i can’t understand why he likes her?

oh john… they could never make me form an opinion on you…

i always forget that john lennon produced a wasian

on reread the nachos are even more loaded than i remember. if i was koushun takami i woulda been pissed when hunger games came out and got as popular as it did…

but i know suzanne collins didn’t read battle royale because she probably would have toned down the similarities if she did LMAO

i forgot how great this book is… delicious original nachos

cynthia lennon :((
jane asher :((
pattie boyd :((

JOHN 😭😭😭😭😭

this book is lowkey an emotional roller coaster for the beatles enthusiast

ringo 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

apparently in this alternate history of england oysters are now considered a delicacy 80 years before they actually were. maybe the fairy queen was a big fan of them and changed their public perception?

or more likely, there is zero effort involved in making this book historically plausible lmao

absolutely killing me how it seems the author has ctrl-f replaced “old” with “auld” for the Scottish Feel™️ (but results in mistakes like the american main character saying “aulder”)

curiosity killed the cat 🫩

in england they call stuff prawns when an american would call it a shrimp. the supposedly english main character in this book is talking about shrimp when she should be saying prawn. american author confirmed

also nothing else is remotely english about this setting but that’s fine i guess

what the hell

GLASGOW MENTIONED

no way in hell this guy is from the bay area

oh boy

one of the main character’s “quirks” is that she likes… asian food? and in this copy at least they keep italicizing pho 😭 i’m dead

lestattttt

this takes place in SAN FRANCISCO? i am immediately locked in

i do not like this book lol

“Sometimes it’s nice to confirm that the world is exactly what you thought it was and your role in it remains entirely the same”

i wasn’t expecting this book to be so contemplative for myself but woah

hang on this one might actually be good…

🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩

i know how the fairy tale goes but this is like strange

tommy wiseau, a bay area local? hell yeah 🔥

this is not how my uk grad school is going

this is scottish propaganda

i’m sick right now so my throat is really dry and so this is all very immersive

this is actually really good so far

man this guy sucks
