Reckon I’ve started this 5 or 6 times now. Never made it past chapter 2.
I actually really liked the baseball bit at the start - if that doesn’t do anything for you it’s probably not worth another go tbh.
Yeah I love the baseball chapter - seriously beautiful writing - but then I hit the second chapter and it’s …

It’s also the original hardback I’ve got because I bought it when it first came out in the initial fuss. I think part of it is that I just don’t like holding massive hardback books! Maybe I should bung it on the kindle.
maybe i should pick up my guitar again. i know id enjoy it i just never find time to do anything music-wise but i think itd be really good for me. dont think ive played since 2008
Hah, yeah I was lugging the paperback between home and work for months. If I’d had the hardback I’d have probably thrown my shoulder out.

Taken about a month to do 100 pages but getting drawn in more and more and I loved Lot 49 so feel I gotta keep going.
DiS Piano lessons Breastfeeding (nearly 16 months and still going strong) Love my career oh god most things probably apart from the things I’m just glad to be shot of.
this reads like a well wank/ wonky haiku
