Chapter 7 a rare short 50 pages we love to see it. Chapter 8 is literally the entire rest of the book tho 😭 worst part is that it does actually make sense to partition the book in this way so i cant even be properly mad at donna 😂

Chapter 6 defeated why are there so many chapters with 100+ pages donna why are you doing this to me 😭 anyways my new job gives me a lot of empty time waiting for calls so i will transform into a reading fiend you've all been warned 😂

y'all thought i dnf'ed but no i'm back at it XDD
PART 1 FINISHED who tf allowed donna tartt to make chapter 5 100 pages long

May have manifested too hard last time coz it seems to have given Henry a serious case of spill-the-beans.

Also why tf is the next chapter over 100 pages long. Donna what are you trying to do to me.

The need to know keeps me going. Wtf is going on. Donna certainly isn't telling me.

"What are your plans for the future?"
❌️ boring. plain. passé.
"What are you doing for the next forty or fifty years of your life?"
✅️ uncommon. specific. reminds man of his inescapable mortality.

Also bunny learning greek bcos he's dyslexic has some truth to it, english has a much higher rate of dyslexia because we don't have standardised spelling, fun fact 😅😂

Decided to dnf Babel bcos i haven't touched it since march lol, reading this instead. Babel can be for another time.

'Whatever we call beautiful, we quiver before it. And what could be more terrifying and beautiful, to souls like the Greeks and our own, than to lose control completely?'
