so taylor went on stephen colbert on december 10, 2025. she was asked if she listened to audiobooks, and she said yes, constantly. then she says:
taylor: so it’s always a different one, as soon as I finish one, I start a new but I’ll tell you the elements. Is it ok if I just -- the elements of what I’m looking for is like, you know, all the elements of like Daphne du Maurier, “Rebecca,” that book? Right, so if it’s like if you’ve got like an old rambling shambles old British mansion covered in moss or ivy, and there’s like a mysterious relationship, and he may not be what he seems, and there’s like a murder that has happened in the past, but you hear whispers of it. There’s the idea of a ghost or an actual ghost. If you present me with a plot line where there’s like a family compound on an island off the coast of Maine, there’s secrets in this family, right? This brother, like, what’s going on with him? Why don’t we know where he’s been for 10 years? Why did he just show up? Do you know what I mean? If there’s a marriage and the marriage isn’t what it seems, and it seems like this dude is like clearly like why are you with him? He’s horrible to you. Oh, plot, twist, unreliable narrator… SHE’S the psycho.
yes we been knew she likes to force people to question her narratives, but it's interesting to think about now, given the events of july 3rd. the idea of a relationship that may not "be as it seems", and something that you "hear whispers of" but what really happened is never confirmed. and there's someone, "a brother", that's been away for 10 years (kk), and now he just shows up? everyone is wondering why because it throws off what the reader/public thinks they know.
she says "there's a marriage and the marriage isn't what it seems," and everyone is questioning why she's with this person. OH plot twist, SHE'S the unreliable narrator -- which is something I think she loves being for many reasons and obviously she knows how to make a clip that people will point to in the future. all with a straight face.
if you think about it in terms of storytelling, she's a masterful painter, and i can't wait for her to 'finish' (it will never be completely done) this masterpiece.
