I was having a hard time staying engaged with this book. It reminds me too much of Britney Spears’ recent memoir. It would be a good, light read for others but this is just not hitting for me

I Fell Through a Portal and into a Gargoyle's Arms

Dana Isaly

3.5

Library loan ran out and book is very tough to read even with trigger warnings. I am about halfway through and I get the gist I think. Super interesting read for those that want to understand how the men with podcasts and redditors perpetuate rape culture and understand why women would say “we choose the bear”.

This was an incredible book and I can’t believe I didn’t read it sooner. The plot was easy to follow but had a lot of complexity. The commentary about time, love, and life really touched me. This rocketed to the top of my 2025 reads.

The pacing was really slow and I felt like it was getting too bogged down with the characters, POV switching, and timeline changes. I felt like the plot barely moved.
