i am convinced the modern dark academia girlies have never read this, or they don’t understand it or they choose to ignore the themes and message in order to stick with the ✨aesthetic*✨ 

a modern masterpiece tbh. every character needs so much therapy it’s almost painful to think of. yet the writing and story itself is so rich and well constructed, i was always absolutely enthralled when reading this. 


*(well, if your aesthetic is sad lonely inebriated smelly** pretentious fucks then by all means you do you)

**(come on you know they were all nasty by the end there. everyone was drunk and high and sick and ate terribly and smoked and sweat their days away)
