I'm really curious to see how this is all going to wrap up but I've already made up my mind about it.

I'm still reading this! I just finished another quarter! It's crazy because this is clearly the longest a book has taken me in YEARS but I swear I'm loving it lmao. Not in a "let's see where this is going..." I've made up my mind! This is really good!

Oh that's right, I was reading this. Anyway, really good. I'll stick with it! But the parts with Stephen Black dragged and you get the feeling that Norrell just kinda bored himself in the second half of his own section because he ran out of things to do.

You know what? No. Or rather,maybe, but not now. This is a massively long book and I'm already seeing where it's going, and Clarke seems like a cousin of Miéville,and I don't like that at all. Don't get me wrong. I'm liking the reading itself, but after sitting down for the first 100p I already know I'm going to have mixed feelings by the end of the read, and I'm not here to read a thousand pages of "mixed feelings".
