I've been going through a very difficult episode in my life and haven't had a lot of bandwidth for reading, so it's taking me much longer to get through this book than I anticipated. Still, I'm enjoying the read when I can make time for it.

Even knowing now what I know about the protagonist's work prior to waking up in his predicament, I find his cutesy self-censorship difficult to believe. To be fair, though, I'm not reading this book for Weir's character-building 🤷🏻♂️
This is the second time that NOLS has snatched this eBook back on its due date. I wasn't able to extend my hold because others are waiting for the book. I really hate the artificial scarcity of library eBook licenses 😤 I don't think I'll be checking this out again. The Damascus Incident itself is fascinating (and horrifying), and the author included all sorts of interesting historical tidbits, too; however, the book is written in a narrative style that feels really odd for a history book, character-driven and rambling, and I think I learned everything I wanted to know about the Incident on Wikipedia.
