Did anyone else have a problem with the parentheticals in this book? I’m enjoying it, don’t get me wrong, but the narrative flow is constantly being disrupted and I’m not sure how I feel about that.
I don’t know. It’s not like I’m sitting here saying, “This would be so much better if the narrative was…”, because I’m not a writer and that’s 1000% arrogant af. I just know it’s something I’m going to have to get used to quickly because it’s not allowing me to sink into the text.
I just want to know if anyone else had that issue.

Hey y’all,
I TBR’d a book when I got on PB, and now I want to leave a comment on it. But not in the forum, instead on my activity since I have an exciting update that maybe only people who follow me would care about.
Is there a way to comment on the book without switching my status to reading since I’m not reading it yet? I tried changing my status to none saving it and then changing it back to TBR so that a new activity status would populate and I could comment. But it’s still a no go. Is this one of those “it is what it is” moments or am I missing something and there’s a way to comment without posting in forum?

But that's not why she stands out in the rain. It's because there's a moment, pressed beneath the weighted blanket of the storm, when her body stops fighting, when all the voices inside her finally go quiet, and her shoulders loosen and her lungs unclentch and her skin goes numb and the line between girl and world gets smudged, and she is washed away.
Baby I love the dramatics of it all but you don't need to stand in a storm, just run your hands under cold water to regulate your nervous system. Available anytime. Highly effective.

The only thing I'm not loving about this book is that the chapters start over from Chapter 1 whenever we switch POVs! Like why not just continue the chapter count from where we left off? Or even just continue the chapters from the POVs? Idk it feels like I'm in groundhogs day always going back to "Maria, chapter 1" when I've now read "Maria chapter 1" 3 or 4 times now in this book!
Anyone else or am I just being crazy? 😂🫨

Ooh okay this has really gotten going now, I feel like this scene with Alix and Walter is finally making the title click into place. I have my theories about who's lying and when and what's true and not but it's definitely a crazy swirly mess... Believe you me, I'm taking notes as I go (might need to get a big board and some yarn soon, lol).
