When will I ever finish this book?
Got to that point of the book where it solidified my stance on this book being so morbid and so interesting at the same time. The book keeps you at a distance from being sympathetic with the characters, while keeping interest by revealing their messed up livelihood that trapped them in such a life. It's such an interesting slow burn of a book.

So I'm probably about to sprint read this since I have got to finish this by the 10th (of which I leave). I usually can read 343 pages within two months (like IT'S NOT EVEN THAT LONG) but I JUST KEEP GETTING SIDETRACKED.
The book is still pretty strong though, and I find myself feeling kinda disturbed for feeling empathy for these guys. This book is a masterpiece - so incredible that I can't wait to write about it.

Reading through it real slow because real life is getting in the way of things (and was reading another book simultaneously), so this may take a lot longer than I anticipated. But this book still continues to morbidly entice me, how it engenders sympathy for these cruel people, humanizing them but always putting us at a distance from being too close to them. I am so impressed with how this is being handled.

This book is actually a lot more interesting than I expected it to be wow. The way that Capote takes his time to develop his characters before the tragedy, describing their daily routine and their place in the town. The book is the best kind of a slow burn.
