    So far, I've read 25, though not all of them entirely I must say... Let's say 20 of them. Still have some of them on my shelf. Unfortunately I have tons of novels to read for school and my pile of books I want to read is getting higher and higher and it's driving me nutt.

    I only read 11 of them, and a few were for school assignments back then. Still work to do!

    According to Aldous Huxley, D.H. Lawrence once said that Balzac was 'a gigantic dwarf', and in a sense the same is true of Dickens.

    My current cound is 62 and I am in the process of reading Les Mis

    Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before. ~ Edgar Allan Poe
