Status Updates From A Theory of Dreaming (A Stu...

Is this really how this book is going to go? Neither of them being honest with the other and off doing their own things? ☹️

It would be nice if Effy and Preston actually communicated with each other.

So grateful to have an ARC of this! I’m already so happy to be revisiting the world (and Effy and Preston of course)

Ch 6.
