To Paradise by Hanya Yanagihara
3.0

wow i’m finally done.

this book was a roller coaster.
i started reading it because A Little Life was so brilliant. it made me cry in ways i didn’t think was possible. and i wanted the same. but i didn’t get that.

i think this book is about fear. and what people do in response to fear. this doesn’t invoke tears though, only a type of harrowing sadness that requires long breaks between reading the text. is this a good discomfort? i’m not sure.
