Dov is so cringe

*lets out a sad sigh* I just wanted to google the character and join people praising what a sweet person they are… this is like my a little life reading experience all over again. No more googling nice characters in books!

Kaori gathered him so fiercely. You at that up.

“My ambitions for you are slowly being realized, and, even though you are unhappy, console yourself with the thought that it was part of my plan for you to be unhappy for a while” thanks, dad…

Didn’t know I would be sobbing today. Thanks, Seto and Mikako.

the high from binge-watching the anime has died. I'm invested in who/what the White Lady is, but things aren't moving. I am glazing over the political intrigue and economics. The only thing that will save the pacing is Mike Tyson making people kith.

It feels like two books glued together: the sequel or spin-off is attached. If the book ended at the halfway mark, without exploring life after/other relationships, I wouldn’t leave desiring for more. The figurative and literal chapter is complete. Now the rest of story is giving me even more of things I don’t want/need.

This book is erotica. Paying people a living wage and ensuring they have a good work/life balance for their mental health?!

So far, it's like watching Penny Dreadful, but without the sex and nudity and more sapphic. There are a lot of commas, asides, interjections, etc., which has me gasping for air trying to finish a sentence. Chop chop!

Not me nodding along to Vaisra basically saying “just stop being depressed/having PTSD; I don’t see how hard that is” good ole pull yourself up by your bootstrap

Where is the plot? It’s fine if a book is “just vibes”, but it has to have at least a modicum of entertainment

Not my favorite character!

Listening to this at 2x speed and it’s still slow. Watch Hannibal instead

It sounds like republicans talking about trans people in bathrooms…

Buddy reading with my coworker
It’s not good

So the speers are basically Uchihas. I don’t like how my mind works

The rage, disgust, and shivers coursing through my body while reading what happened to Venka

Beijing accent roast. I live

Watched the movie the first time and loved it. Listened to the audiobook and hated the first book. Rewatched the movie recently and didn’t like it as much. Yet here I am.

Starting to get good now. It takes a while to pick up.

This office break in scene is traumatizing to listen to. I dont think I should listen to spicy audiobooks again.

In a capacious pot

interior design/photography side note: there’s so much terrazzo and color captured in retro film.
