The Book of Love by Kelly Link
Did not finish book. Stopped at 72%.

This is beautifully written but there are too many POVs and not enough plot. It’s due tomorrow and I have no urgency to finish or find out what happens. When I’m reading it, I love it, but when I put it down I forget about it. I hate giving up so far along, but this book just ain’t doin it.
