Dreadful

I now recall why I hated the series so much now that I am re-reading: Stephen’s character is miserable in a way that makes his chapters dreadful to read ever since the second book, Patrick O’Brian’s greatest mistake was writing Post-Captain, and second greatest mistake was not ending the series

Jack is more enjoyable to read, and I’m forcing myself to get past this for the sake of finishing a started book

This dumbass just threw his laudanum away he’s gonna be tweaking any second now

stephen you cheeky cheeky man

OBrian's trying to make Stephen as ugly as possible in his description I admire him for that

stephen you dumb fuck

its gonna take me 9 months in kobo
