yep, I get it

It’s reading quickly, but kinda like an encyclopedia entry about someone’s life rather than a story.
I’m pretty sure even the chilliest rehabs wouldn’t support someone getting into a relationship with a person you met there.

“What was Ireland if not death’s waiting room?”

“Eventually, you will return to the Earth. You already are a part of the Earth. What better reason do we have to take care of this Earth and everything on it than the knowledge that we are of one another?”

“…here is the nature of life. That we must love things with our whole selves, knowing they will die.”

oh this book has already got its teeth in me

I have so many theories! And all of them stress me out!!

enjoying this very much so far

gotta crush the back half of this book before the library takes it back

True love is checking their boots for scorpions in the morning

finally cracking into the ARC - this one’s going to be a doozy

Yeah, eff those yanquis!

Can confirm: pregnancy is 100% being bored that you have to pee (again)

Wow this is fucked up

Oh, it’s heartbreaking to read this knowing how things go for these people

Part 2 of this book is a much quicker read to my brain

“The mighty past wears hard against the present, like oceans, wind and rain on limestone cliffs.”

took me a bit to get used to the switching narrator/POV, but it’s unfolding in an interesting way

“There were gods here once…Don’t know where they went. Maybe we ate them. Maybe we became them.”

Dang, this book is so good.

can’t tell if my ebook is corrupted or this weird redacted-esque stack of black lines is intentional?

This narrator is PSYCHO for realsies

Mrs Adler is always where she needs to be! I’m enjoying spending more time with Ofelia’s perspective, too

I definitely haven’t seen enough Slashers for this MC’s hyperfocus

feels like I should be more familiar with Slasher films to really get the most out of this story

makes me wish I knew Morse code (I’m plugging them into a translator as they show up)

I am feeling repeatedly called out by this book and it is an EXPERIENCE
