As the list of books I want to read grows, my list charts, my piles of books, and shelves are only becoming larger and larger, but that is okay because the perfect time will perhaps present itself and I will actually begin to read a particular book. But many times certain books tend to loiter or make about- faces.
When Alan was visiting back in May we spent quite a bit of time discussing books and various works of literature, since he is an English major afterall. Middlemarch was one of the books he mentioned I should definitely read, and when GretchenJooanna mentioned a May/June read-along for this George Eliot classic, serendipity's charm performed its magic and I joined in this read-along line and sinker. Now that it is the middle of May, I am well into Book 2, and every time I pick up this book to read a bit, I become more hooked.

I have been thinking I should read this, too! I'm currently reading Pride and Prejudice for the first (!) time although I've seen the film a million times. I love it.
Perhaps Middlemarch will be next....
