and prejudice but with an interesting narrative adjustment

you outing someone who is pregnant to people they don’t want to know even if that person is their fiancé is not right this book is like “maybe he pushes in the right direction but takes no credit” BITCH THE FUCK????

every chapter ends with this cryptic ass statement that doesnt amount to anything

literally WHAT THE FUCK is this book

UM. DID HE JUST SAY HE STARTED THE RELATIONSHIP WHEN SHANE WAS UNDERAGED BECAUSE I AM ABOUT TO CHUCK THIS ARC INTO THE SEA

took me to this point to realise brennan and alex are the same person. Alex Brennan. full name. referred to interchangeably by multiple characters with A and B names as well. PICK BETTER NAMES OR PICK ONE. AND EXPLAIN THE NAME. THANKS

folks idk about a hetero getting butt hurt their bff didn’t tell them they’re gay. idk. thinking that feeling of betrayal is worse than your bff having to sit in the closet out of fear bc there was no indication you’d take it well. is not. those are not equal in impact.

*deep breath* AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

oleron is a woman i’m calling it now

DUDE

i know she’s a god but did she really just fuck her stepson. while her son is still alive and kicking????

i would have hated telegonus so much for being an ungrateful little bitch except now i have a classroom full of ungrateful whelps and he is just developmentally accurate.

i don’t even know what to say
