So 80 pages in and I'm bored to tears. Also his affection for his mother is creepy to say the least. Should I continue?

I didn't think it was possible to be this plebeian, congratulations OP.

way to go autismo

His descriptiveness of experiences is just utterly boring, I'm sorry. Does it get any better, though?
>>9247578
Not wanting a kiss, but rather his way of narrating the event makes it seem as if he has some affection for her, some extreme form of oedipus complex.

It doesn't have the most gripping plot, in fact I can't think of any reason to read this if you don't enjoy the way he describes things. You may as well drop it, we'll try to get your pleb card out to you within 8-10 business days.

i second this. if you don't like how complete, deep and obsessional his with his going into every nuance of everything he's probably not your author of choice. his affection for his mother is that of a kid who's afraid of dark, do you recall your childhood? ever stayed up all night in fear?

>Does it get any better, though?
You mean zombies, nazis, fantastic creatures, a drunk alpha male character who hates women, etc.? No.
>>9247568
No, you're too young.
>>9247630 here, it just occurred to me that if you are a staunch rk9 style misogynist you may want to hang on through "Swann in Love", where you may find some measure of personal validation.
