This is twilight zone level of horror

“That was the one thing I didn’t count” she says for the second time. Really not counting rn I can tell

Gotta say I love a book where the main character doesn’t even have a name

What the fuck is going on

I fear I liked this book more when there were no women in it

“Life is not an apology”

This one’s gonna take awhile

Spoilers// my favorite part of these “experimental” horror stories is that the experiment is always in pursuit of knowledge and genius. You all raised children who are now reading/learning/understanding at a POST GRADUATE level while simultaneously just starting puberty and you expected to CONTROL THEM? Nah that’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard

Okay Josh, they are still 12. Maybe you should’ve made them 14/15

“But aren’t some things more about how they feel than how they taste?”

Spoilers// there were about 3 mentions of what the boys looked like in the first 200 pages (still don’t really know what J looks like fully) and yet within 30 pages we already have girls talking/thinking about Ugliness? Okay gender norms

This chapter is called Panic and boy am I panicking

This one is better if I have no thoughts

Oh! He doesn’t mean the boys were spoiled in the way milk spoils, he means it in the way a fly would spoil a glass of water’s purity…

Another old white guy who has taken peoples lives into his own hands and damn the consequences. I want to slap him.

Wait all of that happened in her first 5 days of life and now she’s been alive for hundreds of years of years? I’d be bored too

Idk what the rest of the books is for tbh

We finally made it to Scotland, which was the whole reason I picked up this book

Finally getting to this blind date w a book

Tell me this guy DIDN’T just f*ck a prostitute, tell her she’s going no where in life and that she’s going to end up dead soon bc of her profession, and then immediately LEAVES because she’s CRYING? Tell me I’m wrong, please

Actually he deserves to be underground

Set up for book 2 🥰

“I will protect those who cannot protect themselves” I am sobbing and screaming at the same time

Ah, we’ve reached the climax of the book

Hadestown mentioned!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No one talk to me rn

Okay,,,,, this is absolutely up my alley and my Ashkenazi Jewish heart is having a great time

Reference to a book I read earlier this year <3 I’m having fun with this book :)
