June @alzabogirl.bsky.social · 17/07/2026This enhances it for me, knowing these stories had their own life before becoming a combined narrative, like Annelid/Leveret being reborn and layering their experience on other people. I’d think about them differently on their own No rule says your characters can’t Katamari ball through time 👹 150

June @alzabogirl.bsky.social · 12/07/2026Another entry in the BS (Bad Sex) Book Club 👹 Also a lot of tapping the “only we can be traitors” sign today 140
June @alzabogirl.bsky.social · 10/07/2026Catching up and I wonder if thoughts like these are from Annelid/Leveret, or if it’s a mix of them and the man they Quantum Leapt into, something sadly common across times (part of the records). Anyway a banger series of chapters. “Only we can be traitors” 👹 250

June @alzabogirl.bsky.social · 01/07/2026Kumiko’s letter is labeled as a WUBC entry, like the baseball massacre on Cinnamon’s computer. Does that mean anything? Erasing most of Kumiko’s agency at the end is a bummer. But this was a great book and fun to read with a group. Thanks to all for sharing! Stay clear of the revolving door 🐾 270

June @alzabogirl.bsky.social · 27/06/2026I realized there was another cut chapter back around chapter 24 or 25. It’s a conversation between Toru and Noboru Wataya through Cinnamon’s computer (!)

June @alzabogirl.bsky.social · 21/06/2026This book is great but I wouldn’t mind if we had 2x as many May Kasahara letters. “Thinning hair reminds me life fading from the body. Which is awesome” 🐾 170
June @alzabogirl.bsky.social · 20/06/2026That was a banger. I think I highlighted 6 or more haunting thoughts. So sad to see horrible shit and think “this should feel like a different world but it doesn’t” I have to remind myself this all relates to man astral projecting with a baseball bat 🐾 160

June @alzabogirl.bsky.social · 14/06/2026I caught up on everything at once, from Brick to Mr. Brightside 🐾 But Toru’s emotions are too subdued for a song, except when he’s alone in a well and imagining an argument he had 5 years ago. The well must be like taking a shower in terms of bringing up embarrassing past events, but 100x worse 170
June @alzabogirl.bsky.social · 10/06/2026“Did you ever hear the tragedy of the shit monkeys of Shit Town. I thought not” I loved not only the fable and the attack but Toru’s feeling in the aftermath. Noboru poisons you like looking at Twitter 🐾 2110
June @alzabogirl.bsky.social · 09/06/2026We clown on Toru for being passive and unsure about anything in his life, but I relate to soothing yourself by making tomato sauce and hoping your problems disappear in the meantime 🐾 2170
