Clara’s Reviews > Middlemarch > Status Update

I mean I prefer Dorothea updates but this is also some juicy ass nineteenth century gossip

Damn Will….👀👀

And damn George Eliot, your writing is insane (precise, real, poetic, beautiful, perceptive and on point) in the best way
Like, whATT
Accurate depiction of the complexity of human beings and their relationships in the highest concentration right there

We’ve been getting back to the storyline I care the most about, ALSO I got the physical copy at the library and have been rereading parts, so I’m stagnating (?) but not really, cause I have been reading…? Just not progressing…?
This book’s writing is so insanely clever (!!), witty and interesting, I just can’t really get on board with the length and vastness of characters and plotlines
Like gurl ?

Do I really care about middlemarchs medical future in this much detail?
I doubt it
Still, for some reason I have no problem listening to discussions of it in *this much detail*

finished book one ⭐️

honestly, this books concept is confusing and questionable to me
but I’m very understanding about it cause yk.. it’s like *really* old

To me this was kinda lacking though
The good stuff wasn’t enough and mediocre stuff I didn’t really like or care about was too much

Maybe it’s time for a break, before I continue with book 2
