The surprises are not surprising, I fear I simply will not lock in at this point 😞

Ngl really not enjoying this read for several reasons even though it is valuable and good. Need to push through the last 3 hours.

Didn’t expect this to address eco-nihilism (complimentary) but I’m already loving her approach to existential thoughts over someone like Oliver Burkeman (who I still enjoy)

I’m definitely not loving it, but at least the plot is moving again 😣

Laughing at so many things & wishing I could share quotes! But also not sure if the story is working for me 🥲

Listening to this one - you can tell when the narrator starts a new session cause her voice starts out high and soft before sliding back into a lower monotone lol (arg)

I’ve accepted nothing matters so it’s a bit fun again 🙃

This is really not good and I’m sad. The beginning’s bad prose eases up but overall it’s a mess 🥲

Sheesh

🎧 laughing out loud at the dark humor/social commentary and really enjoying the way she’s written stream of consciousness sections

Ugh just gotta get through it. The author isn’t even *pretending* to be interested in her agency (all for the sake of romance)

and that’s just chapter one 😦 science rules (michael! michael! michael!)

Ready to be done with this one

update from retcon city: feminism has left my body (complimentary)

hellooooo editor?? soo many small errors why

yo the writing is not great

Not buying this conflict

We’ve got Zander’s POV now, but personality-wise he’s faded a bit (it’s giving book 2 Raihn). Never not looking for another Bjorn (ilysm Danielle Jensen)

Fun when the time it takes information to travel is a feature not a flaw

Liking it a lot more now 😌 many beautiful passages and more interesting choices

Decent momentum but I feel like I’ve been toiling through the obvious for hundreds of pages.

Why did I have the impression this would be low romance? Would it hit the spot if I didn’t feel bum-rushed?

‘So she understands why (she) might blame anyone and everyone who contributed to ___. Blame isn’t a precious resource, to be stored up and given to the one person who really deserves it. It’s a thrashing many-headed monster, big and mean and sprawling.’

Master of his domain?? Ok Seinfeld 😂

EW this is anime level American caricature and what kind of brother calls his sister BABYDOLL
