I wanted to get an impression if this book, and I am still interested in it, but I currently cannot find the time or patience for the meandering narration. If it wins the Booker prize, I will definitely get back to it.

This is a really well-done book.

"Matchbox sign" is still my favorite horrifying horror story I have ever read.

Fascinating! And as a lay person in science and history I'm grateful for the level of explanation that the author goes for.

I am enjoying this way more than I expected.

While reading this book, I am reminding myself that jealousy is really just pain because you're missing something that other people have. I am jealous of these characters, and I would really like a relationship this real and honest one day.

This book is brilliant.

I am loving this book. It's so immersive, and although it's not perfect and little things keep throwing me off (...that is not how people wrote in the 1600s....), I want to keep reading and I'm enjoying it more than I have enjoyed any books for a while.
