[Book Club] Lolita

simu

Has anyone else read this? (Don't worry, I have plenty more to say but I'd rather not be talking to an empty screen).

I'm planning on reading it on my "train trip of doom" tomorrow.

Will have opinionated wrong-headed arguments ready for posting when I get back

"Train Trip of Doom"?? Pray tell??

I'm nearly finished "For Whom The Bell Tolls", so that will be my first book for discussion.

I have to travel up and down to Dublin every two weeks for a session with a consultant. I've got a bad cough today, tomorrow won't be pretty.

Might bring two books actually, will have nothing else to do for most of tomorrow. Generally an hour's wait in the consultant's lounge before I see him.

Back on topic..

Yeah, I want to read that too. I've not been very together for the past two weeks and not been able to focus enough to read. Hopefully tomorrow's journey will get me back in the swing of things I'm a fast reader once I manage to pin myself down long enough to get into a book.

Best of luck then tomorrow. I'm also usually pretty quick, but lately all the pressures mean that my reading rate has slowed up.
