I really wanted to love this book but it was quite a slog to get through!

took me forever to finish this- i don’t have time to think and maybe that affected my thoughts but honestly i much preferred going back to the character guide in my brilliant friend than i did constantly reading the glossary in dune.

i want to get off arrakis and go back to florence please. it was nice though to read the book because then i understood the plot when i watched dune 2 over someone’s shoulders on a flight.
