Melissa is 50% done with The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires
I'm not sure I can finish this book - I'm listening to it in the car to work and the horror aspects are getting to me.

The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires

Melissa is 50% done with Bitter Greens
This book alternates between beautifully written passages to boring but all the time centers on violence towards women. The three characters stories are woven together but I've nearly forgotten the woman from the French court....

I'm half way through and still not sure about finishing. The physical violence, emotional abuse, and lack of a redeeming/redeemable character leaves me thinking I might shelve this book.

I am really struggling with her writing style. If I didn't have to read this book for a church Bible study I'd probably give up....

I'm reading this book so slowly because I need to hear what the author is saying. I've read and reread certain parts to ground myself before I get overwhelmed by the work.

Really, really amazing insight and reflects on faith, race, heritage, prayer, and the Creator's intensions for our relationships with each other, creation, and God.
