Just splurged on this and can‘t wait to start it ... about 15 years after it was recommended to me 😂.

It‘s definitely a slow one with a ton of time skips, but I think you can learn bits and pieces from this read.

I think if the right reader found it they would treasure it. However that person is not me🤷🏻‍♀️🙃

I‘m only half enjoying this book for my class, at least I‘m almost half done with it. I dislike how the author is jumping everywhere in the book. However I feel like I‘m learning something??😟
Hopefully my pleasure reads will put me back in track!

Today my office did a "decorate your own ornament" day for the company tree and this was mine! A poorly drawn book! I work in wedding photography, but I'm always reppin' my love of books with my @bookriot Read More Books water bottle, my current read always somewhere on my desk, my tattoos, and now this ornament!
