Hold on, lemme FLIP MY SHIT real quick! Oh. My. God. Ohmygodohmygoooooood!!!

Both these people love their children so much that they are a united front in loving them, against all differences and I am NOT CRYING ON THE TRAIN, I JUST HAVE A SPECK OF JIANG CLAN IN MY EYES

Ahaha, never mind, I just remembered the throwback to the Sunshot Campaign and the Burial Mounds are also coming 😂 this’ll feel like child’s play by then

Spending 60 pages of throwback on that Xue Yang & Xiao Xingchen mess is very, VERY demoralising when we all know where it ends 😭

Has anyone engaged with any IP of this? Anime, manga, live-action adaptation? Or read this? I need someone to SCREAM ABOUT LAN WANGJI WEARING A FUNERAL GARB IN MOURNING FOR THIRTEEN YEARS STRAIGHT!!!

This was supposed to be a sibling story NOT A BRAVE NEW WORLD RETELLING, babe, what the fuuuuck 😩

I am feeling STRESSED 😳

What I don’t understand is why Arthur’s voice actor sounds like a Percy Weasley when he should be sounding like a Charlie 😩

I honestly don’t know if I can finish this … this is TERRIBLE 😂

I think we can all agree that this re-read was inevitable 😂

The first quip that tickled my fancy … at 76%.

I’m afraid, I’m not feeling it so far 🫣

I’m?!? Is this not auto-fiction? Nobody talks about this as auto-fiction? But the author’s Wikipedia reads like 40% of the outline of this novel? Consider me confused :D

Oh, how I adore that this just went straight in, no fanfare or recap, just *swoosh* PLOT :D

To think the choice was between Liv Strömquist and this and we still ended up here …

I HATE IT HERE

I cannot stress this enough: What. The. Fuck.

I am about ready to have a good ol’ cry

If one of the conflicts is exactly the one that is very on the nose and if it ends badly, I will be so disappointed

I was too slow to wrestle this beast in one library loan, see you again in four months, I guess 😂😂💀

Also, SPOILER!!!
But if she actually gets pregnant at any point, I WILL revolt

I was not prepared for the intensity of these shades of grey 😂

I really, truly hate it here

I don’t believe in putting myself through the pain of book one again to do this, so I actually had a solid laugh when a huge spoiler was recounted that I had COMPLETELY forgotten about. And now I’m sad — this will put me through the wringer… BUT AN EMPEROR GETS PEGGED, SO LET’S GOOOOO!!!

There is not enough book left for the depth of shit we’re wading through and it’s making me neeeeervous 😂

Sci-Fi really is something

The review that said “maybe I like being edged” is RIGHT ON THE MONEY JESUS CHRIST

I am so angry it happened like that that I don’t even know who I’m angry at 😂

I had only ever come across competitive eating in an episode of Bones, but I think these chapters are my favourite so far, what a surreal microcosm

To think that the history of the hot dog is directly connected to the founding of the FDA twists my brain into a pretzel

Elevator pitch: sell this book with a pack of electrolytes. I’ve been crying so much, replenishing my mineral levels sounds like a great business idea
