Back on my “reading 3 books at the same time” shit.

Absolutely gobsmacked. What a powerful novel.

So far, this is exactly what I expected while also having a twist that I didn’t expect at all. A fascinating observance on society and the roles we play in it.

It’s taking me so long to read this book and there are some fair reasons for it, but another reason is because I am honestly not enjoying it at all. Some critics say this Rooney at her best, but thus far it’s been very boring with some pretty flat characters. Maybe I just haven’t reached the part where it’s good yet, but if that’s true, why is the first half bad?

Skim, read, highlight, skim, read, highlight. Gathering information for an analytical paper.

I love Sally Rooney, but so far this is almost a chore to read through. The writing style is very different than her past work and I don’t like or care about the characters yet. TBC

American Lit Seminar book 1

So far, pretty fucking funny.
