thoughts while reading

p5: yeah no kidding
p15: i wondered that! i knew there was
no rosemary
in We Were Liars
p21: this family physically hurts me with all their emotional masking
p22: please don’t get addicted
p23: there is literally no pleasing harris
p25: yuhuh what did i say. 16 is way too young to have no one watching you
p50: it’s probably meant to be because of the codeine that
she sees rose
p55: carrie and cadence are kindred spirits, and not completely in a good way
p67: pfeff is totally the one she crushes on
p79: two single guys, three and a half single girls. i can almost taste the potential drama
p92: $100 BOOK VOUCHER?? heck yes!!
p151: don’t tell me
she’s hallucinating the boys too
p163: isn’t this the story about locke from The Cruel Prince? 
p169: i knew something like this would happen
p175: erm not quite the twist i was expecting

p179: gosh bess is brave, i’d be too terrified to talk to my sibling like that if they had carrie’s issues in case they spiralled and offed themselves. maybe it’s because she’s the youngest so she doesn’t quite understand the seriousness of this situation beyond her own feelings. i’m not saying bess is wrong to say something, i just couldn’t do it
p196: pfeff was never gonna give you what you need, not when he either has a very low opinion of himself or just doesn’t care
p201: really REALLY not what i was expecting
p206: omg it’s agggtm all over again
p220: OH
p247: nooo not
pfeff haunting her now too!
p263:
IT WAS CARRIE WHO KILLED HIM???
p273:
it was HARRIS who moved the board!
