I dont think you can tell, but this book is taking an entire millennium to read and was so close to putting me in a reading slump. I honestly, at times, willingly chose to do my trig homework or like an analysis for Shakespeare for my English class over reading.

To sum it up: I'm 2/3rds of the way into the book, and barely anything interesting has happened. B a r e l y.

so bored of this book

im bored of this book but im determined to finish

i mean this in the nicest and best way possible: i dont understand the hype.

im starting to dislike the "dark academia greek major philosophy" aspect of the book. It's one thing to watch the characters learn it to add to the atmosphere, but a complete other to create an important plot point out of a sort of 'greek ideology' that is 2000 years old and hasn't been explained. I'm really not a fan of the plot.

im intrigued. but ill say, i cant worry about the wellbeing of a character who says slurs oop sorry

Ah the wild f slur. Didn't think I would encounter it 3 times in one page.
