Edgy, violent boys. Improbable and wild events. It's giving problematic sports anime you keep watching despite literally everything about it.

I definitely should have read the trigger warnings. You really have to suspend your disbelief with this one.

hope was a dangerous, disquieting thing, but he thought perhaps he liked.

Foi muito estranho ler a tradução pt-br pela primeira vez, e não posso dizer que foi uma experiência boa nesse ponto. Tem erros mas, principalmente, muitas traduções não fizeram sentido, algumas por serem frases extremamente toscas (quando no original são frases bem mais sensíveis e importantes), enquanto outras por serem palavras que ninguém nunca fala ou sequer sabe o significado.
De resto, continua sendo meu livro queridinho. Não tem palavras que expliquem como eu amo essa história e como ela é importante pra mim, e cada vez que leio fico mais grata de ter os foxes na minha vida.

You just had to be there (tumblr 2013). I can't rate it or defend the absolute nonsense within it, but I also have reread it 3 times. At its core, there is a small, traumatized man whose ranks a fictional, uber-violent version of lacrosse over his own life. Check trigger warnings because too many apply! This author has never read the DSM and it shows, so take it all with a grain of salt and turn your brain off.

This book is bad and troubling in many ways and I can't recommend it but I had to know why everyone is so obsessed with it and I can definitely see why it's compelling....more thoughts to come

Giving fanfiction. The writing was so bland. For some reason, I'm gonna keep going and read the next one? 

Edit: [Was previously 2.5 stars. Changing to 3.5]. Rereading this knowing the characters better makes it 100% better. I haven't thought about anything else for two weeks. Anyway.

Completely unhinged but so self-aware that it’s impossible not to love.
