This is breathtakingly good...

Just watched Materialists last night, and there are definitely some thematic overlaps here—still really enjoying this!

This perfectly captures the ‘obnoxious grad school philosophical artistic expression’ tone, I’m loving it!

This is very hypnotic so far!

This is almost suffocatingly depressing.

This is enjoyable in a guilty pleasure sort of way. But some of the writing is ridiculously overwrought—don't compare angst to the Vietnam War or Kool-Aid at Jonestown😅

OMG this novel is painfully incredible! And what an Author's Afterward.

Damn... I'm heartbroken...

Wow, this is SO good so far!

Super minor but it really irritates me: why does the female protagonist have to be the most generic, algorithm-rigged archetype possible (listens to Taylor Swift, watches Bridgeton, reads Rebecca) 🤣🤣🤣

This is very readable, but also pretty familiar...

As someone who’s trying to learn French at this exact moment… this reveal hits different. 🤣

So many plot twists—the last few chapters have been very exciting!

Hit a bit of a lull earlier, but now I’m fully invested in the story again!

I'm flying through this! So far enjoying this even more than Strange Pictures!

It’s not a good sign when you need to ‘explain’ the ending in the author’s notes 😅

The ‘popular highlights’ shown in my kindle app for this books are so bizarre… 🤣

Past week has been tough, so hopefully reading something trashy will hit 🙃
