…and came away wildly frustrated that nobody milked that poor fucking cow!

The medieval chapters were among the best historical fiction I’ve ever read. I found myself frustrated with the present day chapters because I was dying to get back to the 14th century.

I felt that there was a lot of repetition in the present day part, which probably contributed to the frustration. I stuck it out though since the other half was so rich.

Gonna ask my therapist why I was so much more upset about the cow than the people literally dying of the plague.

    This was the most redeeming part of the professor’s chapters - I couldn’t believe how accurate it was. So eerie!
