God John Clarke is an absolute genius.Non-schoolish: picked up a copy of Oliver Twist/Great Expectations/ A Christmas Carol from a nearby shelf for an idle read, so it appears to be Dickens time.

16 Oct 2007, 10:12 AM ![]() | Finished George Eliot's Middlemarch last night... left me sobbing. I hate the day/s after you finish a really powerful book, because I generally need to read before going to bed at night, and I don't like to start a fresh book when my mind's still turning over the previous one. So I'll spend the next few nights flicking through already read pages of Middlemarch and reminiscing before I can bring myself to start another book... |

Btw, I'm reading Frankenstein too. The introduction in my book takes upapprox. 1/3 of it and it's really boring me! ------------- I'm also reading LotR and Dragon of Autumn Twilight, the first book in Dragonlance Chronicles. | |
