Read Because: personal enjoyment (?), hardback borrowed from the Timberland Regional Library (October chewed on the binding a little, which would be less noticeable if it hadn't been visibly pristine and unread before I tried to have a crack at it; oh, forgive me, library)
Review: DNF at 10%, and that 10% took me weeks to get through. There are moments in the tone—painfully forthright in the way that tips into dark humor—that could work. If not for the endless asides into conspiracy theorizing; if not for the unappealing art and dense, rambling text. Each page, a headache; I concede to the inevitable and acknowledge I'm not going to get through this.
