somebody make up a happy ending and send it to me so i can that for when i finish this like u guys……..

last paragraph of chapter 1 oh he’s crazy

was gonna return this early bc i was like hm not in the mood for it right now and then i read the word guillotine

just don’t think i would recommend this book to anyone 😭 it isn’t horrible but…

august and myla thinking [electrical current, 1977] and not landing on the blackout means they didn’t watch the get down… making an enemy out of me

not on the train 😟

niko not having a clue what’s going on

august in her bella swan bag. ofc it took me a while to get to the part of the book where i can read it without stopping every 2 minutes but we’re here 😁😁😁 v engaged because i’m like hold on what genre is this

the scene of lily cutting vegetables at the kitchen table is so sad never write that again

#parents_out

sort of like the fosters where there will be a side plot in ep 5 and then they re focus on the main conflict for 7 episodes straight and then revisit the side plot in ep 13 and it’s like oh i forgot they even existed/this happened… forgot all about calvin and The Man Ts but lily has your tea, shirley

gonna finish this before august but we need july pt 2 to make that happen i think… don’t think there have been any flashbacks since i last updated my progress so still ??? about the purpose but other than that still love it

200 more libby pages left that could potentially explain the purpose for the flashbacks but until then i’m ??? hate (what appears to be) pointless dual timelines because i feel authors sometimes rely on it to keep readers engaged when they could just stick to building interesting characters and/or conflict

very cute very cute we love it

making my way through this book v slowly 😭 lily’s parent’s flashback chapter was so random and short and there’s only been one so far so not sure what that’s about

have a theory for the second? Big Twist 🤨 related to david/monique/evelyn

ACK

love the structure of this book

think i may have predicted how this is gay hold on… and if i have, im sad about it because it’s a little less exciting than i expected

okay just read chapter 3 and it’s giving

hate the writing so far 😟 always dislike when first person narration is just a sequence of small events (i.e. i did this, then this, then this)
