Tammy asked this question about The Sympathizer (The Sympathizer, #1):
Having a hard time getting into this one. Maybe because my schedule is too busy for more than 10 pages at a time. Did anyone else feel this way? Is it worth my time to push through?

I was also doing 10pp at a time for at least the first 100pp. The main character takes time to grow on you.
