Puh, es ist schon beeindruckend zu fühlen, wie sich der eigene Literaturgeschmack über die Jahre hinweg verändert hat..

Damn, I knew this would happen, but I dislike timejumps sneaking up like that...

Oh, now we're cooking!

Es ist so elendig belanglos...

Ohh, now we're cooking! Finally we learn more about Gilead and stuff happens. The time jumps have been a bit overused for the time being.

Ngl, it's getting a teeny tiny bit exhausting to read by now...

That lack of quotation marks... I dunno if it's genius or frustrating. It does bring the point across though...

It is so stark and businesslike written. Which makes it seem dry, but it is so incredibly heavy and depressing.
The fact of when the story takes place for our main character makes it even sadder and more impactful.

Puh, ich hoffe ich finde da in absehbarer Zeit etwas leichter rein...

Maaaan, I wish I'd be able to give two flying f's about the female lead, Carolyn. But wow, what an intense showdown. Really enjoying the actionscenes so far! What else is supposed to happen, though...

Oh well... 50% in and it feels like everything we are going through could have easily fitted in the first third of the book. It is fast paced, at last...

Getting slightly bored now. The book is unexpectedly intense (and gory), yet I miss some characterdriven highlights. With everybody having expertise in their own fields, it still feels underwhelming as the agenda seems to shift every chapter.

When I first heard about it, I thought of something a little different. But it got me intrigued.

Oha, das kam unerwartet.
Inzwischen fühlt es sich jedoch leicht träge an, da schematisch weitestgehend das selbe passiert.

I still enjoy the heck out of it, but the horror feels so vague in specific scenes and I don't think it's due to the story but the writing in a very specific way that makes me feel a bit lost at times.

That little kid is a gem. Really enjoying my time with this book!

Not a fan of the writing style so far.

Somewhat glad it's just a short story. Don't know if I would've managed more of Dire Dan.

Wow, I did not expect this premise to hit this hard.
