First week back to online uni & literature classes📚

the book is way too long for what the plot is and like she could have made it so interesting but like i said the villain is just so underwhelming the plot is so underwhelming and i'm so sad that this is the resolution and the last book that we're getting in this series

i'm steadily growing to dislike nikolenka our protagonist just as he develops throughout boyhood and youth i'm finding also that my general enjoyment of this novel is diminishing as we kind of drive further and further away from childhood

then you get to the end and you realize that like there was so much more there that the ending on earth is and just like you get to the ending and you're kind of like what like wait a second like you don't think it should end there and then it does and it's really devastating so then you like just go back and re-evaluate your whole take on the story and what you thought it was about and what's going on in it and it was brilliant

i was literally just so happy reading the first one i read it over the summer and it was just such a good time i absolutely adore this series so much

i'm finding it kind of hard to keep picking back up because i'm finding it very slow a little bit boring and dry if i'm being honest nothing's really grabbing my attention or making me care too much about anything

how can it be so good when i'm literally 20 pages through i don't know it's just so good like it's so good already
