lowkey the mother is fucking hilarious. she finds out her baby son is in fact not blind and thinks "yet another man conforming to the system 🙄" then years later discovers he's a horrible little incestual freak and is like oh we are soooooo back

“Whether you come as a lover or an executioner, I am ready to receive you.”
holy shit

the fact that everyone in this family is so fucking insane that the house itself is decaying...love

hmm. guys i think we might have to kill all men

i will give it to the haters that the way holden describes women is foul. however he also seems to think he is better than every man in this book as well so maybe it's less about hating women and more about being insane. further study needed for verdict

when i was 15 this book was hilarious and it still is but it's also fucking depressing. his little brother is dead dude

holden explaining the different ways boys at his private school are handsome...now what's all this then

reread because everyone treats this book like it's the male manipulator bible and holden caulfield is the scum of the earth but i loved it when i was 15. seeing if i can clear my boys name here

the chapter on the satanic panic is fucking crazy i'm so fascinated by this bout of mass hysteria

"Shortly after reaching the colony, I fell fatally in love with Louis..Even in his cruellest moments, Louis touched the tenderness in me..." 😭❤️❤️❤️❤️

constantly thinking about eric andre's "do you think margaret thatcher effectively utilized girl power by funnelling money into illegal paramilitary death squads in northern ireland?"

margaret thatcher was such a vile witch i wish her death had been more painful 😔

the fact that the hbo show removed the entire trial is crazy enough but removing when the old bailey bombers started humming a funeral march while their member turned traitor left the court room is fucking wild to me like this sounds like something out of a movie already and yet they fumbled it????

50 pages in and lestat has already cried at least ten times by now i ❤️ pathetic men

brendan hughes simultaneously being lucky enough to successfully break out of jail and unlucky enough to end up in loyalist territory with no ride is so on brand for the provos
