Me: I feel kinda guilty about posting that salty video yesterday... maybe I was too harsh...

Ducks: "people will wear bikinis
people who really should think twice about it"

Me: IT'S WAR

Thoughts so far 😅

Hooked_on_books You are so hate reading at this point! “An email would have had a purpose!” 😂 You crack me up. 3mo

RaeLovesToRead @Hooked_on_books Haha 😅 It's not terrible (I'll probably give it 3 stars), but it is NOT a fun reading experience. This book BADLY needs an editor. Clearly I just love suffering 🤣 3mo

Hooked_on_books Several years ago I tackled Infinite Jest with a Litsy buddy read group, which is the only way I could‘ve gotten through it. I‘m proud that I finally read it, but I really didn‘t enjoy it, so I feel like I understand where you‘re at! 3mo

RaeLovesToRead @Hooked_on_books Infinite Jest is on my list 😅😅 (see post below calling for assistance) I expect I will hate it. A friend recommended it, but it's the same friend who recommended House of Leaves so the trust isn't there 🤣 3mo

slategreyskies Okay, I finally watched your video! Omg yes, it could‘ve been an email! 🤣 3mo

Three pages of just listing types of sandwiches, desserts, cocktails, and artificial additives. Whyyyyy? 😩

RaeLovesToRead I KNOW RIGHT 3mo

RaeLovesToRead But the lists are not as bad as HoL 3mo

RaeLovesToRead And at least they aren't upside for NO REASON 3mo

Leniverse @RaeLovesToRead The lists were definitely not my favourite part of HoL. But I wouldn't mind a bit of upside down at this point. Might as well. Might relieve the monotony. 😆 3mo

MicheleinPhilly *sits in the corner smiling smugly* Glad I got out as soon as I could! 3mo

Leniverse @MicheleinPhilly 😂 Yes, you did the wise thing by taking one look and bailing. After 200 pages I feel invested. Trying not to think about how that leaves 800 pages to go 😵 3mo

MicheleinPhilly If I had a physical copy I‘d probably try harder but as it‘s on my Kindle and cost a buck or two it‘s “Outta sight, outta mind!” 3mo

RaeLovesToRead Don't miss out on the Creek-listing action later on 3mo

These books.

Regency Rae is not impressed.

All Fours is brilliantly written, but I wouldn't recommend reading it if you are a woman over 30.

Ducks is samey, samey, samey, and every time I pick it up I start thinking of all the other ways I could be spending my time instead.

BUT I REFUSE TO BE DEFEATED.

DaveGreen7777 Are you saying “Ducks” is not all it‘s quacked up to be?!? 🦆 3mo

RaeLovesToRead @DaveGreen7777 Look into the eyes of manly, Regency Rae, Dave. Because that's the expression I'm giving you right now 😐 3mo

DaveGreen7777 @RaeLovesToRead 😂😂😂 Regency Rae is not pleased! 😱 (and although she‘s not pictured, I‘m sure Pickles is judging me right now, too! 🙀) 3mo

julesG 🤣🤣🤣 3mo

RaeLovesToRead @DaveGreen7777 Regency Pickles has no thoughts on puns, but if she did I'm sure she'd back me up. Probably. 3mo
