This is hypocritical New Age gobbledegook. Avoid at all costs.

Gut-wrenching. Add civil war to the sickening list of human atrocities. May we stay humble before the Lord

Not your relaxing bedtime book

Could this book get any more sanctimonious?

So far I don't like any of these people.

Faulkner is a total vibe, and I am loving it so far. Let's see how it goes.

This family is infuriating, and I can't wait to be done with it.

Really enjoying this book!

Such a good book! Whenever I have a spare 5 minutes, I pick it up to read a few more pages!!

Wow, it's as if nothing happens in this book. Just constant talk and worrying and trying to read between the lines. Sounds like my family, ha! That's the whole point, isn't it? To remind us of something in our own life.

Incredible book. Deep truths on prayer, faith, and abiding in Christ. Highly recommend for anybody who wants to go deeper in their relationship with God or who struggles with their prayer life.

Meriwether Lewis is so ready to get home at this point. I can't blame him!! I'm surprised at how much horse and dog they had to eat to survive.

A short photo-history book of Lincoln's Second Inaugural Address. I'm wondering if students in the US memorize anything these days: poems, soliloquys, speeches. Seems like this address would be an excellent one to memorize.

Could this book be any more amazing??

This book is so irritating...

Pretty sure this will take me seven years to finish. It's so nice to read it slowly and really think about it.

I don't need to be reading about violent, mean kids at this point.

Wow, this is really boring.

This book is already a treasure. Beautiful.

It pains me, but...

Just. Can't. Finish it.

What a great book! If you like historical fiction and don't mind some cussing and scenes in a house of ill repute.

This book is like a slow march through knee-high snow. It's arduous work. All characters (reader included) have a deep sense of foreboding. Plus can't keep track of all these characters with long Russian names. Other than that, a fine read.

Just trash and not even funny

Reading this to the boy every night. He loves and never wants me to stop. Very cool.

I kept avoiding this book at the library, because I thought it was a Kevin Bacon movie from my teenagerhood. Actually it has nothing to do with Kevin Bacon. Does anybody remember his flick "Tremors"??

Fascinating thought here. "Character is more like a bundle of habits and tendencies and interests, loosely bound together and dependent, at certain times, on circumstance and context. The reason that most of us seem to have a consistent character is that most of us are really good at controlling our environment".
