Happy Birthday! Early. Yay!

Wuthering Heights and Gone With the Wind are two of my favorite books. Which is strange, because I wasn't that impressed with the movie Gone With the Wind, and I thought I was going to hate Wuthering Heights. Oh, well.

All glory to the Bronte sisters!

The Scarlet Letter and The Great Gatsby are good, but they didn't really floor me, possibly because I had to read them for school. Anna Karenina did floor me, but I don't remember much of it since I was only eleven when I read it. It's actually the next thing on my reading list. Followed by Don Quixote, which I started last year and got distracted from.

And War and Peace is the only book that ever defeated me! Maybe I should try reading that one again. That's another one I read way too young, and only got about halfway through volume one before I gave up. But I don't own that one...

Anyway, all rambling aside, I approve of your reading list!

And Gaelic! I approve of Gaelic.

I'm Captain-approved? Awesome.

When I was little I did that all the time - tried to tackle big books that I really wasn't mentally equipped to understand, like One Hundred Years of Solitude. I've had to go back and reread 'em...Right now I'm thinking maybe Crime and Punishment instead of War and Peace. I just really want to get the Russian perspective into my literary repertoire.

The only book that I just couldn't slug through for the life of me was "V" by Thomas Pynchon...Dear God, I just don't have that kind of patience.
