this is one of those books i'd started reading a WHILE ago before deciding that it's too hilarious and fun to waste on those times (sounds doomy, it's just a thing I do with things ik I'll enjoy). can't wait to actually laugh at a book again :D

pro tip: don't reorganize your book collection if you already have a whopping 15 current reads. You might end up thinking that reading the GoT series in its entirety is a great and feasible idea

a doua ocazie cu care o citesc și parcă fie o văd cu ochi mai blânzi și înțeleg de unde ‘vine’, fie începe în sfârșit să se simtă ca stilul Tatianei Țibuleac și doar și-a făcut singură un defavor când a stabilit ordinea fabulelor

publisher: ok, Neil, so the first book about a guy in prison who gets cheated on and then finds out his father is a God was a MASSIVE success! what do you have in mind now?
Neil: so! GET THIS! This new guy finds out that his father is a God, gets cheated on and then ends up in prison!
publisher: my god… brilliant

to be fair, i too would fake my death and leave my entire family starving for some good fucking peas

been moving slow but im finally as excited about it as i'd expected to be in the first place! missed neil sm

I've been waitin' for this one TURN IT UP

proof that you can DESPISE an author's book while still considering them one of your favourites due to other works

god I fucking wish I were Jared, 19

loving the It subchapters, sort of glad they’re only appearing now, sort of disappointed for the same reason

how was that both underwhelming and exhilarating

958 pages in and I still feel like nothing’s happened.. like I KNOW things have obviously happened but… hmm

i really DO want to take this seriously but then find myself laughing and googling ‘what drugs was King on while writing IT’ :)))) man, that fucking smokehole ago vision subchapter was SOMETHING

KICKING AND SCREAMING, if Stan gets interrupted again I STG

mike: oh boy! this sure does look just like a crime scene! :o cool, ANYWAYS :D

not to be That person who critices a book based on its adaptations, but i'm unsure whether the Effect is greater when presented w King's og dual timeline chronology or w Muschietti's time jump chapters - the 'placement' of certain scenes in the book feels disconnecting, while the movies build up towards that emotionally charged significance? really curious how the intertwined timelines play out either way

omul meu trece de la deja vu inducing mommy issues si voyeurism la Petruta, text ‘studiat’ la gimnaziu😭

the (hypothetical) perfect-attendance-kid urge to keep pushing instead of DNF-ing is… indescribable

The ‘Falling Down the Rabbit Hole’ subchapter(?) was such a ride and exactly what I pictured (or hoped for) when I read the blurb :D
GOD I love this book, which is awful since it was an impulse purchase and it will endorse future ones :))

‘There are a bevy of mysterious illness books. I prefer those of the sudden pandemic variety.’
very 2017 of you to say that =))))

it really took 3 references for me to look up pics of My So-Called Life Jared Leto and… yep, completely understandable, Annie, go ahead :))) I too would want that as a permanent fixture in my dream reading nook

*banging fists on the table* MORE! MORE! MORE!

mă amuză cât de ușor e să raportez tot ce se întâmplă la propriile refugii, cunoscuți, situații :) totul pare extrem de specific si familiar, in anumite cazuri declanșând amintiri (pe care nu numai ca nu aș vrea să le disec, dar nici sa mi le amintesc) :D yoo-fucking-hoo, am urgenta nevoie sa citesc niste carti complet paralele cu tot ce tine de mine; more on the actual book later
