God she is unbearable, isn't she?! I thought it was just me lol. What little I've seen of her she comes across very pretentious without reading anything obscure in the slightest. She gives off - 'Oh, I'm just reading this really obscure author... you've probably not even heard of him.... he's sort of unknown, but I did an English literature degree... yeah, his name is Oscar Wilde.' - vibes.
When she recommended 'Crime and Punishment' as a book to read to 'be pretentious but in an impress your English teacher kind of way' I thought she was having a laugh. Why would an English teacher be impressed by such a basic commonly read, well-known classic? Next she'll say read Pride and Prejudice to impress people and be ~tres pretentious tee hee~
And she's constantly recommending Camus, The Stranger. That dogshit book... Does she think it makes her look smart or something? lol.
