When you have a suspicion you’re gonna be right 🧐

I’m kind of in love with Marguerite

I am loving this and the audiobook as well

“Sometimes, if you want to save other people, you need to remember to save your self.”

“Have you ever considered that your body carries you?“

An important lesson for 17 year olds to learn. Especially in light of a recent acquittal…

Ugh. Knew it

👻 “Maybe the library needs a ghost. Maybe we just leave it there. But of character, ya know?” 👻

BWAHAHA

I’m sorry but wtf?

I’m loving this

I KNEW IT

I restarted it, thank god I hadn’t gotten far, and boy is this book soooo weird. I have some ideas so I’m excited to see where this goes.

Just barely started and we already have an unreliable narrator.

We love to see it

For my own mental health right now I’m going to put this down. I am not sympathizing with Miranda at all and am supremely annoyed by her. Add that do a depression flare and I’m not in a place for this. I’ll try again maybe next summer?

Miranda is so ver Depressing and Draining to read oh my god.

It’s a bad time to be reading this when you’re exhausted

It is exhausting being in Miranda’s head

I swear if Alison Cochrun’s next book isn’t about Parisa I too will cry in the middle of an airport.

“I’m not a child, Charlie.“
“No, you are a grown man having a temper tantrum and throwing your flip-flops at innocent flowers.“

“Tiny tragedies are more than enough.“

“That’s a very nice offer, but I am currently dating 10 women on a reality show, so I will have to pass.“

Y’all when I say that line had me gasping

“Because I’m thirty-four and single and these things matter to me.“

Me and Parisa would be bff’s

I’ve already highlighted SO MANY things. Cora is amazing.

But I’m also wishing I reread Come Tumbling Down ahead of my last minute choice to read this on the plane. I’ve forgotten a lot of what happened in that book unfortunately 😕

Loving this. It’s got the same vibes as Poppy War, but with half the gore.
