Už dlho som neprečítala knihu s takými ohromne trefnými a výstižnými citátmi, ako Ripe, čo som akosi od súčasnej literatúry nečakala. Kniha stvorená ako pre mňa, je totiž o mladej žene, ktorú neustále požiera čierna diera, jej depresia a úzkosť, a aj napriek tomu sa snaží prežiť v súčasnom svete poznačenom patriarchálnou mantrou, kapitalistickým zdieraním a individualistickým prístupom k životu. Názov každej kapitoly je jedno slovíčko či výraz s hlavnými a vedľajšími definíciami, moje staré dobré lingvistické ja to veľmi potešilo a inšpirovalo hľadať významy iných fráz, ktoré sa vyskytujú v mojom každodennom živote. Myslím si však, že viac vám o tejto knihe povedia moje obľúbené citáty:
*We are digital witnesses to each other’s tragedies.
*A single choice made with the best intentions can become a terrible life.
*Maybe our lives are the lies we choose to tell each other
*There are moments in which a certain level of pain is chosen in order to avoid another, deeper pain.
*You can convince yourself of anything and keep on pretending for as long as you live.
*Love is just as painful as its absence.
