Bruh....we made it...
Welp, that happened. Sorry to Monsieur Proust, but I don't think that I'm capable of reading the rest of his books.
To be clear, his writing and commiserations can be absolutely gorgeous! Can they be long-winded? Yes. Is there a message behind them? Usually. Do I want to continue reading the series to hear more of his thoughts on various topics. No.
If you loved these books, I'd love to hear why you did, because, to me, this was all style and very little substance.
