“How can we expect novelists to be moral, when their trade forces them to treat every end they meet as no more than an imperfect means to a novel?”
BWAAAAHAHAHA! No idea why this book was on my TBR but obviously I needed this line.

I didn’t sort by genre or author or anything. It is what it is. I open the list, filter by “available now,” and whatever is next on the list is borrowed next. I give it 25% (or if I know right away, like with this one) and if it hasn’t clicked, I thank it, return it, and move on to the next one. Whatever is next is next. I’ve read some amazing books this way. I’ve also DNF’d a lot but someone else will love them. And then there are those books where I scratch my head, “Why in hell did I add this one?”
