It has taken me just about four months to get 671 pages of my copy. It is 1444 pages. Still a long way to go. My goal is to get through the book before the end of the year. As it stands, I should be finishing up with it some time in October. I have been getting through the book seemingly in twenty page chunks. There are times when I can only get through ten pages and other times I look and I've read twenty five or thirty. It all depends on the writing.

Slogging Through
At the end of December I made both the smartest and dumbest decision I have made in quite a while. I decided to tackle one of the longest most in depth novels ever written: War and Peace. I say smartest decision because it is such an engaging book. There are such wide swings in topics in the book that it feels like at times I'm not even reading the same book. I also say it is the dumbest decision because it is such a long book. Everyone knows that. I have taken one small break in reading it just because I needed to read something different. It was like a palate cleansing.
