i would’ve never read this by choice (the name would’ve sent me running in the opposite direction) but thanks to my “diverse” and “modern” uni course , it was required reading .. credit where credit is due , some parts of this book were rlly interesting & thought-provoking and i genuinely enjoyed reading it (the parts abt schizophrenia and chris’s thoughts on feminism especially) but the rest of it was dull and sooooo creepy😭 dick’s final letter is so much kinder than i would’ve put it if some random lady i met once wrote 250 pages of letters abt how she’s in love w me . strange and emotive but lots and lots of underlined quotes - “you are trying to find some way of living you believe in. i envy this” say it louder chris babes !!!
