an interesting collection of stories which look at how prevalent moral decay is within society, whether that is through supernatural hallucinations, the hallucinations of grandeur, or just plain old nervous breakdowns (hehe).

we all come from nothing and in the end, we are all nothing — to me, this is both the thesis and antithesis of 'play it as it lays'. a sparsely written, somewhat morbid look at the vacuous nature of our lives, joan didion is an expert with her words. though i enjoyed reading it, i don't think i would have the heart to ever revisit this novel.

it's so jarring to read prose that is so flagrant in its brevity but i'm so fascinated at how with each sentence, i don't feel like i'm missing anything. those short, clipped sentences give me all the information i need. being able to write like this is a real talent ohmygosh.

after having read three emily henry books, i can say with certainty that there are two ends to the spectrum of her male characters. this also means that as a reader, you pledge allegiance to one side or the other. there are alex nilsen girls and there are miles novak girls. gus everett falls towards the alex nilsen side of the spectrum. i, too, am an alex nilsen girl. though i appreciated miles and he grew to becoming the right person for daphne, i will always be an alex nilsen girl. with that out of the way... funny story was a quick, fun read. i was glad to see that some of the side characters got a little more screentime. i do, however, wish the fights lasted a little longer so the payoff of the big and emotional confession would feel more earned.

i've this totally irrational hate for Peter and Petra… but especially Petra. Like, seriously—who breaks up with someone on a Post-it? And then just casually steals someone else’s fiancé? It was so random and messed up
