And Amy, I figure all we can do is start, and keep plugging away, right? Isabella, what 600p book are you trying to finish? And Amy, I figure all we can do is start, and keep plugging away, right?

My fickle nature may have me cheating along the way. I’ve started, but don’t know if I can be committed enough to get through all three books in a row.

Finally decided I'd give Baroque a chance, but I also picked up GWKTHN last week hoping to get it read this last weekend, but didn't even start it, cuz I'm trying to finish another 600-page book. My Baroque reading will be limited to bed, cuz there's no way I'm lugging my hardcovers around on the subway (my other reads at least are in e-format). I'll definitely check in next week to see how you've managed! Oh, I understand.
