....... I am half way through the book....I left off on page 305....and it's not an easy read, for me, due to the way I read a book first.
When I read Big Little Lies, I made notes on the edge of the pages, noting interesting things which were not a part of the HBO series. 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!
