This book is appalling and absolutely apeshit insane

Damn, this book is MESSSY

Mess.

I love.

Breath taking. Stunning. The blurb on the front of the book "A marvel of a novel that testifies to the surpassing power of fiction."

Yeah I agree. It's just so much. I'm overwhelmed

I'm so excited.
I love Megan Abbott and am so excited with the start of this novel 🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠

So I recently and unexpectedly got out of a long term relationship. It was a big shock. And omg. This book is EXACTLY what I needed.

I just don't care for this book. I'm gonna push through but my GOD is it a slog rn

Oooooh bitch. I have to put this book down. Have been reading it for more hours than I expected to and this is the first time I'm setting it down.

I. Want. To. Scream.
I have so many qualms, I'm so angry.

(Yes I'll prolly finish it tonight though but I'm f***ing pissed.)

I have 1001 issues with everything that is crashing down right now, but I also kinda love having an intense emotional reaction to reading.
Tbd.

Immaculate.
Assassin drama I always wanted.
Was this book hand crafted for? It certainly feels like it

I hate this book so much.
More thoughts to come

But it's like the authors personal challenge was creating the most insufferable characters possible.

I just think all the characters are annoying.

What the f**k am I reading.
This is the page I realized I need a glass of wine.

We shall see

Finished the first story and realized this is not fiction... it's literary criticism

Spoiler alert: I'm bored and JUST started. It's gonna be a ruff read

Woah. So I picked this up based on a powerful reccomendation.

I do not enjoy short stories AND... let's be real, this just isn't a book I had ANY interest in.

I read the first short story, I am on page 12.

It was the most titanic powerhouses of a story I have ever read. Unreal. 10/5 stars

Holy shit my excitement is next level

The amount of times that I have cried during this book. My Jeez. I'm overwhelmed


(Also this s*** is amazing)

Halfway. Just quick check in to say "Gross, I hate it."

Icky.

Really NOT enjoying this book

reread 2022!

So excited this was selected for our book club. Get ready for me to talk about how much I love this book

Clay Cooper is a fictional daddy Allstar

Reading for bookclub. Extreme slog and painful process to get through. So dense and terrible.
