Gosh I love this man

I’m so torn y’all

I don’t begin to comprehend how Backman can take such particular human experiences and make them so universal

“Break some more,” they wished, “go to pieces in front of us.”

MY GOSH

Okay but calling it “my friends” when it’s the most romance heavy Backman book I’ve read is…a choice

“Healthy people aren’t quite right in the head, the artist thought.”

Good golly gonna just go cry (2024-2025 is the year for us chronically ill)

This is bastille’s fault

Listening to the very delightful audiobook

I CANNOT WAIT

Oh come on. B R O. no she did not.

Straight up not having a good time (and neither is Cyrus so I guess it’s the Desired Effect)

So do y’all actually enjoy being reminded that it is the year 2025 and Important Things Are Occurring when you read fiction

Wow sometimes you read a book and you just KNOW the author wants to be in a classics syllabus in 50 years

I know it’s the point but also Cyrus’s family is way more interesting than him

Okay I can see how this might become insufferable over time but right now the tone is delightful

“All I ever did was make you sleep—you did the rest yourself” B R U H

“Root for the protagonist who just roofied a dude” is crazy behavior but since she’s a girl I guess it’s cool

This just in: drugging is okay and powerful as long as the drugger is the girl and she’s doing it magically

How can I possibly be not even halfway through this train wreck

Nooo not another celery

Ah good old fashioned MacGuffin fantasy

Gosh I love evil twins

Wow there are SO MANY realistic things happening rn! /s

“Daisy Jones and the 6 meets Wuthering Heights” is an absolutely insane comp and I also feel like I’ve already read the book just from seeing it

The mixed feelings are real. Wow

“This funeral parlor used to be a Dairy Queen, right?”
“That’s RIGHT. It worked out so conveniently for us. Already had a giant freezer”

The fact that I’ve screamed laughing three times already is distressing considering the subject matter why is the writing style like this

I’m definitely enjoying the world but Kell isn’t that interesting thus far (but I’m thrilled by the prospect of Lila)

I think this has been on my TBR since it came out lolz
