Not enjoying the ADHD depiction and my god why does she CRY EVERY OTHER PAGE??? Listen, I have ADHD, am a deeply emotional and very sensitive person, but I know how to regulate my emotions as an adult - not always, and not always successful at it - but like....lady, get some therapy.

I find myself needing to force myself to slow down my reading, as I can feel the pages passing by as quickly as Achilles' fingers must have done over the lyre

This woman has more hot flashes than I do and I'm going through perimenopause

Glad I read Elektra - I have more context for what happens in the first few pages

The child 's voice in this audiobook = talon claws on a chalkboard

Takes some cajones to be living in Pittsburgh, talking sh*t about Columbus.



Alex is clearly modeled off of The Bear (TV show chef guy)

How a poem written by Ox would go:

Roses are red red red
Violets are blue blue blue
I'm a big doggie who howls
At the moon moon moon

Good lord, the author's penchant for repetition - and I don't just mean "pack, sun, home", I mean like the freaking main plot points of how Joe gave Ox the wolf statue, and how he is not worthy, and good lord, literally everything else - feels borderline obsessive at this point. It's driving me up the wall.

GORDO IS ONLY 38???????????????

(thirty-eight, thirty-eight) (iykyk)

Ok, the thing is.... the narrator for the MMC constantly sounds like he's got roid rage and massive constipation....

This is not going well

Seriously? Thats what happened at the airport? *eye roll*

I really need authors to stop trying to write song lyrics. They are never good, often much worse than that. Writing a book and writing a song is not the same skill set.

I mean, I get people are into different things, but no part of me ever likes hearing "he had his hand on her throat". Also, "he spit the whisky into her mouth" - ok maybe they are into sub-dom stuff, but this all felt like.... degrading, not sexy (and not in the "i have a degradation kink" way....) this book is awful

This book sucks, but I will finish because it is so short...

Not trying to be unkind because I know it must be hard work, but I swear the narrator for the FMC sounds like Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam when she reads lines for the MMC 😆

I'm sorry, but like.... isn't his voice in his/ her head the same as his actual voice? This is really dumb and I need this part to go by really fast because it aggravates me

The singing and lyrics are SO CRINGE

I honestly cannot stand this book. I wish I was willing to quit and not finish the remaining 38%.....

Only 5% in and I'm legit cackling SO LOUD. I will be shocked if this doesn't end up 4 stars +

Generally not my kind of read - insofar as the characters, while clearly having had various struggles, are like... so far, a bit too....twee? I don't think I find Bo boring because I'm a cynic and think that such a perfect person can't actually exist, I just find that.... he doesn't seem to have much to his character except always having the perfect, most desired answer for everything.

I'm really enjoying this FMC so far

Ugh, I relate to this fmc waaaaaay too much

Uuuuuggghhh this character is less dumb than the one in The Love Hypothesis, but why is she still holding on to the idea that whatshisface hates her? It is completely illogical and this extremely irritating.

Already one of the most beautiful books I've ever read

Currently extremely bored.

It just feels like.....reaaaaally long....

My dislike is intensifying

Hey, is this guy tall? Is he like, sooooooooooo big? Also is he an ass?

Garbage. But I will be finishing the last hour and 20 minutes.

Percy is a real asshole.
