This book is awesome. It is. But it's also very slow going for me.

It's possibly just bad timing. Especially with the state of world affairs, reading about Hitler and WW2 is not the best idea at the moment, I think.

But I am not giving up on this, I can't. It's a really good read.

This book. I have heard such great things, but I am having mixed feelings about the beginning.

It's just...different, which is neither a good or a bad thing on its own, but I am unsure about how it makes me feel.

I guess it (the writing style) is just going to take some getting used to, since I have only just begun.

Have you guys read this book?
