What are you reading right now?


I am currently in the middle of 23 or so books, but my main book at the moment is Two Towers.

What will you be reading after that?


Probably I should start Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress soon, but whether it will be after Two Towers or in the middle of it is hard to say. The only one I can be sure of that will come after it must be The Return of the King, but I doubt that will be in March. I need to get some work done. Probably I'll look at Dennis Porter's The Pursuit of Crime: Art and Ideology in Detective Fiction again, and possibly Denis Duval by Thackeray and St. Ives and Weir of Hermiston by Stevenson. Possibly even Edwin Drood again, as well. But I hope I'll manage to read as little new stuff as possible.

How did you get on with your plans for February?


Well, I my plans were

but I intend to finish the first book of the Faerie Queene, read the two first books of Paradise Lost, some Bunyan and Benjamin. And I need to read Aphra Behn's The Rover. I am also considering reading Tolkien again on the side. Any maybe look at Byatt's The Children's Book. But I doubt I'll have the time.


I read the parts of Spenser, Milton and Benjamin I was planning to, as well as Behn's play. I have yet to start Bunyan, though. And while I read too much Tolkien, I managed to stay away from Byatt. Of course, I also read A. A. Milne's The Red House Mystery and Gaiman's Eternals, Woolf's A Room of One's Own and Hamlet, so I haven't really been all that good.

Do you plan at all?


I don't. Well, I plan for what I am supposed to read, but my pleasure reading is all spur of the moment.

Etc.


Indeed.
