I realized my Goodreads edition had the wrong page count I still have 100ish pages left in my version I think I switched it

I unfortunately did not finish it today but I came close. If I was willing to be tired tomorrow I could’ve, but I didn’t want to go to bed past 1am when I get up at 6. I need this book to end because I need to know nothing else can happen to these characters. Part 5 ends on a crazy cliffhanger I truly don’t know how I found the ability to not flip the page. Ready for more pain tomorrow!

I literally have 12 hours left of this audiobook and it’s already 1pm but the delusional part of me thinks I can finish this book today

This book physically hurts to read, I can feel my heart breaking more and more with every page. When I’m reading I’m so in the book and can’t stop. When I’m not reading I’m thinking about the book and processing what I’ve read and it hurts all over again. I need to finish this asap because I don’t know how much longer I can read this devastating of a book and be in this headspace

Jude has had such a horrible life holy moly I don’t think I can listen to this audiobook it’s so stomach turning

I’m about halfway through part one (aka halfway through the part I’ve already read) and I still think this book is boring but my goal is to read at least through part 2 before making any decisions to DNF again. I don’t understand the point of having chapters within the parts if each chapter is 45 pages but whatever

I’m going to re-attempt this book since I’ve gotten a lot more into fiction over the past year. I have the audiobook (it’s over 31 hours long!) and I’m going to listen to part one (what I read originally) and probably physically read the rest of it. I remember the first part being boring but I’m quite interested to see how the rest of the story goes (solely because of the reactions I see online)

Finally finished part 1!!! Got paid for this too

I spent an hour reading, locked in and only made it 25p. I’m really into the idea of this book but I HATE how it’s written. I don’t usually notice writing style but it’s aggressively past tense 3rd person underdeclared switching povs mid chapter. Also the chapters are 45 pages long I’m still in chapter 2 and I don’t think it switches until p96. I really want to stick with it but I’m not enjoying it lol
