How's your day going? I'm trying to decide what to do with my afternoon, and maybe you have some ideas.
Well, I was going to try and finish that book I started, but I'm finding it hard to get into. The author's descriptions of the war were pretty brutal, and it's hard to follow the plot. I really wish they'd **vanquish** the evil king already!
Oh wow, a war book, huh? What’s making it so hard to get into? Is it the pacing, or something else entirely?
