Probably the hardest book I ever read was The Gulag Archipelago by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. I struggled through it.
War and Peace I almost finished. I too had trouble with all the characters.
Anywhere from Thrift Stores to Target to Walton's. I have an especially hard time leaving Target without a book. The last book I bought was at the grocery store. It jumped out in front of me and said buy me.
Before I really started buying books, I lived one block away from a library. I did the same thing - read one book a day sometimes more. It was also a time when I was discovering authors I had not read before. Then all of the sudden one day, I just stopped going to the library so much.
Now...

The other one where I did laugh, and the book was a lot of fun to read is called "Wolf" by last name is Margolis. He is a dog trainer in Los...
I have not read a lot of fantasy books - the last one a long time ago called Lord Fowl's Bain (?). Any way, I had read about George MacDonald through reading C. S. Lewis' books (eventually I will read C.S. Lewis' fantasy books as well as his science fiction), and I just came across Phantastes...

Right now probably sixty a year. I go through spells of reading certain types of books. Right now, its mysteries, plus my favorite authors. I read fast and am really involved with the book.
A lot of them are archealogical books that I've collected through the years. Then I have a lot of my favorite authors - C.S. Lewis, Tony Hillerman,Set of Harry Potter books, almost all of Shakespear's plays, some classics.
Speaking of Tony Hillerman. I buy his mysteries. Anyone else read him?
I read "Smithsonian" every month. I also get Country Living. And am just now getting back into reading "Mother Jones". Right now, I go to the web site.
Once and awhile, I will read Vogue. I glance through a lot of magazines when I am in lines. That the way I remain patient.
I have been reading the forums for the past couple weeks now so I thought I would join. I do a lot of reading - almost everything. I live in Oklahoma City, but I am originally from Glen Burnie, Maryland.
I have about 300 to 400 books, and they were just the ones I decided to keep. Right...
