The Awakening by Kate Chopin: The Classic That Deserves Its title of a Classic 5🌟

I'm speechless and doesn't have the capacity to write another long yap review because THIS BOOK JUST HAS SUCH NUMEROUS SUBSTANCE AND SO MANY THINGS TO TALK ABOUT, NOW I GET WHY COLLEGES PUT THIS AS A REQUIRED READING ASSIGNMENT, THIS IS LIKE SO GOOD AND SO IN DEPTH.


This is a book where an entire character is focused on and Edna Pontellier is another one of those characters where i can consider it as the 'morally gray characters that highly acclaimed classic books focuses about because realistically speaking, not every single person in the world is a good person' such as Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov and The Catcher in the Rye by J. D. Salinger


She's selfish she doesn't care about her husband and her children the only person that she thinks about is herself and incredibly narcissistic, self-serving, only makes bad decisions and a spoiled brat. And that "awakening" we're talking about? Not a good awakening. This book really makes you rude for the other characters because all the other characters are just way better people than Edna and the entire book itself is complex and every scenario in it has its own distinct deep meaning and a message to take home with..

King of Envy by Ana Huang: The One That Got the Shallow Treatment 1🌟

I just read this book because of the immense amount of hype that it gets not tiktok hype, but more of a marketing promotional hype because this book has a damn viewing party and an original song complementary to this release, and i'm here to judge whether those money spent could have been way better spent on actually writing a better book. AND SO PERHAPS I WAS CORRECT Chapter 2 and we already have Ayana lusting over this new character named "Vuk" like....ALREADY Well Ana Huang said that this book can be read as a standalone so i'm going to damn read itt, as a standalone. And God Damn, chapter 2 and they're already lusting over each other TALK ABOUT LACK OF IDEAS PEOPLE. And Vuk acts like a clingy turtle you just found at a freshwater location because his personality only boils down to knowing every single information, every single conversation, and every single event that happens in Ayana's life. He's SOOOOOOO ooohhhh myseterious, oooooh stealty, ooooooooh...

I Who Have Never Known Men by Jacqueline Harpman: Limited to reach its fullest potential 4🌟

This book pretty much reminds me of another book titled What Good Girls Do by Jonathan Butcher aaand that book pretty much is way better than this, because if you think about this idea enough, this is just SAD, so SAD and DEPRESSING and most importantly SAD, but i feel like there are some limiting factors that could made this book reach its fullest potential because the situation that the main character is placed in is probably as worse than what the main character in What Good Girls Do have to endure in her life but the fact that the men in here just...doesn't make sense at all is very limiting for the novel itself because them LITERALLY not doing anything except for 'intervening when the offhand chance that someone gets violent' is a clear indication that the author doesn't want to explore the themes of violence and insanity in which when one is put into this situation WOULD DEFINITELY have violent or insane tendencies but Nopppppp this book doesn't engage with...

The Bighead by Edward Lee: Shockingly Only For Shock Value 1🌟

If i were going to tell you what is a book that is just pure blasphemy, i will tell you this one. There is a Jesus character that basically watches the priest (Alexander the celibate) get raped so uhh. Ya, a slander the christianity and filled with one of the most gore, vile, disgusting things you will ever read. Jesus in here is like your typical teenager who just discovered that swear words exist so they just use it whenever they can in their daily vocabulary. There is also two characters who are kids or i forgot, maybe just look like kids and their names are Dicky and Balls. Yes that is their names, you mothers will think that their parents hated them when they were born in this world because who names their kid like that. (They're also assholes btw, i think the two of them are one of the cause for a rape scene idk?? I kind of forgot which one because of the amount of rape scenes in here). There are also nuns in here whose entire existence is to just rape ppl, another delightful...
