I know it's one of your favorite books, /lit/, but I'm already struggling to keep focus. Is the entire book like that?

If you can't focus for 10 fucking pages why even bother trying to read more 900 pages?

>can't even get through the first 10 pages
you should just drop it and start reading something that you actually like.
I've read 700 pages and I'm starting to get tired of all the women who are raped both vaginally and anally. Is it worth continuing?

Part 5 is the best.
>>8260560
Yes, that part is meant to be difficult to read. The last part is the best. Made me cry.

maybe The Hunger Games is more your reading comprehension. I hear it's got lots of explosions.
>>8261071
there are no explosions in the hunger games
You are shit at reading OP, go and read Harry Potter.
2666 is a borefest with no redeeming qualities, I'm not sure why people include it as a 'meme' with much better books like the recognitions
>>8261090
Cannons are explosions.
1st part is the best part.

what about when katniss literally explodes the careers food source? How retarded are you?
The entire last book is explosions. Try coloring books, they're more your speed.
>>8260188
ignore the idiots.
the book is basically a first draft. Bolano died before he could rewrite the entire thing.
