back to being agonizingly boring. uhh this brother and sister died in their sleep in a fire.

i just can’t wait to finish this and be done with it.

ok this is surprising—they found irma. she might have a concussion, but aside from that and some scratches, she’s fine.

i thought they’d all be forever lost, gone, but this is a welcome surprise.

it’s kind of boring but i’m going to try to stick through it. i’m at the part where albert and mike are at hanging rock; mike stayed the night there while albert went back, then he returned at the middle of the night to check on him and had to get a doctor to check up on him.

the thing is it’s a pretty atmospheric read and the action is what the absence of the girls does to the people surrounding them.

i don’t really get the point of reading it if i know they won’t get found anyway
