4.5
This hit so hard.
A bleak, hopeful, upsetting ode to living, growing, yearning.
The definition of simmering female rage.
Extremely memorable
My copy is extremely annotated, here are some gems:
"The velocity with which she continued to speed toward death astounded her"
"I forsake not one thing, not one form of pleasure nor beauty. I will have it all, I will have everything this world can contain or else I will have nothing."
"Conflict-avoidant men, she thought, as eternal as the tide."
"It is possible to love a person, a place, a time, without wanting to remain there."
"They are 'Just Friends', a category even lower than ordinary acquaintances."
"It can't be possible to yearn for somebody this much and still not have them. But the bed remains empty."
"If she stops concentrating, she fears, she will levitate, nothing left to anchor her to this earth"
