Read the intro and first page. The introduction + acknowledgements are pitch perfect. There's nothing technically wrong with the writing, but the pacing is crap. No setting the scene, no ambiguity.
It reads more like a screenplay than a novel. Everything is loosely sketched + moves quickly. Theres no descriptions of appearances. Zero subtlety. But everything else is perfect! Pretty strange.
This is what I imagine fills the shelves in a lazily simulated world. Text as background noise, books purchased by the yard.
