I’m aware this is dystopian. I knew what I was getting into but I’m not sure I can continue. It’s so heavy right now. Not even halfway through, and it just so much.

Having such mixed feelings about Keith. I don’t think he deserved what happened to him. But he was also a terrible person. But then again he’s 13, what 13 year old isn’t a little shit

I really thought Lauren’s dad was gonna be a dipstick. And he’s obviously religious but I wouldn’t describe his as religious psychosis. He is very reasonable and respects his family. I was expecting this dystopian father to put God above his family and he hasn’t (yet) so it makes me happy and nervous he’s gonna die…

I saw a post a few weeks ago that celebrities were beginning to look extra skinny as a way to prep society for starvation, which is extreme ik. But still they were saying that celebrities are pushing body culture to be skinny so that regular people will want to do the same and will be less shocked when other people start to look thinner. Now Octavia is saying that people emulate uncleanliness to blend in. Idk maybe the conspiracy theories finally got me 😭

95% of the way through and they still have not talked about the reason they stopped being friends? I guess it’s “mature” of them to just move past 10 year old drama but also unrealistic.

Why do these characters NEVER text? Ava doesn’t want to see Grace but needs to tell her Robert is coming to bowling practice? Ok send a text. “Heads up Robert is coming to practice” and be done with it. Grace wants to apologize but isn’t sure Ava will be receptive? Send a text. “I’m so sorry about xyz. I know you don’t want to see me rn, but I would like to fully apologize in person. Reach out whenever you’re ready” Grrrrrrrrr! So angry. Why this weird break down in communication??
