And I’ll be joining in.
I'm sharing in the War and Peace attempt. This time, I'm armed with flashcards with all (well, most) of the characters' names so I can try to keep them straight.
Seriously, Tolstoy, who names one character "Dokhturov" and another "Dolgorukov" and yet another "Dolokhov"?

No really, it’s going to work this time
So I failed miserably at my attempt to read War & Peace. I was the reading equivalent of running at full speed into a brick wall. I was not prepared for the density or references I would need to look up. I tried one other time and made it further but I wasn't really mentally in the game. Now I am ready to make another serious run at it. I started today and hope to finish in about three months.
