I really enjoyed being inside the MC head - loved her thought processes and the way she expressed herself was fantastic. I enjoyed the stream of consciousness and the way dialogue was presented.

You say that you support me in participating or not participating in these strange, bar baric, cult-y rituals, which I have become susceptible to in the past, because I have wanted to belong at the expense sanity, and well-being. You say that of my you appreciate the level of detachment I've been able to cultivate in relation to something so contentious, and cruel, given the pain I clearly carry around inclusion, and exclusion, and having friends. You say that you're proud of me, and of who I am, and of the person that I've be come, and am becoming. You say that you honor me, and all of the choices that I make, and am going to make. Then you em phasize that you're incredibly proud to be with a woman who thinks, and feels, and explores things to such great depths, and with such discernment and compassion."
