Years ago I read a book that introduced me to the phrase ‘it’s very like’. And now it’s a family saying.
I tried to find it to include it in my list of books. I didn’t manage it in time. But now I have. Welcome back.

I’ve been reading this since 2007. It reads well, I’m interested, but it’s ~590 pages & I get 1/3 in then halt for some reason, lose my thread, & have to restart.
I hoped this might be the time…but it wasn’t.
Had I finished it, it would have been #200 a book with a cover you love
