Lcsmcat You have more active reads than I do, and I thought I was overbooked! 8mo
Daisey @Lcsmcat I‘m completely #overbooked! I picked up a couple extras this past week for a bit lighter reading when I really should be playing catch up on scheduled readalongs, 8mo
Lcsmcat My two biggest will be done in October and the rest of the year I‘m going to impulse read! 8mo

Amiable @Lcsmcat @Daisey We‘re getting close to the end of #Clarissa ! I just marked my progress on GR and it said we are 85% done. I think we can, I think we can … 😀 8mo
Amiable And also… love, love, LOVE “Garp”— it‘s one of my favorite books! 8mo
Cinfhen I‘ve always meant to read GARP @Amiable 8mo
Amiable @Cinfhen Garp was my gateway into John Irving, who is now my favorite author! 8mo
Cinfhen I‘ve on,y read OWEN but I completely fell in love @Amiable and I‘ve heard this one is FABULOUS 8mo
Lcsmcat @Cinfhen New Hampshire is languishing on my shelf, but I loved OWEN too. 8mo
Amiable @Cinfhen Owen Meany is my all-time favorite. I also loved 8mo
Lcsmcat @Amiable @Daisey I‘m really, really ready to be done with Clarissa! I think an editor would have helped Richardson be more widely read. But it‘s definitely going to give us bragging rights. 8mo
Daisey @amiable @Lcsmcat I‘m at 84%, so I guess I‘m not as far behind as I thought. I‘m so ready to be done, and yes to the bragging rights! I thought going in that this would be difficult like The Tale of Genji, but I think Clarissa is actually quite a bit tougher. 8mo
Daisey @amiable @Cinfhen Garp is my first Irving book, and I‘m enjoying it. However, I needed something lighter/easier to follow while driving in unfamiliar places yesterday, which is why I started Legends & Lattes. I‘ve heard really good things about both Owen Meany & Cider House Rules, so I‘m looking forward to them someday. 8mo
Lcsmcat @Daisey I‘ve not read Genji, but I agree that, especially emotionally, this has been a tough one. 8mo
Daisey @Lcsmcat Genji has sections that are very tough emotionally in similar ways due to the treatment of women, but it‘s not so continuous. Additionally, there is absolutely beautiful description interspersed throughout the entire story. It was by no means easy, but I ended up truly appreciating it. 8mo
Cinfhen Thanks for the other recommendations and I totally forgot about CHR @Amiable soooo many Irving‘s to get to!!! 8mo
