this is so boring and totally not my style. it's like a journal entry recalling everything that happened to him, and it's so clinically-written and it reads like a textbook. also, it's pretty racist.

so far, this is some creepy, misogynistic bullshit, so we'll see how it goes 😅

this book is getting boring but i paid full price for it at b&n so i refuse to DNF it

i'm almost tempted to not even read act 5 because it's like 30 pages and none of this play makes sense

i gave up on that rhetoric book on feminism because it was super boring and my professor recommended this book instead, and it's already 10 times more interesting.

this book is disturbing and graphic but what did i expect signing up for a war class

this is by far the most boring and difficult to comprehend shakespeare play i've read thus far. i don't know why the language is suddenly so confusing but i literally don't know what's happening

between how graphic this is, both violence-wise and sexually, it's gonna be reeeeeally interesting to discuss in class 🙃

love me a woman who can't be tamed

Book number two for my war literature class, let's go. So far, not bad at all! I'm hooked, but exhausted

i'm so torn about this. i started it and LOVED it, but i put it aside for too long and now i've forgotten pretty much everything, but i don't have the time at all to go back and reread it.... :/ aghhhh i hate when i do this. what do I do?????

so close to finishing.... this is a stupid criticism because the class i'm in is literally called "War Literature," but this last half where he's actually in the war is pretty boring. the domestic drama was much more compelling.

i'm liking this a lot better than the comedy of errors! this one is actually comedic and i love the "girl tricks people into thinking she's a boy" trope

there's something about being in the middle of 3 books that makes me go "man, you know what i need right now? to start another book" ........

beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful

this book is gorgeous, and i adore the main character. i can already tell it's gonna be 4 or 5 stars. i don't even care that i'm reading it for class!

at this point, i'm just oscillating between "this is the best book i have read in my entire life" and "how am i gonna make it through restore me?"

I KNOW I'VE ALREADY READ THIS BOOK ONCE THIS YEAR BUT I DON'T CONTROL MY OWN BAD DECISIONS LEAVE ME ALONE LET ME LIVE

i'm reading this slowly because the writing is GORGEOUS, but also because I think it packs a lot of hidden meaning and I want to make sure i'm not consuming it too quickly and missing it

I understand why some people say that this get dry in the middle, but the beginning packed such a punch that i'm still leaning toward giving it 5 stars

this is a great historical fiction novel. but the romance is absolutely gross and abysmal.

male lead named Alexander? I just crashed through the wall kool-aid style. im HERE for it!!!!!

i hate this so much. it's so fucked up. i'm so mad i bought a finished copy

I WAS JUST HERE FOR THE LIGHTHEARTED BOY ANGST AND NOW WE HAVE THE JAPANESE MAFIA AND BOYS TRYING TO KILL EACH OTHER????? UGHHHH WHAT HAVE I DONE

Not gonna lie, I'm pretty bored. I didn't think I would like this because it's a book about a sports team, and all the discussion about the sports is putting me to sleep. Also, I'm getting all of the characters confused. Nothing's really happened yet though so hopefully I start to like it more!
