This book is quite the yarn. On and on and on, fantastic spandrels everywhere

What must it have been like to read this as it was coming out serialized? It's kind of making me sad because it's obviously the sort of story to read aloud to your friends or family. That's something I really miss about having a partner. Just reading to each other

Really thinking a lot about noblesse oblige and the social values of the Victorian era. I need to finish reading the history of social welfare book I've got at Dan's. It's terribly out of style these days to be a cool good dude... Which is why men are circling the drain and dying alone with their podcasts lol

This is going to be the longest book I've ever read. Feels good. Wish I'd had books earlier in life though. This would have been a fun one to read as a tween

Men sure do live in heirarchies

Nobody trustworthy is named fuckin' Danglars
