jinx c’s Reviews > The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath > Status Update

these entries are truly like a drug. i cannot put them down. i have to physically pull myself away from the book. i have never had someone understand me so clearly before, so equally. i sound like every single girl who ever discovered sylvia plath but i mean this. i would not pour my heart out here otherwise. i have cried everytime i have continued my readings and im nowhere close to finished.

this woman ASTOUNDS me it is INSANE how much she understands me & i sound like every other 20 year old woman discovering plath for the first time whatever just know that to ME i UNDERSTAND this i GET it i get every aspect of it she is inside my brain, she articulates my thoughts & feelings exactly how i wish to be able to. & IM ONLY ON PAGE 33! FUCK MY LIFE!!! her writing makes me want to run into oncoming traffic.

“before i give my body, i must give my thoughts, my mind, my dreams.”
