KC is on page 506 of 1024 of Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell

I'm finally halfway through 😭
It's so dense. Interesting premise, but hard to get through with any speed.

KC is on page 150 of 363 of The Purgatorio (The Divine Comedy, #2)

I think I am enjoying this more than I did Inferno.
Almost done with Purgatorio, and then on to Paradiso!

KC is on page 297 of 321 of The Red Tent

It just gets worse - Dinah reconnects with Joseph, except Dinah hates him. The chapter detsils that Joseph may have been a part of murdering an entire city along with his brothers, that he and Potifer may have had consenting homosexual relations, and he was actively in an affair with Potifers wife. Not to mention Joseph is painted as a cruel master of house and an incompetent jerk to boot... 30 pages left. Then trash

0/10. Will never recommend. This is heathenish.
There is so much within this sorry that is nothing other than lustful desire. The book paints men as driven by nothing less than their sexual desires, and the women as nothing less than the objects. Sure, Leah is a good business women, and Rachel is a kind/warm aunt, but their picked by Jacob for their body. And Dinah is just a sexcrazed hormonal girl.

I'm not sure if this book is borderline heresy or not.
There is a large focus this far on the pagan gods of the women's spiritual lives, and there has been large sections of text dedicated to clearly anti-Biblical themes (such as inferring beastiality, and that Jacob was fully aware of the switch between Leah and Rachel)
I understand that as a work of fiction, creative liberties can be taken, but this may be too far.

I REALLY enjoy how immersed I am in this world.
Like one of the characters logging out of OASIS, shutting my book for the night is just as disappointing.
