finally a GOOOOOD chapter. ch 6 is exactly what i need to see for the rest of this book: intense (almost sexual?) tension. amazing lyrical writing. vivid imagery. fight club's beginning had me worried, but i'm finally feeling this book.

im a little unsure about the writing style. it's easy but poetic, lyrical prose. words and phrases are constantly being repeated and it reads dramatic. some of it is BEAUTIFUL writing, but imo some of it becomes too much and drags on for too long. it might just be because i really don't know whats going on in the story?? i get how it's being setup but it's lowkey confusing for now😭

if i had a nickel for every time a gay author wrote about someone's balls being cut off, i'd have two nickels. it's not a lot but it's weird that it happened twice
