The Sun Also Rises 5,869 Posted September 29, 2023 Literally impossible for me, so:Β Honeymoon, Ride (if we include the monologue, this is no 1 for me), The Grants, Cruel World, NFR (best opening lines), Born to Die White Dress, Love, Kill Kill, Text BookΒ If I reallyyyyy had to rate them it would probably be in the written order, but realistically it changes too often for me to do a top 10Β 3 Quote The cicadas in the sunset are your guide Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
