Mine’s The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath. Thick books never stopped me from reading nonstop before, but there are entries in the book that just has me stopping and taking time to mull things over.
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?”
No one can blame you for that one. I think I made it to book three and had to take a break …. 7 years ago lol. LOVE the books but it takes some mental fortitude to stay in that world.
Yeah, gotta exert effort and set the right mood to read . Good thing I’m not alone. 😅 Good job for making it to the third book tho! But I’ll definitely try hard next time
