It hasn't been easy. There are moments/chapters where it gets interesting, then even larger sections that are so droll that it's almost unbearable to read. But it's kind of interesting to be able to see how time has effected writing styles and the evolution of genres.

There's a related book written by a more modern writer that deals with the backstory of another character. Won't spoil though, as I'm not sure who you've met yet.

If I recall, Jane and Mr. Rochester are pretty much about to be married. I think that's around where I left off.

I've been slowly reading the book Good Omens. It's pretty amusing!

Ugh. Have managed to start 3 new books, but haven't made very much progress in the ones that have been in progress since earlier in the year. XP
My goal is to at least have Jane Eyre finished within the next 2 weeks.

i've started a book, but it's slow going, because it's my own book. i seem to be weird that way...

I wouldn't say that's weird. When a book is your, as opposed to borrowing it or checking it out of a library, there's no deadline and no pressure to finish it quickly. You can take your time and that makes it easier to go more slowly.

hmm, this is very true, Kaderin.

I was making good progress on a long and tedious book that I kept renewing, until I finally bought my own copy. Haven't touched it since.

Woo thanks to a short book/play, I have finished reading 1/4 of my goal quantity of books!
XD
But hopefully will have 2 or 3 others done soon also.

I technically have a book for June but I feel silly since it's only a handful of pages. Reading "A Boy Called Bat" now and it's super cute. One of those kids books, boy meets baby animal, it is cute, likes animal, etc. It's interesting since the main character is autistic and he's narrating the story, so it comes off as his normal approach to the world.

I seem to be reading more kids books of late. I'll call it reader's advisory material. ;)

Huh, that actually sounds pretty interesting.

Finished another book. Only, what, 7 more to go this month if I want to get caught up?

i'm passed the 1/2 way mark on my current book - For Love of Evil. after that i think i'll finish the series with And Eternity, and see what's on my reading list that my library has - i have a two-book YA series from P.C. Cast (Moon Chosen and Sun Warrior). it got mixed reviews, but i'll give at least the first one a read.

Okay, Bat was very cute. Not an active book, but cute.

Now for a complete about face, My Friend Dahmer! The graphic novel.

Still working on The Princess Diarist. I found when my mind became more active again after managing to de-stress, the book was just too light feeling. It's at my mom's right now. I'll finish it before year out so that I have at least one other book read from my shelf.

nothing wrong with cute! i reead "a Day in the Life of Marlon Bundo" --- the book from Last Week Tonight with John Oliver. it was CUTE! =D

have fun with your current reads =)

finally getting back into my reading list XD life has been hectic. to busy to even read wiht how tierd i've been at the end of the days XP
