“I feel like a girl in a story, human and magical at the same time.”
— Margarita Engle
07.06.21 Morning in the South Park before the lab - some reading with a lovely view of Oxford. Starting The Fifth Season for a book club this Sunday - I'm very much in two minds about what I expect, there is such an unbelievable amount of hype around this series that I'm almost sure to be disappointed; but also I'm hesitant because I've tried reading The City We Became, thinking that I'd be sure to love it based on the reviews, but ended up DNFing it with a shrug. (I know a lot of people love it, but it just wasn't for me.) Well, I'll try to set all that aside and just see what I think of this one!
No safety. No food. No aid. No water. No healthcare. No education. Is this what it means to live? Is this what world accept as life?
If a group of animals were trapped, starved, and cut off from the world like this, people would be outraged. But because it's us—human beings—somehow, the world looks away.
These are unbearable days. Everything feels heavy. Each hour presses on my chest like I’m being suffocated.
Basic survival has become nearly impossible. Bread—just bread—now costs over $25 a day to make.
We are not asking for luxury. We are begging for life.

You discovered that your house is haunted, but instead of fleeing you decided to profit. Bleeding walls? Collect for bloodbank. Rodents of Unusual Size? Butchered and sold. Ectoplasm? Glowstick factory. You call a family meeting to discuss brainstorm ideas for the other manifestations.
