"i have done a couple bad things"
i started trying to read a book that i believe is very popular and won many awards but unfortunately i find it..... dreary and boring
This happens to me too and every time I'm like "what am I supposed to do with this"
i feel like i have some insecurity around not """getting it"""! it's one thing to accept that it's Not For Me but in cases like this there this nagging anxiety of... what am i missing? why???
