I didn't come to it with any such expectations and enjoyed it tremendously. Reading it slowly is they key.<br /><br />I nearly put <i>Lolita</i> on my list - it's one of a handful of books I really think I should have read by now.Bibliophilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10960676264710788969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6123770321542501083.post-17082397467232267632011-01-04T20:01:36.691-06:002011-01-04T20:01:36.691-06:00you can do it.

I am a readaholic and couldn't MAKE myself read that book--not even for the midterm that was only on THAT book. <br /><br />Still got an A, but damn I really didn't like that book. I think Melvile was paid by the word rather than for the whole book. <br /><br />Good luck.<br /><br />JJodi Henryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03216373059861459896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6123770321542501083.post-44822947260108539482011-01-04T19:17:56.687-06:002011-01-04T19:17:56.687-06:00Wow, this is a great list.

I liked it, but I also didn't, if that makes sense.

It's an interesting one you've got though. Glad you liked my review of The Corrections.<br /><br />Also, I watched the Sorcerer's Stone movie last week, was surprised. It's good.

There are two or three others I hope to read some time, but won't likely be read this year.<br /><br />Good luck with sticking to your resolve!:)<br /><br />RisaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
