i hate richard if he were worth my time id write a 20 page essay why he sucks

so henry borrows books in ARABIC and then says he learned from the PERSIANS how to handle poison? persians speak farsi. not arabic. how much more ignorant is this book gonna get. what an infuriating mistake for this oh so knowledgeable book.

i can't lie i can't wait for bunny to die 😭

why are are mcs in books like these always so enamored with the only female character in the group? (especially when there's no tension between them whatsoever, they barely interact 1 on 1) also, why is there only ever one. (this is so aggressively non-diverse)

richard honey you're seriously getting on my nerves

it's interesting enough but how do so many people love the characters in this book? they're racist, homophobic elitists. how does anyone enjoy anything they say or do.

"It is a terrible thing to learn as a child that one is a being separate from all the world, that no one and no thing hurts along with one’s burned tongues and skinned knees, that one’s aches and pains are all one’s own. Even more terrible, as we grow older, to learn that no person, no matter how beloved, can ever truly understand us."
