If you are looking to continue, ftr I was pleased with how book 3 paid off stuff from books 1-2, and then found books 4 and 5 to be a downgrade. Like, St. Aubyn remains Witty and Vicious throughout but is using those tools to convey stories that are not as interesting to me. I am baffled that book 4 got Booker shortlisted, out of all of them, maybe the judges that year were just super into midlife crises.... (spoilers he has a surprisingly run-of-the-mill midlife crisis in that one lmao)

But yeah - I knew Never Mind was gonna be your jam, mwahaha. That party has perhaps the most painstakingly constructed rancid vibes of anything I'd ever read, absolute nightmare (approving)
