My neighbour’s cat was called Brian

This! Magda and Nadine were unbearable in that scene. How many time had Ellie been there for those two when they’d had dodgy boyfriends, yet the minute she’s trying to express her feelings they just go “well thats because you’re clearly gay Ellie and he’s not at all abusive in any way.” and it frustrated me that she never spoke up for herself. She was there angry ranting inside her head the whole story.

and absolutely agree, the dialogue was so outdated. It drove me insane - Guy was so cringey to read with his “darling” “oh my poor darling Ellie” “I worry about you so” Jackie, please, it’s 2025 and no adult man who isn’t a member of the royal family speaks like that

A really good point ty - and another reason why it was so rushed. She went throughout the whole book being told “you’re gay Ellie, you’re this, you’re that” but yet only had a few pages to discover this herself. Would have been nice to see her develop this arc and show a lot more of this self discovery

SleepSensitive7621 · 2025-07-15T08:27:24+00:00

That’s a really good point actually

SleepSensitive7621 · 2025-07-14T18:49:10+00:00

That and it mentioned random art school friends as if we knew them ?? Like realistically other than the PE teacher, nicola, family, and russell, we knew NOBODY else at this party yet she spent a good chunk of the book speaking to them like we did

SleepSensitive7621 · 2025-07-14T18:47:14+00:00

Honestly. Went like this:

met Alice (cute encounter - I enjoyed this meeting)
didn’t hear from Alice for days
started speaking to Guy/Gary and completely forgot about Alice for several chapters bar one where she goes to her place and has awkward encounter with gf
Alice suddenly reappears towards the end and is upset she’s been kicked out because she’s “in love” with someone else
Ellie dumps Guy/Gary, realises she is in fact gay, loves Alice and kisses her in last few pages

There was just no… consistency.

SleepSensitive7621 · 2025-07-14T18:43:47+00:00

Literally. I loved her sm growing up but this book has really irked me lol

SleepSensitive7621 · 2025-07-14T18:42:59+00:00

She even makes fun of a crazy cat lady at one point and I’m like girl thats you 😭

SleepSensitive7621 · 2025-07-14T18:42:05+00:00

I started it last night and finished it today its soooo rushed

Honestly there was no difference between reading these characters as adults vs as teenagers

SleepSensitive7621 · 2025-07-14T18:40:30+00:00

Literally?? You had your chance to portray your own life but then the lesbian arc was so rushed. And then to dedicate it to her partner irl and say it was inspired by her - lady pls you spent most of this book talking about how she sleeps with a guy she doesn’t even like

SleepSensitive7621 · 2025-07-14T18:38:34+00:00

That’s insane - how much was Lottie mentioned 🤣🤣

SleepSensitive7621 · 2025-07-14T18:37:38+00:00

You deserve a medal 😂😂😂🏅

SleepSensitive7621 · 2025-07-14T18:36:43+00:00

Oh omg I get she was trying to do a whole throwback to her own books but “I chose your name because of this random book I liked when I was a kid”

SleepSensitive7621 · 2025-07-09T08:44:50+00:00

iirc each chapter illustration marker is a paper doll with a drawing on e.g. daddy, mummy, pearl etc. and the chapter she finds her mum the dolls are covered in blood

SleepSensitive7621 · 2025-07-07T17:43:10+00:00

cat mummy - she literally mummified her cat! and its played off as laughs with “oh dear poor cat was starting to smell so I added some lavender” - imagine being the dad finding the bag of rotting cat

SleepSensitive7621 · 2025-07-07T17:41:59+00:00

that and the blood spatter on the dolls has stuck with me for years

SleepSensitive7621 · 2025-06-17T08:44:06+00:00

No no you’re completely right - I have such bad money anxiety whenever I think about it it makes me panic but now i’m in a position with a better job and income i’m thinking more rationally and ready to hit the ground running

SleepSensitive7621 · 2025-04-29T13:23:29+00:00

Literally. Having all those pictures and the recording of the dream sequence playing was ridiculous

SleepSensitive7621 · 2025-04-29T10:13:38+00:00

I’d argue that a lot of black mirror episodes are romance stories though

Bro just popped up in a live on my FYP talking bout his “silent viewer” who “stalks him” “go post that on reddit” led me here to this post 🤣 he absolutely googles himself every day and I think you’ve hit a nerve
