DNF. Too enraging. Too repetitive.

I quit. It couldn’t pull me in. Cozy probably isn’t for me.

It seems almost foolhardy to pick it up but I enjoyed the show so much! The language isn’t very complicated, which makes the length seem less intimidating. I wish I had read it as a teenager though, with my long hours in the library killing time.

I sold it. My husband dragged me to a reading and Neil Gaiman read it well so I went out and bought it. I sold it to the Used Book Superstore so someone else could enjoy it. I don’t think Abandoned is exactly the right shelf. It couldn’t hold my attention enough to finish but I don’t think it’s bad. Abandon is when I actively disliked the book.

I’m getting this in the mail tomorrow. I’m beyond excited. I don’t read biographies and I haven’t read Jobs, because I’m not interested in a jerk with good design sense that revolutionized personal computing and consumer electronics. Elon Musk, however, is just the right level of weird and works on interesting stuff to make him fascinating. Plus he drives people crazy and might destroy Twitter. Good.

This book is not exactly a page turner but I learn something from it every single day and have already successfully applied some of it.

I try to do 2 chapters a day - the original BG chapter and Warren Buffet’s commentary that updates his advice. I find it pretty easy to research anything I don’t understand.
