Picking it up from where I last left off.

Putting this novel on official pause. I haven't picked it up in the last two months due to life, an at the moment it does not interest me to keep reading. Overall I do wanna know what happens, so maybe I'll come back to it, but later.

What most calls out, appeals to me, about Miéville's writing is his ability to spout a few choice words here and there, esoteric made-up nouns peppered like seasoning upon the normal sentences, and in doing so create magic, mystery, myth about the world around. And then to move on like nothing more mundane than the time of day had been said.
