A Room of One's Own feels like such a daring piece from a time where Woolf hardly had access to all the literature we have today. But I think she makes something so incredibly clear that STILL exists as an issue today - a notable LACK of literature.

No a book I would ordinarily go for but it has been given to me by the hands of fate. But so far I am thoroughly enjoying. I do feel like I am quite far into the book while still anticipating the start of the twist though so I'm intrigued when that'll be introduced.

Not that I should feel the need to explain myself to my humble number of Goodreads friends (hello to you) but I’m spending less time on my phone and therefore spending more time thinking (never good). I also am looking at a very real prospect of independence very soon and would like to do as much healing as I can before I go to set myself up for a good life :)

This is giving me absolutely horrific flashbacks to an awful time 👹

I am now very much enjoying this narrative of betrayal. Well not enjoying but the writing is incredible so I’m also feeling angry and distraught

I get it a bit more now !!!!

Put this down for AGES as I’m struggling with the writing style a bit off putting. I’m not sure the psychological insight is there to be able to write a captivating stream of consciousness style, esp if you’re not going to use punctuation
