I liked the idea of this, and parts of it really are beautiful and I did love. But really...a paragraph to describe the color of walls and tile? It was so so slow. ESP at the beginning. Glad I finished it. It did improve.

Kinda tedious tbh. Also I don’t think this book is the one for me at the moment and doesn’t match my vibe. Others may like it but who knows I guess.

The constant agony of being a woman in the world displayed in some of the most alarmingly pristine language I’ve ever encountered… by a man no less… I’m never going to shut up about this…

I wanted to give this book 3 stars, since it's quite tidily crafted (and at times truly lovely), but then this sentence happened:
"Mary lingers a moment behind Julia, allowing herself a view of Julia's broad, graceful back, the twin moons of her ass."
...and I was like, nah.
