matt dinniman is cooking... the unfortunate part is that i'm really gonna have to read all 8 books to really get to the nitty gritty good stuff, huh

hundred pages in and i get it. this is a book unlike anything i have ever read before. i am itching for a little more plot to happen, to get into the higher ups of this whole thing but i can feel myself being invested.

the most disappointing thing so far is realizing im gonna have to buy all 7 books.

"You've never been beyond. And I have and I know what it looks like there."
oh ellen... me too.

nearing the end... just like the first time i don't want it to yet. been taking my time with this one and really enjoying it but dam... i already miss reading it

"He must do nothing to make this meeting their last; he must leave their future in her care, asking only that she keep fast hold of it."

Ellen, i know what it's like. ellen i think i understand you more than anything else. this is the part of the book where i begin to get ripped apart piece by piece.

there is something so incredibly real about this book, despite how far away it feels to read about NY Gilded Age. Reminds me of this quote:

"You read something which you though only happened to you, and you discover that it happened 100 years ago to Dostoyevsky. This is a very great liberation for the suffering, struggling person, who always thinks that he is alone. This is why art is important."

been reading so much that i feel a slump coming on... attempting to alleivate it by reading some of my 'greats'. this book does something to me...

reading this so i can gift it to a friend later on - i think i understand some of the concepts, though i know most of it is going over my head, which makes me take notes while i'm reading.

it also gives me extreme anxiety which has me hoping that i will finish this book quick

it kind of kills me that it took so long for Leah to even think of Miri while she was on her expedition... I want to believe that it is not the case but i do fear that it is...

abt halfway through and my fears of what was insinuated at the beginning of this book was correct. i do hope that this gives me some kind of insight... i don't exactly need to read the perspective of a dysfunctional family, as i have enough experience to know what goes on, but seeing some of these topics are rarely talked about, i'm curious of how Rubens confronts them...

i need the pace to pick up just a tad bit more...need something intense to happen

i know i'm not a sci-fi person because i'm aware that Andy Weir is one of the best sci-fi writers because of his realistic explanation of how things work... however, i feel like he could've cut half of the explanations and it would've been enough for me.

also, i think this book is gonna rip me apart

at this point, i just want Townrow to die.

Townrow becomes more and more unlikeable as each page goes on... i really don't understand him.
