Devi looked past me and her expression softened. "Little Fela!" She brushed past me and gave Fela a hug. "You're all grown up!" She stepped back and held Fela at arm's length, looking over her appreciatively. "My lord, you look like a ten-stripe Modegan whore! He'll love it." Fela smiled and spun a little so the bottom of her dress flared. "It is nice to have an excuse to dress up every once and a while." "You should be dressing up on your own," Devi said. "And for better men than Ambrose."

Like, yeah, I kind of want to make out with the nebulous concept of channeling divine inspiration into the act of creating aesthetic wonder in the world! Sue me! I don’t trust anyone who doesn’t!
"Frankly, I'm thankful I didn't baptize any of you, except Crispus and Gaius, so that none of you can say you were baptized in my name! Oh yes, I did baptize the household of Stephanas, but no one else as far as I can remember."

"For me, I found the social commentary on feminism much more interesting than the [REDACTED [plot element serving as feminist commentary]] aspect. But, I thought the two paired together made for the perfect women's horror book. Here's a quote that really stuck with me."
"This book is a satire--the focus on white, cisgender, able, attractive, upwardly mobile, and university-educated women is intentional, and many of the views expressed herein are ironic and/or aggressively limited in scope in service to the narrative. I was not specifically writing with the goal to educate. If you are looking to reconsider the lens through which you view feminism and intersectional politics, there are countless better resources, one seminal title and personal favorite being Hood Feminism by Mikki Kendall. Read diversely and do it on purpose--publishing as an industry does not necessarily create the circumstances for incidental exposure. The arguments presented in this book are just theoretical starting points, if you, like me, like to ponder things.
Laura wears a fishing vest and holds her microphone directly in front of her face. Text onscreen over one shoulder reads "Part Three" and Richard Linklater's headshot is superimposed over the other.

If you do not live or work in Downtown L.A., avoid the area. Law enforcement will arrest individuals who break the curfew, and you will be prosecuted."

Screenshot from page 1 of a document: "Richard Linklater’s 2019 film adaptation of Where’d You Go Bernadette should be for the popular fiction girlies what Tim Burton’s 2007 film adaptation of Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street is for musical theater kids, which is to say it is toothless, humorless, kind of misogynistic, and willfully missing the point, and we all deserved better and basically everybody at least kind of senses it, but the context of the source material is necessary to properly explain why, and those of us who have that context should and will mad about it."

Screenshot: "One of the more than fifteen writers I spoke to for this piece told me that she’d met with Pelletier to discuss her finished book, but that Pelletier had urged her to develop an entirely different, as yet unwritten, story idea, complaining that “the problem with traditional publishing is that they just let writers write whatever they want, and they don’t even think about what the TikTok hashtag is going to be.” (Through her attorney, Pelletier said she didn’t recall any such conversation and that [begin highlight] “Entangled doesn’t rely heavily on hashtags when marketing books on TikTok.” [end highlight])"
