#not offense but i honestly do find john's family weird and unpleasant even knowing that they're very much innocent victims in the story#like i'm sorry for not hating the extroverted and superfical teen girl who don't know how to handle a very hardcore tragedy in a mature way#but idk i just feel like a lot of her very innocent actions are treating at those manipulative bitch moments and it's just like...#treated*#gillian i know you're talking about themes of women violence and all of that but not everything a 17yo girl do is inherently evil#like i'll take the overbearing girlfriend who try to bring me food before i take the kid who litterally stab her classmates tbh#btw i am still weirded out by how the book lowkey treated this as this semi-normal not like other girls moment#like this child inflicted a permanent disability on another child and the parents just moved her around to a new school#and it's never really adressed in the text just treated as part of her wild tomboy personality#like there's being a free spirit and there's being a danger to all the other grade schoolers#but i'm getting off topic#the possum watches sharp objets
