I'm so in AWE with everyone'e progress. Wow.
I've read only one book from my list so far - THE SECRET HISTORY (Donna Tartt), which I reviewed. MIDDLEMARCH is taking all my 100 effort. I don't think I can do MOBY DICK for awhile - I'll need something slim and quick and light after this Eliot tome.
I AM reading, though. I made a committment at New Year's to read and review a debut book (preferably) published by a small independent press and purchased from an Indy bookseller. I post the review the middle of the month on my blog. Just finished May's selection, so will dig in this weekend with book 3.
Peace, Linda

Eh Linda - you think you're bad.
I haven't even read ONE book since i started this thing . . .
Well i haven't read ONE fiction book since i started.
I've read plenty of academic books though . . :(
aw, guys, we have PLENTY of time!
also, let me be the first to admit i've gone a little psycho with this.
linda--as an indie press editor who specializes in debut fiction, have i mentioned you're one of my heroes? ;)
Two weeks (and a little) per book is a bit of a harsh pace. I recommend padding the list with the occasional poem, play, or short story. They're gaps, too, right?
Or a new pie recipe...
just saying
why did you have to go and bring up pie?
I figured it's not as involved as making your own foie gras and not quite as easy as cookies or buying ice cream. And it fills in the gaps...
I heart you guys.
Thanks for reminding me life's not a contest - it's the day job sneaking in.
Em, you've been running this show - our administrator extraordinaire! (are you a closet academic? I play a prof from 8-6)And yay for poems! And thanks Moonie - I'm all weepy. You know you're one of mine. Goedie, I read a recipe for rhubarb-strawberry pie - it was a very good recipe ;^)
Off to Book 2 of Middlemarch. Peace, Linda
I gotta confess, Book II is going a little slower than Book I... all the medical jargon...
I took a day off and read Jaye Wells's vampire urban fantasy in about a sitting and a half. Dang.
Linda - administrator extraordinaire!
Oh me likey that a lot :)
Well, i'm a fulltime student doing me masters, if thats being an academic lol. . . .
What are you a prof in linda?
Did my dgree in psychology, and now doing masters in Human Resource management(don't ask me how that happened - i'm not business person at all!)
I'm currently staring at my bedroom locker, middlemarch sitting all forlorn like.
Oooh, then I'll love Book II ;^)
Emily, I teach pharmacy students about the health care system and health policy (I am a pharamcist), as well as run our PhD program in pharmaceutical health services research. So I'm on the other end of the desk. Good for you getting your Masters - combined with your psychology degree, you'll do a bang up job. I bet it helps in your writing, too!
Haven't picked up MM since Tuesday. Too dang busy... Peace, Linda
