I’m just over 70% now and just finding it too long.
I have moments where I’m really into it Sarah and others where I feel exactly the same. I can see how it might be too long Nicky, at this point I feel like I should be more than half way
Interesting that you are reading Black Bag and The Vivisectors at the same time. They are quite similar in some ways with tone another. This can be both good and bad.
Yes Adina. I’m finding more moments oh YES in this one than the Vivisectors. But that’s possibly a tone comparison? I feel like the Vivisectors is doing a LONG set up, whereas Black Bag has kind of got to the essence of what it’s doing quite early on?
