I think I’ve found out this book doesn’t have time travel. I’m just enjoying knowing this character and understanding how he feels, ya know. I think I’m gonna be like friends with him by the end of this.

Haven’t read in a week. I’m slacking. Do you guys get down on yourself for not reading? I set a goal to read 15 books this year since I met my goal of 12 books last year. So far I’ve finished two books and am on my third. One of those books was 1200 pages so I’m counting that as 4 books which makes me a feel a little bit better. This has turned into an introspection. See you guys next time.

I’m starting to think there’s no time travel smh. Also this is very slow.

Took me 5 days to pick it back up again cause I’m so busy or whatever. So no sign of time travel yet but I’m feeling something, ya know. I’ve got a hunch. This book is moving very slowly so no wonder it’s 700 pages but I’m okay with it right now because the prose are so good.

I’m really liking this book so far. I didn’t read any premise for it so I feel like I still don’t know what is going to happen. I have a feeling that it involves time travel???? Would be so funny when it doesn’t involve time travel though. I just have a strong feeling. No one tell me if I’m right or wrong tho, thanks.

I started a new book! God be with me as this is a 700 page Pulitzer Prize winner and I have been reading like a sloth.
