Also, sharing this excerpt: “Not to be sentimental, as I sound, but why the hell are we conditioned into the smooth strawberry-and-cream Mother-Goose-world, Alice-in-Wonderland fable, only to be broken on the wheel as we grow older and become aware of ourselves as individuals with a dull responsibility in life?”
I’ve been ‘reading’ Fairy Tale by Stephen King since August. When I pick it up I am enjoying it, but then I pop it down and weeks go by before I open it again
This was me with It! So good but every time I soaked up about 100 pages real quick and then put it down again, it was like a whole month went by each time.

I’ve been “reading” this for months. I keep renewing my library loan but I’m determined to finish before 2024. It’s not like it’s bad so I don’t know why it’s taking so long.
