being expected to believe that victor has been a serial killer since he was in grade school really dropped this from a 3-star to a 2 for me

125 pages of finding victor in ingolstadt followed by 25 pages for the murders... very odd pacing

this isn't as torturous as i expected it to be :)

ok my last update WAS mean to euan who has done nothing but his best

lmao all the men in this book are useless, sidonie should marry the firebird

oh gyre you poor dumb fuck

it is not lost on me that for all the talk of the "necessity of violence" the only person they have to shoot to take the tower is the professor who plotted a war and advocated for torturing students. they accomplish the occupation, quote, "so very easily"

actually shocking how lazy the writing is on the plot level alone. "somehow they made it back to england.... turned out to be simpler than expected.... it was apparently very easy to convince an entire ship" rebecca has this way of writing that sucks all the tension out of the situations she JUST created

my God this book is condescending

actually overjoyed to learn that elphaba being obsessed with the shoes is only *slightly* less contrived and ridiculous than it is in the musical

chapter 7 is a masterclass in lazy found family writing LOL

kuang is a good writer but why does she think i am stupid

ok translator's note i see you!!!

thank god for audio books

"oh gelphie isn't a thing in the book" ok then explain She put her face against Glinda's and kissed her. "Hold out, if you can," she murmured, and kissed her again. "Hold out, my sweet." THE STING TO GLINDA WAS REAL

all the pearl clutching about the orgy and elphaba and glinda don't even GO because they have to confront a fascist

reincarnated simran is immediately the most interesting character and yet i can feel that tasha has the least interest in her. this is painful

i do feel that 3 uses of the word "viperously" is 2 and 1/2 times too many

love it when stevenson goes full found footage horror mystery mode

"you think i tried to poison you because you don't have a g in your name?" is the greatest thing anyone has ever said to mordred

you're telling me dara lives through this.

somehow it's never a good time for ali's idealism even though he's basically always right. justice-producing machine of a man.

stop telling lyra no!!! she doesn't like it!!!!

the winged lion seeing marcille use necromancy and being like "wait... did i pick the wrong guy?" is so funny
