In Anna Karenina, it's a slow process because of interesting ideas I find that center on power, status, diction, rules of civility, rules concerning romantic overtures...etc.

Once I am done taking notes, first, then I begin again and read the story for the second time....bypassing all my notes because I've taken the time to study the intricate maneuvers between characters in the story....like a good chess game.



Ps/ I love both of the books I have been reading!
