    Pre-Read Thoughts

    I first discovered Mary Roach on an Ologies podcast episode and found her hilarious. That's when I started adding her books to my TBR. A friend recommended I start with this one. I'm excited to dive in. I usually find animals interesting and grew up watching animal documentaries. Nonfiction is my least preferred genre, but occasionally I find gems. Hope this is one of them.

    R. F. Kuang always awes me with her cleverness and meta commentary. She writes the story in a way that teaches you about society's complications and hypocrisy, without feeling like she's preaching. I also enjoyed how well developed the magic system in this book was; it's like a supporting character in its own way. The first half of the book felt stronger to me; the second half had some pacing and congruity issues.

    Progress Tracking Not Always Consistent

    I alternate in forum posting between [pages read]/[total # pages] and just writing in the % (from my Kindle, which shows that stat). I've noticed in the forums that the % don't seem to always match. My Kindle will show that I'm at 50% for example, but when I read other discussions at that percentage, it's clear that some other readers are in a different chapter.

    Is this due to different formats/editions/etc.?

    I even then switched to the page count way, but the % that was calculated in the app didn't match the % my Kindle was saying. Not sure how to rectify.

    I had something spoiled to me because of this discrepancy, so I'm trying to figure out how to avoid it for myself, as well as others!
