i've put this one down before because it was really a difficult read for me in the beginning. i had to look up several words that i still don't have in my vocabulary and almost put it down again this time.
but my perseverance paid off and i reached the point where i couldn't put  it down that i was tabbing and higlighting on almost every page 🤍
this book has very little plot but what i appreciate the most about it are the voices of the main characters. i didn't know i would enjoy a book that talks about philosophy a lot. it reminds me a little bit of the show @nbcthegoodplace
especially Chidi's character. 
and also,since this book has a lot to say about art as well, i couldn't think about art without thinking of RM( @rkive ) of BTS 💜 that man loves art so much,he even performed some of his songs in a museum💜 i personally think that he would love this book, too. 

i consider this book as one of my faves
