I can’t believe this is almost done. Did I mention my major motivation behind this was to force myself to do less of my reading online? It’s working, but man! I am tired.

Here’s my #13:

Farheen, I think we can all be considered crazy for trying it at all, no? But yes, Balzac or Dostoevsky does seem a bit of a stretch.

I loved my yesterday’s read - Gabriel’s Gift. I am a little confused over whether my last read should be Balzac or Dostovesky. I think both I’m crazy to even consider both of them for this project!

13 of 15 … The Mother Tongue. We are almost there. 10 and 11 had me want to quit, but yesterday’s book was a winner. I could read Bill Bryson everyday.

Oh good. You read that one, so you can add it to our “book swap pile”, and I’ll hand over Howards End is on the Landing next time we meet.

I went to an older Ian McEwan for book 13: http://www.newcenturyreading.com/2010/04/the-151515-projectday-11.html

I’m planning to read a graphic novel this evening–probably the shorter of the two that I have on hand.

Yesterday I read E.M. Forster’s Arctic Summer–just 84 pages, but I enjoyed them thoroughly.
