several members of goodreads complimented virginia woolf's memoirs, and because i trust them i was determined to read it. but it is either that memoirs r not my type of books, or that this certain book of woolf's memoirs is not good, or that those members of goodreads were totally wrong. but really, i can't decide the reason that i didn't like it, cause i've never read any other memoirs.
anyway, to me, the story is okay, and touching. but sooooooooo not interesting.
