We love when life is lifing ❤ im rereading the neapolitan quartet via audio extra chaotically by going out of order but it’s still hitting because spiraling is still spiraling 🙃 love seeing your face light up as soon as you picked it up to talk about it going “I GET IT NOW” 😌

hahaha the very long winded thoughts 🫡
ahhh i'm actually thinking of picking up Territory of Light! glad you got along well with the prose i wish i had gotten along more with the Regel! i thought it was just fine and found it hard to read in format as an e-ARC. maybe if i had a physical copy, it would've fleshed out a lot better moving between time and letters. loved to see you had such a hearty reading month!

you’re the only other person i’ve seen read the last sane woman!! you are so right about the formatting of the e-arc, i thought maybe it was just my e-reader but the text did not fit on the page lmao. i can definitely see how it wouldn’t be for everyone either way though
The Last Sane Woman sounds right up my alley. It’s funny, I’ve just started to think about starting the 2nd book of the Neapolitan quartet because I never finished the first one!

can’t recommend either of those enough!! the 2nd book is much better than the first and i think you’d be fine without having finished the first one to be honest
life really has been life-ing recently huh

more than ever bestie 🥲
great video. i'm gonna have to give cusk a shot. i'm on the last of the neapolitan quartet. the hbo adaptation is also worth the watch, very well done.

thanks for tuning in!! i’m seriously considering watching the adaptation which i usually don’t do!!
I really enjoyed the Neapolitan quartet too. You may also enjoy the HBO series, they did a really good job with it.
