Fascinating. I have quit reading more books without finishing in the past two years than in my entire life up to this point. (I’m 67.) My time is more important to me than ever before, and if something’s just not clicking for me then I’m over and done with it. But sometimes a book is just disturbing to me and I’ve got to put it down or I’ll never sleep another minute in my life. But I’ve also stopped reading a novel about three-quarters of the way and jotting down, albeit briefly, my own ending, then finishing the book to see what the author had in mind. I suppose this could be called “Pausing A Book,” and you might enjoy it too. Thanks for sharing. Cheers!
I just finished New Animal and same! What a book, her observations and the way she writes are so dog earring-worthy
Can't wait to read more from her - I hope we don't have to wait too long!
