238- charybdis hah i know that (epic the musical)
"I closed them with gritty, trembling fingers" the contrast between the boys will never not break me 239- "all i saw was his beauty, his singing limbs, the quick flickering of his feet." he sees beauty in achilles doing this but not himself. not sure what there is there but yeah! 240- "this, at last, is what i can really do" 241- "From time to time he would... beg me to join him." and he had to. not only due to obligation but. how could he say no? "She hissed like a snake, and vanished" woah man okay 242- "no wonder he was aphrodites favorite: he seemed as vain as she" OH CLOCK HIM 247- "Hector hasn't done anything to you" REPETITION. FEAR. DOOM.

As it says in the title

I’m not loving this book so far 🥲 I want to like it I really do, I just don’t think it’s my cup of tea. It’s almost too predictable? And the characters seem very one note so far.

Anyone else feeling this way? Can anyone provide insight into if it gets better?

I’m like near the end of the book and just now getting invested in the story 😅 the stuff before this wasnt bad, but nothing really made me want to binge read this

I like what she's getting at, but I feel like at this point, she's saying the same thing in twenty different ways. This might be because I'm not used to reading extended essays like this - I've read a decent amount of memoirs and other nonfiction, but this is different for me. I do find her writing beautiful however.

hi everyone! i've been looking into getting an ereader for a while but have not found one that seems to suit my needs until now. i read & review ARCs (has to be Kindle app- kobo is not supported for most) and would also like to be able to get libby/overdrive/hoopla for my personal readings.

after looking into boox, it seems it is integrated with Google so i could download everything i need via play store. the price is a little steep but i will be in college next year so i can see myself using it for college readings as well!

so i have to ask: for those of you who own a boox, which one do you recommend? do you like it? has it lasted you a while? is it able to do almost anything you'd need? any feedback is greatly appreciated!!
