La fin feel un peu rapide pour le reste de l'histoire et il y a certaines de mes questions qui restent encore sans réponse

DNF @ 15%
I waited months for this book. I even pre-ordered it. I picked it up on release day. I still cannot believe it is one of my few and only DNFs.
Young's previous works, including Before Jamaica Lane, On Dublin Street, and Down London Road were some of my favorite and well remembered reads. A Cosmic Kind of Love felt like it belonged to a teenager with an identity crisis.
I stopped watching Grey's Anatomy after 18 seasons for this very same reason. the writing felt like it went astray. it felt unfaithful. it was no longer about the characters we all know and love(d). it was about being relevant in 2022, but very "in your face" about it. reading this felt like I was sitting in class with South Park's PC Principal.
maybe one day I'll pick it up again and finish it. maybe. just because I don't particularly like leaving things unfinished, but it won't be any time soon.
