Ca slay toujours

Ca m’a coupé 🙄
Bref.
Les interactions entre les personnages qui représentent bien les dynamiques hommes-femmes (pouvoir societal et dans la conversation, confiance, daniel etant passif etc)
Ce qui est aussi intéressant so far that I picked up is the debate the characters have about the utility of books (the professor uses them for research but doesn’t fundamentally care, whilst Martina wants to burn them)

C’est la première piece de theatre que je lis de mon plein gré sans connaître l’histoire, et so far c’est un chef d’oeuvre. Je m’attendais a qqc de complètement perché (comme les romans d’amelie nothomb) mais c’est en fait beaucoup plus réaliste et d’actualité.

Nb: Les interactions entre Marina et les deux hommes et la repartie de Martina nettement supérieure a celle du professeur

So far it’s a very typical YA book, but it’s quite irritating that it’s set in the UK but the author uses so many american words (like talking about junior/senior year instead of sixth form etc)

So far it feels like a boring version of a girl making a TikTok about « the power of the universe » and « manifestation » etc
But this book feels very pointless, as its ideas are either painfully obvious or straight up too silly to apply to your own life

Common sense but in a rude way

Still good but the constant upspeak is a bit annoying

For some reason i took a 6 month break?? But so far it’s really good

First impression: like sally rooney, but with good writing

What a load of nonsense. If you’re not paid well it’s your fault and not the company’s?? Don’t be scared of not being able to pay your bills????? People go to school because they’re afraid of not making money???????????

Dnf - i really don’t like sally rooney’s writing style

Why is persephone so childish and stupid
