"Horrific as it was, the present dark, I was afraid to leave it for the other, permanent dark--jelly and bloat, the muddy pit. I had seen the shadow of it on Bunny's face--stupid terror; the whole world opening upside down; his life exploding in a thunder of crows and the sky expanding empty over his stomach like a white ocean. Then nothing. Rotten stumps, sowbugs crawling in the fallen leaves. Dirt and dark." p488-9

have i mentioned that i love this book? it's so powerfully written and it's teaching me that i in fact do have the attention span for longer books as long as they interest me

this book is so good. oh my god. i didnt let myself expect it to get so interesting this early on.

i rly want more time to read this rn, im very curious abt how this story will progress. i dont like that a prominent character is named julian bc i cant help but associate him with julian from these violent delights.
