Herman Melville is very hard for me to read because after I read the book, I would have to try and figure out what the story line really was. Once I figured it out though, I liked the story line, I just didn't like trying to figure out what was going on.

suing my professor for intentional infliction of emotional distress and for the fact that i couldn’t dnf this book since it was an assigned reading. i have never yearned to finish a book as much as i did this one. it nearly put me into a reading slump and depressed me a bit.

i was determined to give this a one star but i couldn’t by the end because there were a lot of things in this that resonated strongly with me, so that was a plus. just happy to be done that’s all.
