It Lasts Forever and Then It's Over by Anne de Marcken

DID NOT FINISH: 44%

---

Full of potential but felt somewhat aimless. I was under the impression that it would feel more cosmic/fantastical based on marketing. Instead, it ventured more toward the apocalyptic, which I failed to fully realize until later into the novella. I understand why other people might enjoy it. Many individual sections had meaningful, thought-provoking lines, and I was pulled in by the references to the “you” figure. However, I struggled with feeling invested with the narrative and the characters. This novella felt too disjointed to sustain my attention and finish reading.
