Ewwww…what is with this Flowers in the Attic shit?

I am ready for these annoying people to start getting murdered now

Oh my god, where is a hungry bear when you need it? Diana is an appallingly whiney brat.

I have had just about enough of Caroline for one day 😑

We haven’t even gotten halfway through chapter one and I’m already sick of hearing about Jack 🙄

Fuck you, ghost writers

Immature, idiotic heroine with poor impulse control

Oh my cats, this heroine is quite the piece of work 🙄

Currently reading a book not in Goodreads’ database and, since we stupidly can’t add books anymore, I’ll be tracking this one on StoryGraph.

Team Charles all the way

And heeere’s the “r” word 🙄

And heeere’s instalove

I’m only at chapter three and I already hate Jim with the force of a fiery sun.

Why…would you want your eyes to look like bullets? I don’t understand

Jesus Christ, Zoey are you kidding me? Drinking from a *stream*? Are you *trying* to get giardia? Blech 🤢

And maybe a visit to an oncologist might not go amiss, either. Dude smokes like a chimney 🤢

Oh, FFS dude. Just go get some goddamned therapy already.

Sue-Ann is going to work in an old-timey department store…yay! And we have our first casually racist commentary…boo!

It’s early in chapter one and I already loathe the “hero” and his creepy, pushy younger brother.

If you’re that hungry maybe don’t be a total dick to your host family?

Reporting back to say that, according to Google, a jabot appears to be some sort of…ruffly bib-type thing? 😱

80s fashion alert! Frankie’s job search outfit: “a pale pink silk blouse with matching jabot (matching what?!?) and a navy blue straight linen skirt that hugged her petite figure. White stockings (!!!) and blue flats completed the picture.” And, oh, how I wish there was an actual picture to compliment this outstanding description 😂

OF COURSE Chris would rather go out with Mr. Collins. Duh! He does look exactly like a young Robert Redford, you know.

*Mr. Collins* what are you doing at Whittington High School?

I hope Aislinn gets hit by a bus.

So, wait. In order to prove your maturity & reliability you’re going to…steal a car and immediately crash it into a stone wall? Oh, bless your heart.

Oh yeah, Amber. You show them all how “cool” and “sophisticated” you are in your “baggy overalls with the holes in both knees, an oversized plaid flannel shirt with a hood, and a vest” to go over the whole mess. 😂
