"I’m going to finish it, but it’s not really thrilling. Not that a book needs to be thrilling. It’s satire that tends towards earnestness when it doesn’t have a bead trained on anything in particular. Also conveys some real pathos, I think. It flirts with thrilling elements, which is good. More meditative, though." — Aug 13, 2022 09:29AM
