Status Updates From Vita Nostra

Well that's weird

Increasing sense of ‘what on earth am I reading’, and increasingly intrigued.

I have no idea how I feel about this book. It’s a very interesting and engaging read, but it’s been 170 pages (out of 408) and neither myself or the characters know why they’re doing anything. It’s interesting, but at some point I need to have some idea WHY they are doing/learning this stuff.

"Here, at home, in warm comfort, life had no meaning. Whether you woke up at ten in the morning or at noon, whether you watched television, went for a walk in the park, or went to the theatre or attended a concert—none of it mattered; there was no point, a day was lived in vain, and one more day, and then a week."

it's been 44 ebook pages and alr things are hitting too close to home
