Goodreads has stopped showing Love in the Time of Cholera in my currently reading list on my home page. Sure, if I click show all it pops up. But it’s not there laughing at me and taunting me. I want to finish it, I really do. But it’s just so hard. It’s almost painful to read. It’s not even that it’s bad, it’s just so long winded that I get distracted and forget what the heck I was reading about.

Instead now I just have The Jungle reminding me that I abandoned it. I’m not entirely sure why I pushed that one aside. Perhaps book club books got in the way and now I just keep forgetting other than the dust it’s collection on my nightstand.
