Book 1 finished.
Love it so far. It's got everything. Real humans that sometimes are great, sometimes terrible, sometimes funny, sometimes charming, sometimes insufferable. It's got family drama. It's got a man tying a bear to a cop and throwing them in a river.
Now, from the peace and onto the war.

You know how when people climb Mount Everest and they're nearly at the top, but then they quickly learn they are at the most strenuous and dangerous part of the journey?
That's me. Only it's the first of the two epilogues. We get left on a character cliffhangar to experience essays by Tolstoy on Great Person history theory, determinism, and weird analogies about clocks, rams, and bees.
Wish the best for me.

Finished the Battle of Borodino. War is appropriately visceral and sad in this book.

I love how people are changing and growing and other people are right where they started.

Finished book 3.
This book iss beautifully written. I love how characters change to adversity. I also love how others don't change but get bowled over by stronger forces.
I love the interactions between General Kutuzov and the (young) Emporer.
I want to see what happens next to Pierre and Marya.
Overall, it's just a great experience reading this.
