So I finally picked up Kids in the Riot properly and I’m about a third of the way through and every page makes me more furious than the last haha
I got through it, but it’s an exasperating experience, punctuated by me literally saying “For fuck’s sake!” out loud at the book, and wanting to bang a few heads together. Obviously it’s easier to deal with knowing how things went eventually and are now, but bloody hell. I bookmarked a bunch of the best quotes, but so many of them are way too sad and srs so I’ll stick with daft stuff like that line from Roger that I posted lol. I’m full of admiration for fans who went through all that in real time!
Eventually the big heavy doors opened and Pete came walking towards us. He and Carl clocked each other and it was all smiles, and hugs and tears. It was great, exactly how you’d want it to be. They wanted some time on their own so they went to this fella Reg’s house nearby.

‘Wanted some time on their own’,eh? Understandable really – a month is a long time without when you’re young.
