confession

i'm an english major. and i've only read one book by charles dickens. ever.

(when i was in high school we were supposed to read great expectations and i only read the sparknotes. that was the only time i ever did that. well, and huck finn . . . another literary classic i've heretofore avoided.)

this is that one dickens book that i've ever read:


it's my second-favorite book.

and it always makes me cry.

i'm re-reading it again, and i can't wait to finish it this time through.

i read [part of] this book too - it was great.
when i see it i always think of nathan though; he really liked it.

Good one! You ought to try David Copperfield! It is a great one that is often overshadowed.

That's okay. I only disrespect English majors who've never read Shakespeare. :)
