Status Updates From Büyülü Dağ

Never has a book made it so hard for me to acclimatize myself with its mechanisms. I'm trusting Thomas Mann is going somewhere with this pace, or lack thereof, but my hope is slowly dissipating. Nothing yet had grabbed me, nor anything is urging me to stay. I'm living on a prayer that these bland characters will pick up some flavor in a few chapters, like when you learn to season your meals from watching your mom.

Delightful!
