Status Updates From Olive Kitteridge

Strout is a wonderful writer. Such acute observations of human relations and emotions. Done with the second story, moving on to the third soon.

Jeg er veldig god på å starte på bøker, og veldig dårlig på å fullføre bøker. Kanskje dette blir boken jeg leser ferdig?

I’m only a little ways further into the book than my last update, but I’m already regretting the half-hearted tone I used to describe the book before. I feel like something clicked for me in the most recent chapter or two and I’m now finding the book quite affecting. It’s definitely a lot about loneliness, aging, and the difficulty of relating to others. It’s honestly kind of cutting.
