Let’s commiserate. What’s on your stuck book list?

Let’s commiserate. What’s on your stuck book list?
I’m stuck on Gideon the Ninth.
It’s not even a bad book! It’s actually quite good and I want to see what happens. I guess I’m just not in the mood for grimdark in space? It’s been sitting there for two months. I’ve read like three kindle books rather than read Gideon. :/
I had good time with that one, I felt it was fun despite the grimdark. Gideon really carried it for me.
I’m reading Harrow the Ninth now, but about 3rd of the way through it has not gripped me yet.
Keep going, it will grab you when it grabs you
I loved it and couldn’t put it down, but you’ve gotta be in the mood for it as it is. I think it’s best not to think of it as grimdark, but as basic humanity as an act of rebellion, and catholic traumacore.
Harrow on the other hand is probably the best book I’ve ever read despite it being crazy difficult to read.
