I sprung for the hardback, since I liked the first two so much
This is likely to be me, however (checks calendar) I may be covered if I can wait a bit. Hmm. I don't have that much willpower, but maybe I can forget about it for a couple of weeks if I try.
I was very sad to have finished it (in a 3am bout of insomnia). It was a very satisfying process, reading it.
I'm reading "Tale of Two Cities" for the first time. You know, this Dickens fellow has quite a way with words. I think he'll go far.
Dickens is so much fun. Wait till you get to the climax, with Miss Pross! I just love the name, Miss Pross, and the fact that she is a stout, indefatigable, middle-aged handmaiden makes it that much more enjoyable. (I am sure, unless you're on page 2, that you've already met Miss Pross.)
Well, page 30, with the banker and Miss Manette. But I'll look for Miss Pross.
I always had the vague idea that I kind of liked Tolstoy, but I'm reading "The Kreutzer Sonata" and hating it.

OK, I'm done with Smoke and Shadows. Any Tanya Huff fans around who haven't bought a copy yet and would like one?
What series is that in, Matt?
