This is how I feel about my current Book of the Moon:
It's not that good, but it's useful anyway. I think writing a 5,000-year history of China in 150 pages is tough, but they sort of do it as a bargain basement sale, with typos and incomplete sentences and words that make no sense as placed.
I'm glad for the overview, it will help me to delve deeper later, but the quality of the book sucks. Worse than the Cliff Notes version.

So what next?
This new adventure is teaching me that to finish a book I have to spend time reading the damned book. When I was a kid that was easy. Right now, not so easy. But I want to finish books, I want to finish soooo many books! I miss getting deep into books. But there's so many books now. And the Internet. <--
So ... I think next I'm going to read a paperback fiction novel, pages between my fingers, and it will be from the Buffyverse. I don't have it here with me, but as the Moon flips on Sunday night, I'll flip into a fictional universe. And I bet it won't take two weeks. This kind of pulp fiction, I can consume it in a few days. But this time, it will be part of this Book of the Moon stuff. And I'll write about how it affects me. Makes sense, Book of the Moon, Buffy, and my dreams about getting stabbed.
Retrocausality is a thing. It's easier to see while stoned, for some reason. I remember that from college ;-)
