Greetings to all from Turkey.
: Are we a little behind?
I am way ahead of you guys, in fact, 7 hours ahead of you. I flew to Ankara on 8th of May. I was planning to tell you guys but the last days before the trip were very hectic and I couldn't.
Back in Ottawa, as soon as I finished Turgenev, I picked up a book which I believed to be the April book: Aunt Julia and the Scriptwriter. By the time I checked our reading schedule for 2008, it was already too late to drop Aunt Julia, so I am really truly ahead of you guys.
I did take Mist and Confederacy of Dunces with me on the trip, so hopefully I will finish those before returning back to Ottawa.
I do not have "Suite Francaise" and it is too late now to acquire it on time, so I guess I will have to skip that book for at least a while.
I am loving "Aunt Julia and the Scriptwrite" it is so entertaining.
: I started Mist this evening. I'm not
: a big favorite picker, but wow, I love this book.
Good to know! I was a little bit hesitant due to the title.
: want to give a word of advise for reading it.
I will follow the advise, thank you.
I usually skip the introduction (by other others (they always give away everything there is to give away about the book)) and read the prologues.
Steven, have a nice trip. I am envious too. I always wanted to see St. Petersburg. Well, not *always* but since I've read Crime and Punishment.
