Follow This Thread: A Maze Book to Get Lost In by Henry Eliot

adventurous informative slow-paced

2.75

picked it up from the library because the formatting intrigued me (there are pages that are turned upside down, to the side, etc, and this bright red thread leading through every page) and I didn't quite believe that it belonged in nonfiction. however, I now think that categorization was correct! I think I would have enjoyed an audiobook version of this, or a video version, far more than the book-ish edition, it's something, a topic, that I would've watched a video essay about (my obsession with hour+ youtube videos has re-surged) and felt more engaged with. But I felt in book form that the storyline was clunky, and it was difficult for me to go back and forth from general maze-talk to more mythology/Greek talk, with no real parameters. perhaps my rating was also affected by my current ability to focus, sinus pressure and multi-day migraines really do tear ya down, what can I say.
