Literally took me half a year. I'm still not sure I followed what was going on. I liked the movie "The Hours", though! Oh, well. Sorry, she-Woolf.

Mrs. Dalloway is a plotless novel that takes place in one day through a stream of consciousness of all the characters in the book - with a focus on Mrs. Dalloway. I struggled with the lack of plot and directionless pages. There were also no chapters, which I didn't like. It's a short classic. However, it is not one of my favourites.
From the book, it was obvious that Mrs. Dalloway is potentially struggling with depression.

A classic but honestly tough read, a definite struggle to follow every single deep dive into the interiority of characters that shift so often. At its heart, an interesting literary meditation on our interior lives but at what cost to my brain working overtime

tbh don’t know why i read this im not clever enough for classic literature so clearly i did not enjoy it
I really wished I enjoyed this book more than I did! I love the themes and the prose is great but too much and overwhelming most of the time for me…
