I'm gradually speeding up. Enjoyment factor also going up. Getting to religious parts but thankfully, it's not so annoying.

Getting a hang of Greek word pronunciation.

Luis is 48% done with Walden or, Life in the Woods

Completed a two more chapters. Stopping to read Iliad a bit was a good idea. Seems much of Thoreau's logic is firmly based on the stories of the past. Hopefully, I'll be able to finish Iliad one day.

Luis is 46% done with Walden or, Life in the Woods

Lol, who compares a mountain of weeds to a mountain of dead soldiers, drawing connections to Troy's Prince Hektor? Well, it motivated me to finally read the Iliad, so well played, Thoreau.

Luis is 6% done with The Iliad

Learning the Greek alphabet and it's mythology. Could not make progress quickly enough, for enjoyment, without the help of Kindle software.

Luis is 34% done with Real Ghost Stories

Filling in some blanks with personally accepted routes to phantasy make this book enjoyable.

Luis is 53% done with The Borrowers (The Borrowers, #1)

I was originally reading this to Aria but I feel like the accent used is outside of my understanding so I sound ignorant and lost. Will probably read more colloquial heavy English books and give it another try in a few years. Love you Aria!

Deciding to investigate cultural references a bit more thoroughly as opposed to only reading a wikipedia entry. Reading Ben Jonson's Volpone due to this so progress has slowed. Worth it.

Very interesting story on deception and gullible people. Should be a required reading to adolescent teens.

Luis is on page 19 of 103 of Discourse on Method and Meditations on First Philosophy

Not sure why I found this difficult to read before. I guess the art of the run-on sentence was lost on me at the time.

Luis is 16% done with Dracula

Getting through it again. Going to hit the boring parts soon. Hopefully it won't feel so brutal this time around.

Luis is 6% done with Wheelock's Latin (The Wheelock's Latin Series)

--6% Hoping to finish the book regardless if I start reading classical literature. Learning the complex grammar is a good mental exercise.
--5% Probably not going to end up using this as I had hoped but it has acted as motivator to better my understanding of Venetan.
