As with any John Green book, finishing it comes close to a tragedy.

Reading a chapter of this book a day has become a ritual and now I don't know how to feel.

Needless to say, this book has heavily influenced my perspective on life, and I am nothing but grateful for this man's writing. I sincerely hope he never stops.

Reflecting back on my previous posts, I feel like this might be interesting to someone out there who might relate.

It has become incredibly hard for me to read and stay focused for a longer amount of time. Unfortunately, something I used to love has become a struggle and something I am embarrassed to admit. So I started this blog to try and motivate myself to talk about this issue and potentially get motivated to read again. And it didn't work because I wasn't active on it and eventually it just became yet another thing I was ashamed of not having the focus for. But I am not giving up and I am trying my best to work on my focus and work on my reading. And finally after years I am finally in a good mental space, so today, I have finally managed to finish a book. I am proud and I don't care that it took me 6 months for it, I take it as a win.

What helped me with this particular book (Normal People by Sally Rooney), other than my own interest, is the fact that I've seen the tv show first. For some reason, knowing what's going to happen and noticing the difference between the book and the show has helped me read more and maintain my focus. I might try that again with something else, and as unusual as it sounds, there might be someone else out there who this might work for. Wish you all the best.

Normal People, Sally Rooney

I have finally finished this book!!! I am very proud of myself because it's probably been years since I've managed to finish a book.

So long story short, it's incredible. Left me breathless. I am actually speechless, and I cried. It goes so deep into the characters psychological analysis and even tho I don't relate to them I could feel it and understand it all. It was just overall an incredible experience and an amazing story. I recommend this book to everyone.

Normal People

I've seen the show first and as good as it is, the book is so much better. Some inner thought processes just cant be portrayed in acting and thought processes in this book can get really dark and twisted.

I'm halfway through it, and this time I really hope my ADHD will let me finish it.

I finally have some time to read again. I started reading "It" by Stephen King, and I love it! It's my first time reading both a Strphen King book, and a horror book, so I hope this will be a great experience.

So far so good. #page525
