I'm a big fan of the fact that being called "Hamlett" is earned out of respect for being a legacy but Hamlett refers to Horatio by last name as well. Whether its because he is used to everyone doing it for him or because he also sees Horatio as an equal in magical prowess is up for debate but its a really neat detail.

I KNOW I'm almost done but the unreality/dissociation(?) of these last chapters is messing with my head so bad that I cannot bring myself to keep going. This is both a good thing for realism and a terrible thing for the mentally ill (me).

I'm emotionally distraught and I fear I am siding with the unreliable narrator rather than believing in nuance.

I miss Lia, I'm glad we are getting Hamlett Horatio time but I miss Lia.... Where is she.... Where does she keep going....

Truth or Dare is in fact a queer right of passage but specifically in small group settings at far too old an age to be playing such a childish game.

Oh Hamlett you are so bipolar coded and I cannot tell if this was intentional or not but I love it either way.

The fact that this books is making me want to own a physical copy to making annotations and also read Hamlet in order to do a comparison... This is truly devastating news.

I love subtle hints for polyamory actually building towards it instead of weird love triangles. I love polyamory in fiction so bad.
