i am heading towards a reading slump at a velocity previously unknown to science but this shit gas

am i becoming litbro final boss.. perhaps

making the rare decision to dnf… this is just misery and repetition and ennui and i feel rotten reading it. I don’t disagree that there’s some great character work and psychological depth in this but i’m finding reading it quite miserable and have absolutely no drive to push myself through the last seventyish pages. Knew this was marmite and it’s not for me and that’s okay!
