I Should've Put This Up Months Ago...

So, at the beginning of the summer I wrote up a reading list of books I needed to read before school started again. I pretty promptly got to work on it, and then got stuck around the end of June. *coughs*NexttimeIhateabookIshouldprobablyjustputitdownnotignoreitandhopeit'llgetfinishedeventuallyanyway*coughs* Also, I got caught up in some other ( Read more... )

;)) Yeah, that might be. And it makes me feel a bit better. I've actually read two other books by her and while I didn't love them, I didn't have near as much trouble with them. One of them was also a regency-era book too and it was kind of annoying, but the other was a mystery and it wasn't too bad. Just the main characters in Lady of Quality are so annoying! Especially the main-main one; she's very modern and "witty" and basically she acts like she's the smartest one around and has no real charity for anyone else---even her poor brother is treated like he's a jerk when he's really trying to be a good brother and warn her about the rude womaniser who she falls in love with. GAAAAAH!!! /end rant Oh, well. I'm down to like two chapters left, so hopefully the agony will be over soon. :P Except she just caught the flu, so there'll be tons more drama before the villain romantic interest comes back and she gets to accept his proposal. :P

That's really good to hear! :) I actually started it two and a half years ago during Winter break (Haha! I read Les Mis over the previous winter break, funny. It's a good book, isn't? Kind of hard to get started on/finish at times and very long, but good :) ) but I was also taking a class, so I only made it through the first book. :">

Nice, your list sounds so much more manageable. ;)) And quite a good one---next time I should really think about quality over quantity; a few excellent books rather than a huge list of books that may be quite good but won't be read since there are so many of them. :P Did you get the reread of To Kill a Mockingbird done (such a good book!)? :)
No, I haven't read it, but I've seen it at the bookstore. I thought it looked kind of interesting, so thanks for the recommendation---I'll definitely try to read it now! :) I think I might put through a huge list of ILLs at the uni library as soon as classes start back up. ;))
