…and came away wildly frustrated that nobody milked that poor fucking cow!

The medieval chapters were among the best historical fiction I’ve ever read. I found myself frustrated with the present day chapters because I was dying to get back to the 14th century.

I felt that there was a lot of repetition in the present day part, which probably contributed to the frustration. I stuck it out though since the other half was so rich.

Gonna ask my therapist why I was so much more upset about the cow than the people literally dying of the plague.

    This book drove me crazy for one specific reason: every five pages, it’s >!“Geez, we REALLY need Badri to wake up!” I think that was the character’s name. Never has so much of a plot been driven by the fact that there’s one dude in a coma.!<

    Don’t get me wrong, the book was well-written and I enjoyed it for the most part, I just got really tired of >!the whole “Badri is in a coma” subplot!<.
