I think this book is at least 100 pages too long. It is really beginning to drag. I can't wait to close the last chapter and put it down already. Towles keeps interrupting the storyline and jumping from one character to another, not to mention adding new ones all the time is becoming tedious. Yes, he fills every chapter with philosophical thoughts and various points of view, but too much is too much.

It’s going slowly because it’s too detailed and I get distracted by the news. The Rest Is Noise by the same author seemed more engaging.
