aaaand i'm annoyed again.

I'm going to give this one more solid try but I'm just not clicking with it the way i want to. it's good, but it's very slow paced, and i don't find myself like, dying to know what happens next. it's highly likely it's a "right book wrong time" thing, i can't stress enough that it's really well written. we'll see if it picks up now I'm past the halfway mark.

am i taking this slow or is it slow paced? hard to say. most invested in esheme right now even though i can guess she's the villain of the tale, lol.

this is popping off and entering "can't put it down" territory, SO annoyed i have to pay attention to work today!

esheme for (deranged, complimentary) president

this feels a bit like the opening of strange the dreamer by laini taylor-- hapless nerd just wants to learn everything, boring shit like racism and bullying get in the way. really liking the style so far, and the worldbuilding.
