Audiobook read by the narrator. One giant kick in the face to a central tennet of my existential floundering. Plus bonus fun facts = ‘Decide� has Latin roots, meaning “to cut off,� i.e. other options. And of the same family as ‘suicide,� ‘homicide,� etc. brb, words

A very good day to start this one.

Updating here because the oh-shit meter just hit 1000 and I had to get up and do a couple laps around my apartment, and I want this to be forever immortalized on goodreads

“I stopped watching for ridicule, the scorpion’s tale hidden in his words. He said what he meant; he was puzzled if you did not. Some people might have mistaken this for simplicity. But is it not a sort of genius to always cut to the heart?�

Well this is just insanely addictive

I don’t know who I need to talk to about this, but Owen Wilson is the correct casting for this film adaptation. A sarcastic science teacher who says “dang it,� is excitable over small findings, and gives no fucks for authority? Definitely him.

Bracing, tense, turbulent.

ACB is magnificent.

LOKI.

REUNION 🥰

Well I never thought in a million years I’d ever be reading this book, but here we are. Bought it in a Blind Date With a Book which is pure kryptonite for me, turns out. Sold on “heartbreakingly tragic, stunning, literary genius, unique cultural perspective.� I’m completely distraught with how readable it is.

I just had to stop because this whole read has been a cauldron of grief and in one sentence it just spilled over. Need several minutes.

This is SO GOOD DAMN

s-l-o-w. Thought many times of DNFing. But I think I can finish tonight/tomorrow.

“This is my pain. You can’t have it. And if you took it away, I’d miss it.� brb off to spend 12 years digesting that.
