Woof. This is HEAVY. Childhood abuse survivors beware :’)

How are you gonna have great nuanced dialogue about unfair expectations on Black writers+their systemic exclusion right after you say Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie didn’t deserve an award lolllll pls. Both of these narrators are insufferable, and they just keep putting others down while glorifying themselves 😭

AND mocking another IRL book series/author by proxy/fans is also gross? even if it’s unserious mockery and the series is (imo) strange, why are you immediately looking down on everyone in such detail lol???

+mocking the fans of the narrator’s book series is disappointing. god forbid a book girly find community and SUPPORTS YOUR ENTIRE LIFE FINANCIALLY BY BUYING YOUR ART &MAKING FANFIC &KEEPING THE SERIES ALIVE?!? you can feel ick about what you made without mocking the people who stood by your creations since day one…the fact that the writer thought up this scenario is sad & makes me not wanna support this irl book

first line hooked me but downhill since. how do you talk (beautifully btw) about invisible chronic pain, then IMMEDIATELY invalidate and mock others’ invisible pain (phobias, anxiety, etc. which the brain perceives as physical pain and can induce physical illness) and label them a hypochondriac? it’s giving patriarchy assuming other women and kids are just hysterical/stupid and not experiencing “actual” pain

bro would rather jump out a window than feel pain (verbatim) (pain self-inflicted or otherwise), and puts pen to paper just to say this basically every other day of his life? aight bet i’m in

Strange… this kinda reads as a stand-alone? A lot of it is repetitive canon? Also obviously not the same narrator speaking as the original series, but the language itself doesn’t hit quite the same as the original books… it’s actually serving YA whereas 1-3 were more… atmospheric maybe?

Jessica3: what the fuck is this
Jessica7: it’s serving internal family systems but make it sci-fi
Jessica1: stop posting updates nobody reads and finish the book already

re-read to prep :D also these “THIS IS NOT BELIEVABLE” and it “MISINTERPRETS FUNDAMENTALISM” reviews did not age well lolllll y’all seen America lately? ✨ authoritarian theocracy ✨ Christian nationalism ✨ cult behavior ✨

Imagine if the people leading the country rn actually read this………

a silly lil read so far! solid palate cleanser.
