Status Updates From Ivanhoe

my ass is so unprepared for the amount of referring to the dictionary and then the Notes embedded within. this is gonna take awhile to finish, but, i remain steadfast this is actually gonna be fun. granted, i lock in all the times of reading, as i have a habit to doze off and snooze for 10 minutes, then continue the other half.

introduction was going in circles about Ivanhoe being a romance and also a history; but also was insightful in preparing me for this read + loved the history of Scott as a person and his involvement in terms of publishing and printing. i would've soldiered on but 40 pages after, my mind is exhausted. nonetheless, i am excited!
