I think I would have understood and liked this book a lot better if I had read it physically when I was more awake. I realized this pretty quickly into the book, but kept with it because its due tomorrow. I listen to most of my audiobooks at work and have been working night shift lately, so it felt more like a fever dream than a story. It was a bit overwhelming at the beginning and then felt like nothing was happening, yet I still couldn't keep up with it. I think it's a challenging book that needs more attention than I had to give at the moment. I'd say it felt like 2.5☆ but I rated it 3.5☆ because I know where I'm mentally at tonight and that it was more than I could handle. At some point in the future I'll try and get my hands on a physical copy to read.
I do love Woolf's writing and signature introspective prose-like description of her characters' thoughts, feelings, and motivations.
