Advice on To Paradise, Book 3, by Hanya Yanagihara
I've been working through In Paradise, and have enjoyed books 1 and 2. However, I've only got a short way into book 3 and am struggling with the context of the story. I'm not really a fan of dystopian narratives, especially ones set in the very near future and based around catastrophic viral outbreaks and climate change. It all just feels too real, and the anxiety it induces detracts from my enjoyment of the book.
My question is, is it worth continuing with the final part of the novel? I enjoy Yanagihara's writing and absolutely detest the idea of not finishing a book that I've started, but if it's just going to be bum me out for several hundred pages I'm not sure it's worth it. The first 2 books still had messages of hope in them (albeit potentially naïve), if this can be found in book 3 I'll keep going. If it's just a story of suffering through societal collapse, I'll leave it.
Thanks in advance, and no spoilers please!
