Lori is starting The Secret History
66% in and I just can’t keep going. Sure the prose is lovely. I’m not connecting to any of the characters. There’s a lot of ‘tell’ instead of ‘show’ happening. It’s really starting to feel like a slog at this point. If I’m going to invest time in a longer book like this, I’ll need to be getting much more enjoyment out of it bottom line.

Whyyyy didn’t I heed the warnings in so many reviews? 😩 It really is true that the book starts off so strong and then just goes downhill. I’m literally 80% done and still considering DNFing. I’ll probably just slog through. Such a shame because I enjoyed Mr Magic very much.

Ok actual what the F moment… you absolutely cannot put a pt in seclusion because they got naked and smeared jelly on themselves. Why would you depict this? Whyyy? 😩

Oh I know they did not just have that nurse say that she only hands out some meds and then reads for the rest of her shift 😂

It’s too much! It’s just too much! 🤣😂🤣

Also. Can’t help it. Did that nurse just say she doesn’t know if anything in particular happens to the doors if they lose power?! Stop it right now.

Aw come on now we have a patient in seclusion and restraints who apparently is left completely alone?! With nobody observing for safety. Please tell me there are at least SOME examples in this book of reality. This is getting ridiculous 😩

A psych patient who’s inpatient with knitting needles?! Knitting a SCARF?! 🤦🏼‍♀️

Alright alright so I’ve resigned to the idea that part of the entertainment value in this reading experience will have to be in pointing out the blatant examples of absolutely zero research done. That’s just how this is going to go and I’m fine with it 😂

Ok ok I’m back because excuse me are we to believe that a Doctor will actually be staying the entire night on this psych unit? Bwa hahaha ha ha ha.. hahahahaha. Ahem, excuse me.

I’m wanting to love this book since I clearly work in psych. So I’m going to keep rolling! But I am starting to ask myself if I’ll enjoy the topic since it’s near and dear or if I’ll just be distracted by my own scrutiny!

Just have to make a note while reading cause I can’t help myself. Did this author do any research?! If I hear the phrase “shock therapy” one more time I swear! But I am enjoying the book regardless.
