I should’ve dnfed

Seriously considering dnfing this one. I lowkey can’t stand it

🥴🥴this book is so adhd

“Newman wrote his spiritual autobiography in a mere two months, tears falling onto the pages as he wrote. (Charles Kingsley, an Anglican writer, had accused Newman, and the Catholic clergy in general, of dishonesty. Newman's devastatingly effective response in the Apologia demolished Kingsley's reputation, a fact that Kingsley never quite seemed to grasp.)”

Pretentious👨🏻
