it definitely could have been condensed just a little because "no plot just vibes" isn't much of an exaggeration and i'm not sure how it managed to be 500+ pages long but i can enjoy a slow book when i like the writing. the ending did feel slightly anticlimactic but it was more bittersweet than anything else to me. not sure if i would recommend this because the it really is slow but i definitely enjoyed this!!

“But isn’t it wonderful,” she says “to be an idea?”
So this book wins the award for first book this year to make me cry. It has curled up in my brain (where I am sure it will stay) like the echoes of an idea, the secondhand mark, that Addie LaRue leaves behind.
I don’t think I’ll be forgetting this story or the multitude of feelings it evoked in me for a long time.
