Tiffiney I enjoyed the half about Holmes...struggled with the other half about the architecture of the fair and so on... 5y

thereadingowlvina @Tiffiney I agree that the other half was a struggle. But I just enjoyed it for the writing and history 😬 5y

Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick I went with an audiobook for this one & I'm glad for it. I think I would've called it quits reading it but listening in 30 minute pieces helped. 5y

thereadingowlvina @Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick 😁 5y

marleed I still think about all that horse manure and the problems for a large city to deal with it. I never thought of it before this book. Nonfictions are always harder for me to read than a novel, but he‘s good and making you forget you‘re reading a history book. 5y
