The book does rambles and is hard to follow exactly what is happening in many instances. Despite that, I mostly enjoyed this read. There were many perfectly put together sentences which I only wish after finishing the book that I should have highlighted for future reference. Woolf plays the part of the fanatic and flawed narrator/biographer well and the book felt light hearted and still every few paragraphs it will hit right on the nose to describe a particular social or personal aspect that feels very relatable or insightful. I enjoyed the devotion to the wonder of nature, the reflection on the fluidity of ones gender and identity, and the flaws of romanticizing people who are perceived as geniuses and trying to force insight and intelligence in yourself.
