Picked up this book about the cruelty of the book world while trying to escape from the cruelty of the book world

I was going to read this before the book came out but now it's coming out in a week ...

Read the first 3rd on a plane. Will I read the rest on the plane back? If not, I will probably never finish.

A lot of my 5s are about to become 4.5s.

Was very excited to start this but the copy that I just bought from a bookstore has some kind of PRINTING ERROR where every fifth page is only HALF PRINTED and the bookstore doesn’t accept returns 🤔 a Halle Butlerian occurrence in and of itself

I think "palace intrigue" is like the best genre of novel, and this is really making me want to reread The Queen's Thief series for some reason.

I don’t see myself completing this any time soon but I might read bits of it here and there which is what giant nonfiction tomes are for anyway, right?

Thought i would like this more than I did and I just read something very similar so I may give up on it here… tbd

This is my Roman Empire

You may have noticed I’ve been starting a lot of books lately without finishing them. This is because my brain is broken.

Genuine question for the people: can anyone think of a memoir (not novel) by a MAN about going through a divorce?

I need to read Austen every six months or something bad happens

I’m already mad I spent money on this book (we’ll see if it turns around)

I need me an early-stage Jack Antonoff

I keep starting booksssss

Currently it’s giving “trying to meet the word count”

I’ve been putting off reading this bc I just know it will make me cry

Not sure how far into this I will get lol

This book just switched to first person… here we go

I have such a hard time with short story collections and I've also been doing poorly with my book club books but hoping I can lock in for my annual James Baldwin read

I’m really liking this book but I’m reading it so slowly and worried I’ll lose all my momentum

Tbh now that I work at a literary agency that actually has active clients I will probably never have time to read anything besides slim novellas again

need a quick fix
