Round 1
In the first year of the Thirty-Third Dynasty, when He came to the planet where I was born and made of it a wasteland for glory's sake, my ten-times-great-grandfather's king and lover, Alekso Undying, built on the ruins of the gods who had lived before Him Alectelo, the City of Endless Pearl, the Bride of Szayet, the Star of the Swordbelt Arm, the Ever-Living God's Empty Grave. He caught fever and filled that grave, ten months later.
-The Stars Undying, Emery Robin
Jack Torrance thought: Officious little prick.
-The Shining, Stephen King
This is how I kill someone.

Title: The Initial Insult
Author: Mindy McGinnis
Series or standalone: series
Publication year: 2021
Genres: fiction, mystery, thriller, horror, contemporary, retelling, suspense
Blurb: Tress Montor knows that her family used to mean something...until she didn't have a family anymore. When her parents disappeared seven years ago while driving her best friend home, Tress lost everything. She might still be a Montor, but the entire town shuns her now that she lives with her drunken, one-eyed grandfather at what locals refer to as the White Trash Zoo, a wild animal attraction featuring a zebra, a chimpanzee, and a panther, among other things. Felicity Turnado has it all: looks, money, and a secret that she's kept hidden. She knows that one misstep could send her tumbling from the top of the social ladder, and she's worked hard to make everyone forget that she was with the Montors the night they disappeared. Felicity has buried what she knows so deeply that she can't even remember what it is...only that she can't look at Tress without having a panic attack. But she'll have to look; Tress has a plan. A Halloween costume party at an abandoned house provides the ideal situation for Tress to pry the truth from Felicity, brick by brick, as she slowly seals her former best friend into a coal chute. With a drunken party above them and a loose panther on the prowl, Tress will have her answers...or settle for revenge.

Tress Montor knows that her family used to mean something—until she didn’t have a family anymore. When her parents disappeared seven years ago while driving her best friend home, Tress lost everything. She might still be a Montor, but the entire town shuns her now that she lives with her drunken, one-eyed grandfather at what locals refer to as the “White Trash Zoo,” – a wild animal attraction featuring a zebra, a chimpanzee, and a panther.
Felicity Turnado has it all – looks, money, and a secret that she’s kept hidden. She knows that one misstep could send her tumbling from the top of the social ladder, and she’s worked hard to make everyone forget that she was with the Montors the night they disappeared. Felicity has buried what she knows so deeply that she can’t even remember what it is�� only that she can’t look at Tress without having a panic attack.
But Tress has a plan. A Halloween costume party at an abandoned house provides the ideal situation for Tress to pry the truth from Felicity – brick by brick – as she slowly seals her former best friend into a coal chute. With a drunken party above them, and a loose panther on the prowl, Tress will have her answers – or settle for revenge.

"Because I don’t belong here. This is another misleading phrase that usually comes before a long list of woes, damages that have been done to a person—and yes, I have those."
- Ribbit Usher, The Last Laugh by Mindy McGinnis
(Now, this one's a pretty wild ride. Not many made it out alive. But it all came together. 4/5)

When the pain originates with someone who is gone, it’s your own memory that hurts you.

I decided to take a photo of the book I rated the highest in each month so far this year. Tell me you're hyper fixating without telling me you're hyper fixating.
The January book *would* be Leviathan Wakes if I didn't include rereads and March's book has the same rating as Abaddon's Gate, but I felt like I needed a different book instead. So...this could have been 5 books from The Expanse series and a children's graphic novel. 😬
