Dante
Dante is starting Joseph Andrews (Dover Thrift Editions)
This novel is a contrast to Tom Jones. It's incredibly uninteresting.

Dante is starting The History of Tom Jones, a Foundling
Almost done with this novel. What a story. Absolutely wild and unexpected. Every page dripping with wit, elegance, and humour. I'm just utterly flabbergasted.

Dante is starting The History of Tom Jones, a Foundling
Recently started reading this and am blown away. Each page so far is dense with wit, elegant language, and humour. The quality of its prose is like honey to the brain -- or more appropriately, like a delectable meal to the mind. If you're looking for something different or "new" to read -- it's an old book but will be a new discovery for many -- then may I suggest you try this one.

Dante is starting The Great Conversation: The Substance Of A Liberal Education (Great Books Of The Western World, #1)
The idea behind this book is simple: Liberal education helps us become truly a man or woman -- i.e., a gentleman or lady.

Dante is 75% done with The History of Sir Charles Grandison, Volume 3
I can't put this book down! There should be more people reading and raving about this book, but very few people are aware that it exists. If you're wondering how good it really is, here's a hint: It's one of Jane Austen's favorite series of novels.

Dante is starting Eloquent JavaScript
I'm an absolute beginner to programming in general and JavaScript in particular. I picked this book up because it was recommended as a book for beginners. But it's frustrating to read. It's not for beginners at all. It's a book for people who already have a basic, even intermediate knowledge, of JS.

Dante
Dante is finished with Crazy Rich Asians (Crazy Rich Asians, #1)
Astrid's husband, Michael, is such a drama king, isn't he? His characterization is just so unrealistic. I'm not sure whether to give this book one or two stars.
