I love this book.

Literally everything IS tuberculosis. They mentioned TB on my DAIRY FARM TOUR today!!! And Isatu is my new favorite person- I am NOT going to be a lip service prayer person!!!!!

SPOILER!!!!:




Why is Dessie hiding her illness from Tom?? And since when did writing poetry make someone crazy???

Adam is growing a pair

Curiouser and curiouser

Currently sick & in bed but this line made me love Lee even more than I already do.


"How could your mother do a man's work?"
Lee smiled. "My father said she was a strong woman, and I believe a strong woman may be stronger than a man, particularly it she happens to have love in her heart. I guess a loving woman is almost indestructible."

East of Eden pg 357. I love this book.

TIMSHELLLLLL

When Darrow calls Sevro a real friend 😭
Tbh I thought this game thing was going to be 5 chapters and it’s been 16 and I’m kind of over it can we have a different plot line now???

I wish the author used less dialogue and more scene setting. I’m often confused about location/setting because it’s such a small portion of this book. So much is left up to assumption. Overall, though, I’m REALLY enjoying it!

This book is heart wrenching

“We grew together, and now are grown. In her eyes, I see my heart. In her breath, I hear my soul. She is my land. She is my kin. My love.”

Chapter 24 was my FAVORITE yet! So fascinating.
