the only thing i keep thinking about is that im gonna finish this so soon

hheyy....it might sound shocking but a hat and hair cut short will most likely not make a girl look like a boy, and the ones that have been looking at said girl's face for years would certainly be able to tell, no matter how much dirt you smear on your cheeks. this been going on for a while by the way, here is just where the """reveal""" happened (Lute gets it tho. my boy. he's smart). like, really?

last i checked the synopsis does not even hint at romance, which is utterly deceiving. there have been exactly two vague riddles thus far, and the rest is either Rhen trying to convince me she cares about science, or Rhen taking part in some teenage love drama that i definitely did not come here to see. can't wait to be Done

i finally handed in my essay on the impact of teeth demineralization technique on forensic genetics last night, so if you're still with me after the first part of this sentence, then, well, welcome!!! imma be unstoppable now (until another two essay deadlines come around)!!!!!

to the point: fuck love triangles. fuck em man. nobody wants them. stop.

1. they're still not inside the labyrinth 2. literally nothing has happened thus far. nothing. not a single thing has changed since page 1 and i am dead tired 3. this book suffers from a severe case of typical insta-love. what's this boy doing here? why should i care? where is the goddamn labyrinth and complicated riddles?????? where???????????????

IM HALFWAY DONE AND THEYRE NOT EVEN INSIDE THE GODDAMN LABYRINYH YET I WANT TO SCREAM

i know it's hard to believe but i'm yet to see the drawing of names, the labyrinth itself or the competition. i'm pretty bored with this girl who is supposed to be a scientist challenging the gender norms of this society by uh spending much of her time describing the boy she fancies for no apparent reason lmao
