bailedAgain a bail that came fast. I wonder if I will ever again find a book that I like. This one is terrible. It‘s no novel, it‘s pseudo-everything. Additionally, I don‘t like it if descriptions and inner monologue get mixed and take so much room that the reader forgets where the plot ended before the waffling started. 🙄
The dialogues that provide the interesting information and would have had the potential to drive to story forward are too seldom.
It sounds so interesting and I would really like to love it but after a few pages I feel that it won‘t be an easy read because the author likes to weave complicated sentences and puts in Proust quotes very often (every second page 🙄).
It is such a strenuous read that takes a lot of focus and therefore after 13 pages I already don‘t know if I can work my way through the small seeming 165 pages under these conditions.

This is one of the two times a year where my e-book reader allows me to download e-books via Wi-Fi. Usually, this should always work because that‘s what it my e-book reader is designed for. But normally reality is that the downloads via Wi-Fi don‘t run and so I need to copy the books manually on my reader that is cabled on my laptop 💻. 🙄
The next one I took from my library in my “small-books-from-my-wish-list”-haul.
It only has 165 pages and I think I will start with this tonight after I will have successfully managed to download the e-books on my e-book reader and postpone this “elephant”-book*) from the blurb before till tomorrow.
*) The German version of that molehill-proverb says: “to make an elephant out of a mosquito” – which is why I refer to it as the “elephant”-book.
