eliana i hate this book with a passion

Oh dear. I’m not to that level but I’ll admit to skimming certain portions (mainly the politics and any time men are talking too long…). I’m just so fascinated by what Eliot is doing here with social commentary. And some of these relationship threads are so stressful to read 😂 (which led to the “vexed” comment).

Yeah this book was such a domestic nightmare is some many ways. I think vexed is the right word for how I felt for most of the read too
