“You named the cleaner bot Ezra Fitz? Why?”

“‘Cause Ezra Fitz sucks, Carl”

Never say that Dinniman isn’t for the girlies 💅

For a middle aged presumably straight man, Dinniman makes extremely apt Gossip Girl references

hobb either hates dogs or loves them

couldn’t pay my dumb ass to read apparently

the way I procrastinate reading, you’d think it wasn’t my preferred hobby

girl what the hell is going on

TEA

say stockholmers one more time I swear to god

I feel like audiobook is not the ideal format for this genre/style of fiction, but alas

book!Cersei is so cartoonishly stupid that honestly the showrunners were not far off with her

good GOD the ‘Game of Thrones’ show runners fucking sucked.

book Jon is so interesting. I can’t believe they took away all his sauce, they made him sauce less!!!

that’s what I’m fuckin’ talking about

they really sapped all the sauce out of Jon in the show, my my

omg the fucking differing perspectives on the same scene you get from this tandem read AHHHHHH my night’s watch boys. breaking my heart!!

i’m running with the Boiled Leather combined reading order for this bad boy. fingers crossed!

yes, i’m attempting the combined read. no, it don’t think it’s a good idea either. and yet here we all are anyway

an absolutely GOAT’d end to the epilogue. holy shit.

it’s just SO good

Someone teach Ali Hazelwood ways to conclude chapters that aren’t:

A) falling asleep
B) getting knocked out in the middle of an action sequence

We hit the smut and Ms Ali is done with anything plot related.

Time to wrap this shit up in 30 pages or less despite pretending it held actual narrative weight for 400 pages. Wooo!

Against my better judgement,,,, I am eating this up

I feel like Ali Hazelwood is going the way of SJM where her writing worsens with every new book instead of improving.

I’ve already finished this and am on my second listen because I’ve enjoyed it so much and want to internalise the information a bit better.

reading this in light of the current ozempic/heroin-chic revival is very illuminating

it’s hard not to see the correlation between how certain actors/singers are looking and the rise of conservatism in popular culture

Desperately need a good non fiction to wake up my brain and make me not crave Tik Tok brain rot

And I will forever judge every person who buys a new phone every other year. Holy fuck.

Jaime loses his hand and becomes 10x funnier

really weird the way this has been edited in terms of the order of the sections/topics of the book. an abbreviated semi-comprehensive history of how the Congo has been exploited since the early days of slavery placed midway through the book feels unwise, particularly given we’ve already been briefed on some of these events in previous chapters.

there’s also a weird reverence to the US that’s quite strange

an Israeli American found to be part of a corrupt and exploitative colonial system that supports modern day slavery and commits human rights abuses? nobody is fucking surprised.
