When one is in love, one always begins by deceiving one's self, and one always ends by deceiving others. That is what the world calls a romance.

This book was REALLY fucked up, but I don't know if it's in a good or bad sense, because even I didn't figure it out myself. Basically, this was the first "old" book in my life and of course booktok made me read it. It was very interesting to say the least.
