So many typos and missing punctuation. But otherwise a smooth and interesting read.

Lori is 82% done with The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle
I have no idea of the chronology of this day. Aiden keeps putting details together from previous hosts, and as I read them I realize I have no memory of the who, how, or why... even though I've already read it! Suffice to say, this book is difficult to read. I just hope that the ending will make some kind of sense to me. And, btw, that ending needs to come soon. This book is starting g to drag. 9 chapters to go.

Reeeeeealy into the first third of this book. I am now just over half way finished, and although I still love the concept, I am having trouble hanging on. It is difficult to keep the characters and chronology straight. And it just isn't progressing fast enough. I'll finish because I am curious how it ends. We'll see if it does me.

Pretty sure I've figured this out. The story is really good so far, but if she stays clueless for too long, I will lose interest. (Unless I am wrong and get totally surprised... then I won't be upset if she is clueless.) Let's see...

My apologies to the world. I have abandoned another book. I quit in the middle of the eighth chapter when I decided this was too far into the book to find myself still not liking any of the characters. This is supposed to be entertainment reading, and I'm not waiting any longer to be entertained.

I think this book could be easily a third shorter without sacrificing content. So close to finishing. Help me...

Is it just me? It seems like I keep reading the same details over and over again.

Lori is starting The Mind of the Maker: Dorothy L. Sayers' Witty Classic on the Trinity, Christianity, and Human Creativity
Free Will and Miracle will have me thinking for a long time. Sayers explores how an author must give her characters free will in order for the story to remain unified. She posits that, though an author is always free to introduce miracle, she can only do so believably if it serves the purpose of her plot. She likens all this to God, His will, our free will, and His choice to do the miraculous. Brills-ville

I need to stop reading Goodreads reviews while reading the book. I don't know if this book is getting tedious because it's getting tedious or because so many other people told me it would.

Not sure about this. The theme of damaging parenting isn't one of my favorites. It's hard for me to read this stuff.
