Ch 4 - Reading Lelache's intro Knowing What Happens made me queasy (highly positive). I'm excited for our book club to talk about Orr and Haber obviously but I'm VERY excited to talk about Lelache. I love that she realizes he's serious and "solid" (great word choice IMO) so quickly — he's simple but he's the realest person around!

Chapter 3 - GEORGE ORR the creature that you are.
"He did not see connections, which is said to be the hallmark of intelligence. He felt connections - like a plumber."
He's so dreamlike and Haber is so grounded in reality. Perfect foils. I like that his subconscious is characterizing Haber before he finds the strength to do it consciously.

Chapter 2 - Haber's perspective is so fun to read, especially the way he talks about Orr. what an absolute dickhead.
This chapter opens with Orr telling a story of dreaming his abusive aunt into the shape of a white cat in his dreams. It ends with him dreaming of Haber, who openly admits abusive paternal intent in his narration, as a horse 🤭

Rereading!
Chapter 1 - forgot this world STARTS OFF weird. I love Orr's perspective. The "I can't," quote got me both times.
