Book-a-month for February '06
This past Thursday, March 23rd, I finished my book-a-month for February! Yayyyy!
OK I realize I'm over three weeks behind, but The Shadow of the Wind was 486 pages long so I don't feel too bad. About 300 pages in, I was wondering if I'd chosen the wrong book for me, because while I felt it was well-written and interesting, it just wasn't grabbing me. But several pages later, something happened and suddenly it was totally worth reading. I've never had to wait that long to get into a book before. Strange sensation.
Now if I'm really industrious and clever, I can choose a book for March that I can finish in the coming week. The problem is that starting this Monday, between friends' bands being in town and the Noise Pop festival, I have a show to go to every night through the start of April. Plus I have to write about some of them, so when am I going to have time to read?
I think I'm going to choose a short book for March.
