Time to crack down and finish this 😭 The concept is so interesting, and I think the themes and warnings of this dystopian narrative are ever prescient and important, but I’m struggling with Bradbury’s writing style. It’s just not compelling to me - in fact, Neil Gaiman’s foreword for the novel is more compelling and gripping than the actual text.

i totally agree. bradbury's writing feels very metaphor-focused rather than story-focused to me, which takes me out of the story
