we’re switching to percentages because i finally remembered to account for the bibliography, notes, and index in the back. i’m surprised im maintaining pace since this is nonfiction and i started a day early. barbra is so delulu it’s been very fascinating to read.

i’m a day ahead in this book. still poorly paced and poorly written but the tidbits are fascinating. this just stuff is sad man & this movie is shaping up to be a giant mess. it’s still the best one and she still should’ve won the oscar!

plot meanders in a non-narrative way that is confusing. he’ll mention random facts about something unrelated to “set the scene” and then circle back after i’ve forgotten where we were. also poorly written in a way that feels journalistic (just looked at his author bio, he’s a journalist lol!). but there are interesting tidbits in here and it isn’t too hard to read
