“I kept my tastes quiet, kept them private, feeding them only rarely and when I was sure I wouldn’t get caught. I often felt like a wolf wearing the skin of a girl, balancing on two legs and hoping no one would notice.”

“‘He thinks we’re queer for each other,’ McVries said, amused.

‘He what?’ [Ray’s] head snapped up.

‘Maybe he’s half-right. Maybe that’s why I saved your ass. Maybe I’m queer for you.’”

Alright pack it up. One of you is flirting with a bullet saying that in a King book.

He fucking came in his pants bro. I hate Stephen King so much. 🫩

Ray isn’t like the other boys, he knits, he cha-chas, he rhumbas, he cheats on his girlfriend within the first chapter.


Thank god the movie made him likable because goddamn is the book version insufferable.

STOP TALKING ABOUT WOMENS BREASTS STEPHEN

“Anthea realized that I didn’t understand and she explained what women can do together. I found that strange for I hated anyone touching me, which she put down to the memory of the whip.

‘In that case, what were men for?’”

Great question.

“‘I didn’t love my mama either,’ Mama said.

But I loved mine very much. I’d keep her secrets until there was nothing left of me but mulch. I’d led a stray back to our home just to feed her. Kept her belly warm and full…I’d give her my beating heart if she really wanted it.”

YOOOOWCH

“No—Voyne cannot allow Her that name. The name alone makes her head spin, makes her stagger up to her feet, yearning in that sunlight’s direction. Toward the memory of how good it had felt to serve. How pure. How simple.

Simplicity is a lie. Service is never easy, not when done right.”

I love a fallible knight.

“‘And if I stay?’ she asks, knowing she won’t, but curious all the same. …

‘If you stay,’ he says, ‘it is eat or be eaten. But I promise I’ll make it good.’”

things are so bad, and I fear they can only get worse.

“‘Things aren’t so bad yet. We have time.’
‘Not much of it, and meat spoils.’”

Cannibalism already? Hell yeah.

“If Crane hadn’t been such a coward, and asked for help, he could’ve avoided it all.

But nobody ever told him he was allowed to.”

Heartbreaking and all too familiar.

Once I picked this book up, it’s been hard to put down.

I LITERALLY HATE THIS PUNK ASS BOOK!


FUCK YOU FRAN!!

(I’m just powering through so I can be done)

I wonder who this book is for because it’s a straight up bad time.

Fran is climbing ranks in my most loathed characters chart.

I know how to fix all the social problems between our trio of protagonists, become a throuple.

“I will protect her, even if she is a rival, even if I too want to be Enlightened. I want to feel that paradise as often as I can.

And no one is going to take it from me.”

I love this evil lesbian.

“Gigi had unequivocally spurned Vern’s freak sexuality.”

That meme picture where it says “I’m tagged in this photo and I don’t like it.”

“What was it like to feel peace and like it?”

WOOF. Rivers Solomon writes to my wretched hungry soul.

“How come white folks were always telling Black people to get over slavery because it was 150 or so years ago but they couldn’t get over their Christ who died 1,830 years before that?”

Nothing like 4 adult men having to scheme together to take down an 18y/o Hannibal

I can’t believe the depth of my empathy for Hannibal Lecter

For a book about Hannibal there’s very little Hannibal.

“If you don’t leave—right now—I will eat you. Throat first, then the rest of you.”

girl power

Male loneliness epidemic? My proposed solution is for Maren to eat them.

“How could I scream, when it was all so familiar to me?”

“If your dear heart is wounded, my wild heart bleeds with yours.”

They are lesbians in every reality.

Grinning and kicking my feet as an evil plan is carried out.

“It is terrible to be alive. But it is worse to be to ourselves.”

OUCH! This book clawed its way out my heart.

“I am soft and bruised where life has landed its blows upon me.

All that is left to me is petty spite.”

“He was good to me once.

I hold onto that, like a prayer, like a plea.

Let this life of mine be about more than pain.”
