Amen, girl, amen.

Florence Welch said she was inspired by this book while working on “Florida!!!” so we’re reading it, chat.

“Had more of a comment, not a question “
OMG I’ve never disliked a nameless side character as quickly and deeply as THAT guy. Kuang, I know your pain girl, academics can be the worst.

CANOODLE - the way Kingfisher plays with language, characters, and the reader’s expectations are hilarious. Ishtvan is such a mushy cutey, but my goodness I need this man to ✨communicate✨

I feel like I’m missing so much information. So many things are being said and written, and I understand little of it. Yet the way it is done, makes me feel like I’ll either go “oooooh so that’s what’s been going on”, or it’ll be a really fun reread.

This girl did not just pull the “Do not look at me. I’m hideous” 🙄😤

Quick question to those who’ve read it/are reading it….does this book feel slower and more like a “welcome to a day in my life”?

Me, trying not to give any spoilers to my husband while losing my mind over the first 90 pages: “Well, well, we’ll, how the turn tables.”

❝Discretion not discussion❞ ??? The gasp I gasped. Stoooooop ✋ ✋ 🚩

SCREAMING CRYING I WANT TO THROW UP I CANNOT BELIEVE WHAT IS HAPPENING
