Finally

So I've finally decided to get round to continuing/ really beging the litnet challange, because althugh I did read some of the books I forgot to write down what I thought while I was doing so now I must begin again. The big plus is that Ive had to concede I will not be able to take very many 'real' books with me to Prague as I want to take my laptop and I have a 20 kg weight limit... and Ive got to take work cloths and multiple shoes ...but lucky apparntly not kitchen utensils. And while everyone says Ill be able to get english books there, living in Egypt ( which obviously I know is different for one thing they dont really have any public libraries) has left me permentaly suspious of what types of books people will offer in other languges ( I might also add that they are no better in fact probably worse here in the UK as far as Ive been able to see) mostly snob books, classics prize winners.....mind numbing dullness.
So if Im to be stuck with the classics I might as well go back to the way I originally read them online, and I might as well get on the litnet challange at the same time so
I will begin with The Beast in the Jungle by Henry James mostly it must be addmitted because well I woke up thinking oh I need to read that again.
