I need to just do it and start reading Annie Bot. It’s a “comp” book to my scifi dramedy and, as such, it would really help the querying process to read it.

And yet, I’m really struggling to read it. To even look at it at all.
I guess the key reason this is because I’m not thrilled to be confronted with how badly my writing sucks in comparison.
So, the question is: am I ever going to read it?
Well, I own a copy to read. So, that’s a start.
And I do keep looking at the book. It’s just, I would rather keep working on my own novel instead of reading someone else’s novel about a similar premise.
But I really need to do it. I really do.
