idk why i was at all surprised when the cover literally says what it is but no this is wild

continuing the arc of post-yoga training literature it's getting real damn juizy

poetic, ecstatic, animalistic, psychedelic, kaleidoscopic.. all my favorite things. I’ve been trying to communicate this state of mind and trying to guide others to reach it and this def gives me some ideas

Oh God I’m So Excited. Page 16 And He Already Talked About A Woman’s Rack. This Time In The Ring With Haruki Feels Like A Different Game

alright where we goin here buddy

its interesting... there is a real psychic distance from dracula himself but it also allows him to haunt the novel, to lurk and linger for a while...

tomorrow’s the day

just read the most beautiful description of a Virgin artwork in the Hagia Sophia, weeping

it’s consistently good .. maybe I do like historical fiction or maybe this is an excellent specimen

oh God it’s so good

pages numbered backwards so won’t be able to update progress .. so hyped .. might cost me my book goal but who gives a fuxxx it’s already so good

this is everything

it’s not terrible but makes me realize how i do and don’t want my own writing to feel. all plot no poetry

haven’t been reading as much since i started working… but this has also not been helping.. you will not best me marquis… i am finishing this in spite of you

i don’t prefer translations but i do like when you can see the og language peek through as well as turns of the new language. also it’s hard to believe this isn’t caricature but i do see the shadow of a point here

oh now this is horrorrrr baby

recording a pod based on this one and will link it in the actual review :)

mmm i'm having a good time reading this, sometimes i wish i could simply enjoy things and that's it but it looks like i just wasn't built that way!

it's entertaining but a part of me wishes it was more literary. feels like she's having fun playing and i wonder if she's going to get serious in these last ~300 pages

the genre is drawing me to sink in some hours on this sunday

i think i forgot who wrote the book i was reading and… she reminded me alright. horrified (perfectttt cover art by the way)

don't think i'm ready for the juice or the long haul to be honest and yet here we are

genteee ainda sei ler em portugues

reminds me of the "i think you guys might be thinking about yourselves too much" meme

books like these make me wish i had a professor of english perpetually in my pant pocket

having to put a hold on this book while i still have it checked out so i can get another few weeks with it as soon as i check it back in is a perfect example of the paradoxical absurdity that this book is about. god i love this kinda stuff hahah

loving joseph's juicy maddening little mind games
