I loved all the bits about the dictionary. I could have lived without her personal devastations, but that might be uncaring of me. I nearly stopped reading halfway through when it changed to how messy her life was and less about the words. however I'm glad I persisted.

I had some mixed feelings about this one. I flew through the first 100ish pages and LOVED them so much I was sure this would be a new favorite. From there it felt like things kind of lost direction and I moved at a glacial pace through the rest of it. Still love it but wish it could’ve stayed as wonderful as the beginning
