Memes for when you are reading Harrow the Ninth for the first time and have no idea what is going on:

i love being part of a fandom with so many smart people who can predict plot twists and make connections in the text, BUT

i need a little representation for those of us who had a blank screen with a loading bar running in our brains for the entirety of Harrow the Ninth!!!

bonus for Nona:

Harrow: * to herself, writing the post-it note, after stashing some bread in the drawer* Harrow: I'm putting the romance, in necromancer.

i may be the last person on this webbed site to put this together but… that “ah, ah, ah” thing that Nona/Alecto and Judith/Varun do a few times? like this?

and this?

and this one?

and this last one?

…do you think it has anything to do with… this?

I don’t know why I’ve never zeroed in on this line before, but right after Gideon’s gotten Jeannemary out of the facility and is trying to figure out where to go?

“She had to get her to safety. She wanted her longsword and she wanted Harrow.”

I cannot get over how even in the middle of complete panic, when she needs safety her mind goes to her sword and to Harrow in the same breath.

Why Nona is an unreliable narrator: She's the soul of the Earth squashed into a human Barbie doll now living in a different body and also she has no memory of any of this happening

Why Harrow is an unreliable narrator: She lobotomized herself so she wouldn't remember the most significant person in her life and gets brain hemorrhages any time she remembers. She's also schizophrenic and haunted.

Why Gideon is an unreliable narrator: She mostly pays attention to swordfighting, hot women, and Harrow and ignores the rest.

@camgoloud you're SO RIGHT for this. I loved you anakin you were my brother vibes, because NOW he actually remembers enough to fight back with pop culture references

What if he ate Number 4 in the stoma and got shiny new powers out of it. WHAT THEN. It would be very tragic and very cool and very gay.

Still not over the time I saw someone reading Gideon the ninth and said (while they were reading the first section of Gideon trying to escape the Ninth) that the story seemed tailor made to transfer to a modern setting because it reminded them so much of someone trying to leave their small town.

And I don't mean this in a bad way but I literally haven't stopped thinking about that. Ah, yes. Gideon Nav, orphan in a dying small town trying desperately to join the Army so she can make something of her life and escape her highschool valedictorian nemesis. All good so far. And then she gets sent to a death game to appoint the new Supreme Court Justices. And dies. And then finds out her dad is George Washington and her mom did 9/11.

pleasures of the flesh tuesday

The Harrow feels are creeping up on me. I can sense them lurking in the shadows, watching and waiting. The urge to listen to whispers of The Locked Tomb (narrated by Moira Quirk) is growing. I fear I shan't be able to resist.
