haven’t been reading a chapter a day but make sure to catch up every few days / at least once a week

can’t say i’m really enjoying it tbh

The second book killed my enthusiasm for it, I know we’re back to the city now but I’m struggling to pick it up. Especially when I’m enjoying the other stuff I’m reading so much.

book 3 is worse than 2

Needs an option for ‘Still reading but no idea where I’m supposed to be up to’

I’m not particularly enjoying it if I’m honest. How is the War part more boring than the Peace?

This’ll be useful, cheers! Looks like I’ve fallen behind a bit.

I still haven’t really gotten a handle on exactly who everyone is and why they’re doing what they’re doing. I think it’s because they’re largely interchangeable poshos.

if this was called War and Fleece then theo would love it

^ had this saved in my drafts but never posted it
bye

I’m still on Book 2. Just seems to be an endless cycle of battles, boring meetings and troop inspections.

I haven’t officially given up but I’ve only read Part 3 Chapter 4 which was Feb 19th so I’m like 2 weeks behind.

TBH I too don’t really find myself enjoying it all that much. Characters are confusing and there isn’t one that I particularly like.

Hope to get back on it soon.

Think I’m about five or so chapters behind. Will try catch up this week.

Can’t say it’s making my brain melt with its brilliance but I’m enjoying it more than I thought I would.

I’m up to date now, it has been quite boring

Guys it’s much more fun if you abandon the ‘one chapter a day’ thing and throw yourself into it whole heartedly!

I guess being ok reading about the bizarre antics of a bunch of aristocratic Russians helps.

I might do this, I think it could be the only way I’ll finish the thing

Of course it will make me a traitor to the thread, but screw you guys
