Not loving it! Not gripped, find it hard to enjoy/engage with stories that use social media and texting; as Chloe put it, as soon as it’s down on paper it’s out of date; this PJ POV is pretty slow and uninteresting. Prob won’t finish

I cannot finish this book. I put in a big shift but it’s just not doing much for me; so much telling, not enough showing.

Back to the lib she goes

“As if some giant cucumber had spread itself over all the roses and carnations in the garden and choked them to death.”

“If a teapot has been formed…if the work be beautiful, and if it conveys to the beholder the knowledge and refinement of an educated artist, then it is ridiculous to estimate its value as though the material of which it is composed were of grater worth than the amount of life, thought, and painstaking care expensed upon its production.”

“It has been said that the proportion of one to two is not so beautiful as that of one to three, and that this again is not so pleasant as three to five. Indeed, the law of proportion is this: the more difficult it is to detect the relation of part to part the more beautiful the proportion is.”
