Folks we’re making progress. I fear we are heading straight into 3⭐️ territory

Now we’re getting somewhere. More happened in the last 20 pages than the whole book up to that point. I think what this book does really well is show what happens when men are taught that they have complete divinely ordained power over women. Hazel truly has no power (at this point) and I feel like this is being conveyed in a way that feels very real. I’m also thinking the haunted house is an ally, which I love

I hate to say it but I’m lowkey bored and need something to start happening

It’s a disservice to the book when I have to read it in such short spurts. I want to dive into this and stay in this spooky mansion and figure out wtf is happening but I haven’t been able to and because of it I feel like I’m not as invested in the story as I could be 😢 maybe tonight I’ll get some good uninterrupted book time

I definitely shouldn’t have started anything before finals but I’ve been wanting to read this since it came out and Derek got me it for my birthday and I have no self control (we all know this by now). At least today I can read it when it’s slow at work and not feel guilty.

I am LOVING THIS. My 3 weeks of obsessively consuming ex-Mormon content is paying off
