Libby gave me a sign from god to start this

goodness miscommunication

this is a hard but incredibly beautiful thing to read

this feels like a five star guys

I think Briony mispronouncing “genre” as “jean” (the French way) is the most hilarious thing ever so far

Not a fun story here

Good balance between complex love stories and scathing drama!

I really like the dual perspective of Jojo and Leonie. Adds to the tragedy, you know

drama drama ohhh mama

Depressingly down bad

This is already pretty good

Absolutely gripping first act.

Downer book, a bit

WHAT!?

uh oh still a little dragging

Did a lot of reading of this book today- it’s a fascinating blend of memoir and thoughts about work and fulfillment.

Stop talking about the dead dog!

Very slow-burn, sort of dragging, fascinating, VERY Ishiguro

I love the way Beattie makes her character narratives so realistic, using songs and memories to paint a better picture of a vibe. This is funny and ironic and depressing

Actually started this past midnight last night so it counts as today. Robot observances etc

The dialogue!

I started reading this book because someone had it on the table in the locker room at my work. Expect very sporadic weekend only updates- fascinating so far though

New semester slump

These two are not okay!

The writing is uncomfortably close- and I LOVE IT

Extreme tenderness + big literary angst in the same vein as Normal People or Fleabag.

Rashton was my favorite host so far... now he's dead too I guess

who dun it? and what’s behind it!

Feeling lonesome and adrift, maybe not right now but in general and hoping this will fix it

In a slump now I fear
