This book was an emotional rollercoaster! At first I really wasn't into it, and then I got SUPER into it, and THEN I went up and down in how into it I was. It is mainly no plot just vibes, but at some times I felt more captured by it than others? Once again I adore Virginia Woolf's writing style, I love listening and reading simultaneously. It really captures the beauty of the present moment, and gave me a really nice philosophical moment of gratitude as I listened to the last chapter in the bath. It's definitely not a book I think everyone would like, but if you really love beautiful language and don't mind not always knowing what is quite happening... this is for you!!
