Dearest blog enthusiasts (if you still exist!),
I wanted to update you to let you know that I have not abandoned my blog. I'm merely working my way through War and Peace, and while it is not actually the longest book I have had on my list so far, I am quite busy, so it is taking me some time.
You will be pleased to know, though, that I am half done with the novel! I have officially reached the 676th page and am now simply riding the storyline down a nice, long hill to the end. :)
It is excellent, and definitely worth the time it takes to read, which is pleasant. Hurrah for Tolstoy and sunny days good for reading.
Back to Moscow, Petersburg, Natasha, Anatole, intrigue, and war.
I gave myself the task of reading 100 "classic" novels. After six years, I finished those 100, and have moved on to tackle another 100. Here are the rules I designed: (1) I must start AND finish every book. (2) I must read every book, including the ones I've already read. (3) I'm required to read all books in a series. No exceptions. (4) I'm not allowed to blog about a book before I've finished it; each book deserves its fair shot, cover to cover.
