Zendaya, Josh O’Connor, and Mike Faist for The New York Times

“We discussed a lot about how we could flesh out the basic point that the triangle is not just two people after one, but the corners touch together all the time. You’re not jealous of your girlfriend or your boyfriend. You’re jealous because you’re not chosen by one and you’re losing the other.” — Luca Guadagnino, about ‘Challengers’ for The New York Times

#I've been In A State since last night #someone come see it again with me tonight it's that good #challengers

Is there going to be another book after TSC?? I was under the impression that this one was just for the author to exorcise her lingering inner demons re: Jean and then that would be that, but I would love it if she mentioned putting out another book...

yes! she mentioned it on twitter and here

obsessed with jean’s colorful insults/descriptions so here’s a compiled list of them in order

you arrogant fool (abby)

you imbecile (kevin)

your ball-battered brain (kevin)

you feckless child (kevin)

those clowns (trojans)

pet goalkeeper (andrew)

the tiny bastard (neil) [LMFAO]

kevin’s pet monster (andrew)

the sunshine court [derogatory]

wholesome in an unsettling, unhealthy way (the trojans)

unhinged optimist (renee)

some plump shrink (bee)

that creepy little goalkeeper andrew minyard [PLEASE i was fucking DEAD he has no idea how funny he is]

you tedious malcontent (neil) [probably my favorite one]

an abominable cockroach (neil)

the wayward child (neil) [jesus christ he is not taking it easy on neil]

andrew’s twin

worthless trash bags (foxes, past tense)

a rabid little fox (neil) [hey. remember when neil described andrew as a ‘rabid goalkeeper’ ???]

annoyingly easy to look at (jeremy)

strange and misguided (the trojans)

the cruelty of these nonstop temptations (kevin, renee, jeremy)

the sunshine court [less derogatory]

“I was hoping he would bite his tongue off in the fall and save us both some grief in the long run.” (lucas)

wretched beast (gr****n)

your ignorant mouth (lucas)

“Your apologies are as useful as perfume on a frog.” (lucas)

neil, being the person he was,

you ignorant child (neil)

miserable wretch (neil) [giving his everything to neil’s insults]

ok that’s all. unless i missed some. and if i did you have to add them it’s just law

#love this ball of grumpiness to bits!#also tangentially to one of these:#when kevin said like “some of them [the trojans] you like” 👀#when did you discuss this and in what terms #do tell us more #@ nora we need a flashback #foxhole #should I change the tag?

I'm back, trying to to keep ask culture alive in 2024....ended up testing + for C19 this weekend so I read all of TSC starting 12 hours ago lol I really liked it! Jean getting some more depth is great, and I was glad to be back in Nora's sad boys universe for a bit of angst...wish it had a little more at the end but I guess that's what the fanfic is for!

hi! I'm glad you liked it. I'm with you that the end felt a bit abrupt, imo the optimal way to read her books is doing like a 3-day full immersion to read a whole series with no pauses. that way you also don't dwell too much on the plot since well... it is what it is lmao anyway, I can't wait to spend more time in jeremy's head in the next one (ones? idk)

#also sorry for the covid mate #the sunshine court spoilers #little talks
