Take notes! On the books you read or on the theory papers you read. You might not think you need to but you will end up using them so much more than you think, especially for the bigger assignments like the theory essay. #BSUENG490

I found her transformation to horse to be very interesting to read and reading about her emotions and the rage that she felt. #BSUENG490

Things seem to be pretty calm right now, and I fear that's going to change... #BSUENG490

crazy that the first words to says to him are 'Dad'. #BSUENG490

I'm understanding her fetish to metal and to cars given her accident, but I don't quite get why she's killing everyone... #BSUENG490

Yeah this is an interesting movie for sure. Honestly he deserved that. #BSUENG490

Yess, this was so interesting! #BSUENG490
I really like that Binti’s mother was the first person to answer her call. At the start of the novel Binti thinks to herself that she will be disowned by her parents by leaving, but her mom proves her wrong. #BSUENG490

Esme's little comments about things Donna should do around the house "when she has an hour" as if Donna isn't already struggling is infuriating. #BSUENG490

The first story was definitely interesting to read and try to understand. I really liked the second story, I love when she went off on Jude at the end, like yessss! #BSUENG490

The first story made me uneasy and uncomfortable. The comparison between birds and the girls that the narrator was talking to was interesting. #BSUENG490

I'm definitely going to be reading the next two novelas in the series. I've never really read anything like this. #BSUENG490

I am not a big sci-fi reader ever, but I was really invested in the story and the protagonist. The pacing of this story was also done really well I think, while still giving us really important worldbuilding. #BSUENG490

I'm getting whiplash from Cassie's decisions. Make it stop please. #BSUENG490

I am so curious to know how Cassie will end up, she keeps having slip-ups and I feel like it won't be long before the friend group realizes that she is not Lexie. #BSUENG490

The friend group is giving The Secret History vibes. Something about Justin to me is throwing me off, though I can't really put my finger on why... #BSUENG490

As I was reading this book it felt like the beginning of a crime/thriller tv show or movie which I was weirdly enjoying. I could find myself enjoying the book more and really picturing the characters. #BSUENG490

To me the ending was a bit confusing, I understand Ada coming to take control of her life and accepting herself. However, the abrupt sort of 'ending' to Asughara was unexpected. #BSUENG490
October 1, 2025 at 1:12 PM
Asughara is becoming much more complex which is very interesting to see. We have seen her as this mad or angry 'hunter' but now we see her connecting with more human emotions like sadness. We also see how this starts to affect Ada.
