Glad to see this book on Goodreads’ database. It’s a fascinating look into history so far—not just the events but also how the story is told, the language, the perspective and the details. The civil war being referred to as the “war of rebellion” (and by a southerner) and the unapologetic retelling of police and military killing looters with no due process, it goes on and on, the signs of a different era

Finished Cymbeline, the last of the 37 plays I hadn't read.

Dr. Ruffin’s ear for the common man’s dialect is spot on and a joy to read

Second tetralogy already read, so on to Henry 8.

King John is a good.

Both tetralogies technically read. On to King. John ...

Considering it's first tetralogy stuff, Henry 6 Part II is fantastic. Mostly plot and action, but it's entertaining.

Dr. Who is going to show up

Getting better.

setting up nicely ... a little quick setting up the leading character, but classic Pratchett

first book I've tried reading on an e-reader (my iPhone) ... so far it's not impossible. seems awkward because the "book" is 1,500 pages the way I have the screen set up, but Discworld may work well in this format

HVI Part 2 next ...

T&C is a conundrum; perhaps not as bad as it seems b/c it doesn't fit into anything other than "problem play" category.

Did All's Well really suck? Hahahahahah ... i just read that again

magna est veritas, indeed

need to finish this week ... fortunately, the confusion at least is organized enough here over the finish that i sort of know what's going on. next book of the fallen, MUST MAKE PLOT MAP!

Mr. Sowerby's thread has me wanting to see that end -- does Sowerby get away with his lechery or get served with cosmic justice? obviously lucy robarts and lord lufton end up together or i know nothing of Victorian lit

i will pick a day soon to dive into this ... it won't be hard; we all know what happens: boy gets girl/parsonage/ultimate happiness in end. the end.

so far behind ... so out of touch ... but everything happens in Aren? who knows but this book is going to be really good when i read it the second time (and i pay attention!)

so, so, so much going on ... everybody's going to meet in the middle. didn't that happen in gardens of the moon?

Lady Lufton sucks ...

... and why did I have so much trouble with Barchester Towers in college? This thing is easy to follow -- even when you set it down for a few days at a time.

Troilus & Cressida next ... All's Well sucks ... only Romeo is worse

and now money enters the matter ...

didn't show much of Rakaru, did it?
