I’m actually surprised by how much I enjoyed this book! I suppose I had low expectations, but it was really beautiful and I did not have the same issues with Nareh that other people seemed to have, her fear seems like a totally valid and at some points relatable thing that was holding her back and dictating her choices. Also so refreshing to see someone acknowledge just being with someone because the fear of being alone is so much stronger. Literally so many fucking people do that and I’m sick of pretending like they aren’t! (Honestly how I feel about most straight couples, like most men actually just kind of hate women?? Anywayssss) and I loved learning things about Armenian culture. Even though the word Armenia/Armenian/S was on like every single page, I could do a word count and it’d go crazy, that’s just a small edit I’d make, I felt like maybe the author wasn’t trusting me to know these things sometimes. But yeah cute, good for them ]]> Review6914869715 Tue, 19 Nov 2024 00:40:59 -0800 /review/show/6914869715 Bug gave 3 stars to Normal People (Hardcover) by Sally Rooney
Sometimes I wish people would say the beautiful things they think about people. But that’s not normal people behaviour I guess. I used to be codependent once, I’m so glad I’m past that now ]]> ReadStatus8602578136 Wed, 06 Nov 2024 19:20:27 -0800 /review/show/6984988257 Bug wants to read The Fire Next Time by James Baldwin

The first like, 60% of this book was abit of a struggle and at some points I did want to put it down. It just felt like page after page I was reading the same thing it had me wishing the book wasn’t in first person I was very over being in Yami’s brain. But there were certainly nice parts to it. Tbh I thought Emily was going to be the final love interest and Bo was just going to be the inspiring and out gay friend, I think that would’ve been fun. So I don’t really understand the inclusion of Emily otherwise lol like why was she there. Yami’s mum also had me stresseeeeeed before she apologised, like that kind of dynamic is one I hate to see. Glad it got resolved though ]]>
