Reading as part of the cardiff left bookclub. It’s alright!

Wonderful!

Reminds me a lot of Dorothy Alison’s Bastard Out Of Carolina. Wondering why your sibling is praised while you’re brutalized. Also, the cover for this book is beautiful!!

Absolutely adore this.

Inappropriate suffering leads a person to neglect all others. But indeed, it requires constant attention from others. And ruins everyone else’s time.

Two pages in and she’s already speaking about being a born again virgin,, the old librarian at the st mellons library who recommended me this will hold a special place in my heart forever

Seeing “minecraft” written on the page of a serious novel is such a major eyeroll. Unless I’m reading the Minecraft Mobspotter Encyclopedia, I do NOT want to see that shit

What a slog, man! Jens writes fun songs about two guys trying to piss out of the same fly and taking drugs at a wedding and all this shit and then david shitithan takes those fun ideas and puts them in the anti-fun chamber. And guess what?? It’s not fun!!

“Violence is the only lever big enough to move the world”

The film adaptation is my favourite movie of 2024, so thought I should read this. Picked up from the lovely Cardiff Central library, which I first visited this week!

Goodreads MUST be harvesting my data because i keep getting recommended news articles about how Hudson Williams loves Joan Didion and I HAVE NOT been searching about Joan Didion OR that little gay fellow. I will be pleading my case at goodreads hq this august

The Cardiff Left Bookclub is reading Didion’s Miami this month. I had planned to join and do the same, but then I tapped on the profile of someone who had commented on the book club’s instagram post and accidentally liked one of their posts. Out of pure shame and embarrassment I will no longer be attending and will be reading this instead.

Anyway, this shit is sad!

Your mother is tuberculosis. haha

Everyone say “thank you nan” because nan gave me this book

If living a really sad life allows you to write “Kokomo, IN” then maybe it’s worth it tbh.

“God, I felt so much back then. I was soft as a dune!”

Had the chance to see jbrekkie live in like 2019 and decided against it because i thought psychopomp was ass. What a fool i was!

hi goodreads.com

i hope people keep writing stories like this forever and always

Every time they mention Greenville I just think about how much i love Lucinda Williams. God bless that woman

Now this is my kind of slop

people don’t faint and fall gravely ill from heartbreak the way they used to back in the good ol days

Dudes will really turn 25 and start working at a cafe and drinking lattes and reading jane austen. disgusting, really!
