Reading as a family. A few pages at a time.

I need to finish this!

I doubt this woman could say "Hello" in 5 words or less.

I like it, but I'm reading it slowly, slowly, slowly. Not a huge fan of the perpetual flashbacks.

I'm enjoying it. But at this point it seems like the lesson of starting an epidemic is: Have the right people say the right message at the right time and place. Umm, ... AND???

Not sure I'm going to finish this one. At this point I'd like the main character to fail. That's how much I love him.

Almost done!

Difficult book to read. A lot of unnecessary words. It's distracting and hard to follow.

Woah. This is a political diatribe! I have a hard time imagining why it would be useful to make 6th graders read this.

Slow-moving, but the characters are great. Still, I have to take breaks now and again. Read something lighter.

Ah! Only 40 pages left! It's going faster now. I've also stopped reading it as in depth as I normally do. It's a good arrangement.

On hold until I finish a few other books. This book takes FOREVER! and I've temporarily lost interest.

Skip the introduction. Trust me.

Easy, quick read. Full of stats that will make you want to cry.

McCullough writes DENSE non-fiction. It's a good book, but I'm not sure I'm really impressed with it. I've seen n on-fiction done better.

That's it! I'm finishing this book this week. How long have I been "currently reading" this one? Sheesh.

His tendency to take himself off-topic is distracting to say the least! I have to really focus to read this book, just to remember what we're actually talking about!

Gah! Am I supposed to have some SYMPATHY for this kid? Ugh.

He's been trying my patience! But this chapter (the next to last) has gotten good again, so it should be just a short read to the end.
