I’ve really come around!!!

Okay I reframed my expectations for this reading experience and I’m feeling renewed! I’m able to better appreciate this book for what it is (and accept what it’s not). I’m enjoying it much more now!

It’s picking up a bit, listening to audio book on my commute is helping me make some meaningful progress that makes the pace less daunting.

Painfully boring I’m so disappointed- it’s so choppy and episodic! nothing builds, there is no crescendo! Ugh 🥺 just a bummer

This book is reading differently than I expected! Each chapter feels episodic, like a short story. They aren’t entirely independent but the plot is less progressive and isn’t building how I’d imagined. The era in which I was pursuing an art history minor is awakening anew in me, which is fun.
