Scrat the Squirrel’s Reviews > Moon and Sixpence > Status Update

The more I read the harder I love this book. It started off so incredibly slow, but I kept going because I had an inkling that the story was going to blossom. And blossom it did, I’m loving the Paris arc and the Greek mythology motifs and Strickland and Stroeve’s characters are to DIE for, they’re so fascinating

So he’s low key sexist, but if we entirely ignore that fact he’s literally me in my past life?? That passage about the sense of wrong in a commonplace life style got me. Also this is like a writer’s book it’s such a fascinating perspective. Also witty writing? Lovee it. Something about when I first read the back of Bonds of Steel made me say “ u know I think me and Maugham are gonna get along realll well”
