Really lost momentum on this one and finally just worked up the courage to drop it! Pretty hyper-focused on NYC to a boring degree. Normally wouldn't bother me, but felt like it needed to pick a lane between being a "definitive" history and exploring the bookshop through specific stores' stories. Maybe it settled more into one or the other in the second half, but I wouldn't know! (On account of, as you've read here, me getting bored!)
