I’m feeling okay with this Ivan development because Bob did my girl dirty…Lowkey this story is all about decentering men

Even when men are blobs, they ain’t shit!

Bob just wants to have fun

I think that Vi is so incredibly insecure that it becomes self obsession

I sorta feel like Kevin’s whiteness makes him truly unable to comprehend what it’s like for Dana. I’m not happy at him being jealous of her potentially being raped. Some of the language around Rufus’ rape of Alice and treatment of enslaved people seems off— like they’re “letting” him torture them, etc

Agonizing descriptions. The writing is top tier, for sure

This dynamic is really dark. Rufus (dog name, btw) forcing Dana to convince Alice to “let” him rape her. It’s just awful

This scene of the children playing slave auctioneer is harrowing

Messy as helllllllll

Kendra, Hyrum, and Colin…..evil, evil, evil

Love how Tamma’s brother is accused of raping someone and somehow it’s her fault? Her family is incredibly hard to deal with

“Riven right through the center of the friendship, and invisible to him, had been a divide of class, privilege, and opportunity across which certain understandings had been lost.”
