I do think that Sally Rooney has a way with words, I overall enjoyed this, except that out of the 2 brothers, Peter's romance plot was not for me, it I do think that Sally Rooney has a way with words, I overall enjoyed this, except that out of the 2 brothers, Peter's romance plot was not for me, it wasn't well done imo.

I really inhaled this story, i would have liked less smut, and less time with the serial killer (although I understand it's a big part), but all in all I loved the romance unfolding, Dean and Cora are my babies I want to fold them into blankets

I was surprised by how easy it was to get into the story and the writing, i had problems with the weird talks sometimes about incest (which didnt happen just talking), and the sexualization of a teenage girl, but overall i love how the characters are portrayed, and the themes of religion, tyranism, philosophy, the ending as well was satisfying in this way...more
Meeh, firstly, the girlie was crushing/in love with her sister's bf, not a fan of girl obsessed trope, but it was easy to read and dramatic, (too muchMeeh, firstly, the girlie was crushing/in love with her sister's bf, not a fan of girl obsessed trope, but it was easy to read and dramatic, (too much at times), had lots of sexy times (a bit too much for me) and the sister was horrendous omg hate when family is so obviously "bad" and hateful but anyway thats life I guess??

I was gagged by this book a bit, this is dark academia, so a school setting, following no particular plot, but characters in academic situations, and I was gagged by this book a bit, this is dark academia, so a school setting, following no particular plot, but characters in academic situations, and mysterious happenings... Even when I didn't really know where this was going, I really wanted to see where it would end, and the main character may feel a bit messy, but we are only from her pov and I couldn't help emphatizing with her and rooting for her, I enjoyed the friendships represented here in this weird school, and the writing was so interesting, a mix between poetic and random everyday moments like "she picked at the dirt under her nail", and "words were silly human inventions; the painting was a vision. Its pattern had a rythm that was so arcane, so simple and true"...more
