Cazxxx “I find it wholesome to be alone the greater part of the time. To be in company, even with the best, is soon wearisome and dissipating. I love to be alone. I never found the companion that was so companionable as solitude.” Love this quote from the book. Sums me up perfectly! 11mo
AllDebooks @Cazxxx absolutely, me too. I kept pausing to think I'm not the only hibernating hermit! 😅 11mo

Graywacke I‘m enjoying it. An oddity, I think. I‘m about 40% through. Next chapter is The Bean Field. 11mo
Cazxxx @AllDebooks No you‘re not, I‘m a total recluse 😂 11mo
TheBookHippie @Cazxxx me too!!! That is just paradise. 11mo
AllDebooks @Graywacke so glad you're enjoying it. Tbh I did find Economy a bit of a slog to get through. I'm loving the nature parts 11mo
TheBookHippie I loved my reread. So many passages hit so close to home. 11mo
AllDebooks My favourite passage “We need the tonic of wildness...At the same time that we are earnest to explore and learn all things, we require that all things be mysterious and unexplorable, that land and sea be indefinitely wild, unsurveyed and unfathomed by us because unfathomable. We can never have enough of nature.” 11mo
Graywacke Well, I finished. 😁 7mo
AllDebooks @Graywacke that's commitment! 7mo
