reading with jaffa - it's been over a decade since i read this and it's definitely a middle schooler's book but i cannot get over how usamerican it all is

"leftist" infighting... truly a time-honored tradition

1) i am so tired of reading about them fucking lol. it's typical smut and nothing too bad or good, it's just that everyone is horny but it's not erotic.

2) christian's relationship with "mrs robinson" is genuinely the most fascinating part of this book for me. how he talks about her, defends her, interacts on the topic of her is so real and honestly? very compelling.

i have to kill victor frankenstein

big fan of how this is just so far going "those STUPID westerners thinking this is all about IDPOL"

this is just one big hateread because i saw that "dark romantic retelling of phantom of the opera" and i knew it fundamentally did not understand and misread the phantom of the opera.

these bitches are insane

it's so obvious when it's an american writing anything regarding/set in the soviet union like at this point it's just embarrassing
